+/* Kernel syscall interface:
+ Input:
+ v0 - system call number
+ a* - arguments, as in C
+ Output:
+ a3 - zero iff successful
+ v0 - errno value on failure, else result
+
+ This macro is similar to SYSCALL in asm.h, but not completely.
+ There's room for optimization, if we assume this will continue to
+ be assembled as one file.
+
+ This macro expansions does not include the return instruction.
+ If there's no other work to be done, use something like:
+ SYSCALL(foo) ; ret
+ If there is other work to do (in fork, maybe?), do it after the
+ SYSCALL invocation. */
