/*
 * A process performs a syscall by performing an indirect call to the
 * address stored in ar.k5. The contents of ar.pfs and rp should be
 * saved prior to the syscall in r9 and r10 respectively. The kernel
 * will restore these values on return. The value of gp is preserved
 * across the call. This allows for small enough syscall stubs without
 * getting too weird.
 * The address in ar.k5 is the start of the EPC gateway page and also
 * the syscall entry point. The syscall code in the gateway page is
 * primarily responsible for increasing the privilege level, but will
 * also make sure we have a reliable psr.
 *
 * A process defines:
 *	r8		-	syscall number
 *	r9		-	copy of ar.pfs
 *	r10		-	copy of rp
 *	in0-in7		-	syscall arguments
 *
 * A syscall returns:
 *	r8+r9		-	syscall return value(s)
 *	r10		-	syscall error flag
 *	ar.pfs		-	restored from r9
 *	rp		-	restored from r10
 *	gp		-	preserved
 *
 * The EPC syscall code defines:
 *	r11		-	copy of psr.l
 *	r14		-	Kernel memory stack
 *	r15		-	Kernel register stack
 *
 * Also in the gateway page are the signal trampolines. As such, stacks
 * don't have to be made executable per se. Since debuggers have a need
 * to know about trampolines, we probably need to define a table of
 * vectors or something along those lines so that debuggers can get the
 * information they need and we have the freedom to move code around.
