>=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0 int rseq(struct rseq * rseq, uint32_t rseq_len, int fla=
gs, uint32_t sig);

Really dumb question -- and one I'm sorry to bring up at the last minute. S=
hould we consider making the syscall name something more generic "register_=
tls_abi"? I'm assuming that if we ever want to use a per-thread userspace/k=
ernel ABI we'll want to use this field given the difficulty of getting adop=
tion of registration, the need to involve glibc, etc. It seems like there c=
ould be future use cases of this TLS area that have nothing to do with rseq=
.=20
