Subject: syscall numbers larger than 255?
Date: Mon, 10 Nov 2003 10:36:33 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3FAFB081.3090900@nortelnetworks.com> (raw)


Just a quick and simple question for someone that knows the answer.

Stock 2.4.20 for i386 uses syscalls up to 252.  I want to add about a 
half-dozen new syscalls (forward porting stuff that we've got on 2.4.18).

Does x86 support syscall numbers > 255?  If yes, do I have to do 
anything special to use them? If not, what are my options?

Thanks,

Chris
