There is no formal list that I know of. You can look at
arch/i386/kernel/entry.S for the names and numbers of syscalls, but
for the parameters you would have to grep around for the system call
definition. 

For the syscalltrack project we have a close to complete of syscalls
and their parameters for 2.4, i386, at
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/syscalltrack/syscalltrack/module/syscalls.dat?rev=1.18

Note that such a list is of limited useful utility unless it is tied
to a specific kernel version, since the kernel gains new syscalls
occasionally. Patches to update the list to 2.5 will be happily
accepted ;-)

Cheers, 
Muli

../linux-$vers/include/asm/unistd.h

contains the syscall numbers.

The system call table for an x86 Linux kernel is at the end of
arch/i386/kernel/entry.S.  The __NR_ constants are defined in
include/asm-i386/unistd.h.

Sorry, but I don't know the equivalents for other architectures.

In the source of course:

cd /usr/src/linux

egrep -hr '^asmlinkage.+\ +sys_.+\(' *
