Preparing the next man page release, I compared the list of
system calls for i386 in 2.4.20 with the list of documented
system calls. It looks like

alloc_hugepages,
exit_group,
fgetxattr,
flistxattr,
free_hugepages,
fremovexattr,
fsetxattr,
getpmsg,
get_thread_area,
gettid,
getxattr,
io_cancel,
io_destroy,
io_getevents,
io_setup,
io_submit,
lgetxattr,
listxattr,
llistxattr,
lremovexattr,
lsetxattr,
madvise1,
putpmsg,
readahead,
removexattr,
rt_sigaction,
rt_sigpending,
rt_sigprocmask,
rt_sigqueueinfo,
rt_sigreturn,
rt_sigsuspend,
rt_sigtimedwait,
security,
set_thread_area,
setxattr,
tkill,
ugetrlimit

are undocumented so far. Contributed man pages are welcome.
