SYSARCH(2) FreeBSD System Calls Manual SYSARCH(2)
NAME
sysarch - architecture-dependent system call
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <machine/sysarch.h>
int
sysarch(int number, void *args);
DESCRIPTION
The sysarch() system call performs the architecture-dependent function
specified by number with the arguments specified by the args pointer.
The args argument is a pointer to a structure defining the actual
arguments of the function. Symbolic constants and argument structures
for the architecture-dependent functions can be found in the header file
<machine/sysarch.h>.
The sysarch() system call should never be called directly by user
programs. Instead, they should access its functions using the
architecture-dependent library.
RETURN VALUES
See the manual pages for specific architecture-dependent system calls for
information about their return values.
