Should be ENTRY_COMP() if there's compat syscalls. Not all archs (of which PA-Risc is an example) seem to require the same fixups on the same syscalls. In some instances, the upper half of the register is implicitly zero on 32-bit syscall entry to a 64-bit kernel. In such cases, none of my syscalls require fixing up, assuming the pointers are automatically correct. > And those particular syscall numbers have already been assigned (blame Linus > for dropping the PA-RISC patch on the floor instead of including it in > 2.6.9). There's not a lot I can do about that, except wave a patch under Linus's nose and see who complains. Can you allocate three syscall numbers for me for parisc?
