When we are defining a cancellable system call, the sysdep-cancel.h versions of those macros are what we really use. Each system call's object is built by a rule in sysd-syscalls generated by make-syscalls.sh that #include's this file after defining a few macros: SYSCALL_NAME syscall name SYSCALL_NARGS number of arguments this call takes SYSCALL_SYMBOL primary symbol name SYSCALL_CANCELLABLE 1 if the call is a cancelation point SYSCALL_NOERRNO 1 to define a no-errno version (see below) SYSCALL_ERRVAL 1 to define an error-value version (see below) We used to simply pipe the correct three lines below through cpp into the assembler. The main reason to have this file instead is so that stub objects can be assembled with -g and get source line information that leads a user back to a source file and these fine comments. The average user otherwise has a hard time knowing which "syscall-like" functions in libc are plain stubs and which have nontrivial C wrappers. Some versions of the "plain" stub generation macros are more than a few instructions long and the untrained eye might not distinguish them from some compiled code that inexplicably lacks source line information. */ #if SYSCALL_CANCELLABLE # include #else # include #endif /* This indirection is needed so that SYMBOL gets macro-expanded. */ #define syscall_hidden_def(SYMBOL) hidden_def (SYMBOL) #define T_PSEUDO(SYMBOL, NAME, N) PSEUDO (SYMBOL, NAME, N) #define T_PSEUDO_NOERRNO(SYMBOL, NAME, N) PSEUDO_NOERRNO (SYMBOL, NAME, N) #define T_PSEUDO_ERRVAL(SYMBOL, NAME, N) PSEUDO_ERRVAL (SYMBOL, NAME, N) #define T_PSEUDO_END(SYMBOL) PSEUDO_END (SYMBOL) #define T_PSEUDO_END_NOERRNO(SYMBOL) PSEUDO_END_NOERRNO (SYMBOL) #define T_PSEUDO_END_ERRVAL(SYMBOL) PSEUDO_END_ERRVAL (SYMBOL) #if SYSCALL_NOERRNO /* This kind of system call stub never returns an error.
