This # means that only those parameters which are actually needed for a # specific syscall are passed on during syscall entry, instead of # filling in six CPU registers with random user space content all the # time (which may cause serious trouble down the call chain). Those # x86-specific patches will be pushed through the x86 tree in the near # future. # # Moreover, rules on how data may be accessed may differ between kernel # data and user data. This is another reason why calling sys_xyzzy() is # generally a bad idea, and -- at most -- acceptable in arch-specific # code. # # This patchset removes all in-kernel calls to syscall functions in the # kernel with the exception of arch/. On top of this, it cleans up the # three places where many syscalls are referenced or prototyped, namely # kernel/sys_ni.c, include/linux/syscalls.h and include/linux/compat.h" # # * 'syscalls-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brodo/linux: (109 commits) #
