[408]32// This hal_do_syscall() function extract from the calling thread uzone array
33// the syscall index, and the four syscall arguments.
34// Then it calls the generic do_syscall() function,
35// that calls itself the relevant kernel function, depending on the syscall index.
[16]36//
[408]37// When the generic do_syscall function returns, it saves the return value
38// in the UZ_VO slot of the returning thread uzone, and update the UZ_EPC slot.
39//
40// WARNING: The returning thread can be different from the entering thread
41// in the case of a sys_fork() system call.
