Re: [LTP] [PATCH v5 2/3] Add script to generate arch(s) dependant syscalls

Thanks for this!

I was surprised you use shell instead of python, but I see the original author
also use shell [1]. I wish he would have used python for this part, but good
that you reuse what was available.

Interesting enough how many archs the original project supports [2], which makes

Kind regards,
