} The "netbsd internals" page (link below) has incomplete information
} on how to add a system call: it doesn't mention considerations if the
} new system call requires a new header file (say, adding int
} sys_bar(struct foo *)). Please let me know if this is valuable, and
} I can provide the changes as a patch to the documentation source.
All documentation is valuable. Having more complete documentation
would definitely be appreciated. Thanks for the offer!
