Update of /cvsroot/src/sys/kern
In directory netbsd1:/var/slash-tmp/cvs-serv11303

Modified Files:
        makesyscalls.sh 
Log Message:
* remember (i.e. don't throw away) system call return types.
* Deal with multi-word system call return types (i.e. foo *, or
  struct foo *, or struct foo, etc.).
* Add a new class of system calls "INDIR" (for "indirect"), which
  is to be used to represent indirect syscalls like syscall() and
  __syscall() which are implemented in MD code and which don't want
  args structures defined.  (The old way of declaring this type of
  syscalls still works.)
* Allow system calls to be marked as having a variable number of
  arguments, by inserting "..." (no trailing comma) before the
  first hf the optional arguments in the syscall definition.  Because
  of the way syscall arguments are handled by MI code, _ALL_ syscall
  arguments must actually be included in the definition, i.e.
  "optional" arguments are either "are there or aren't," i.e. these
  aren't really varargs functions.  Therefore, for normal syscalls,
  there _must_ be arguments listed after the "...".  For INDIR
  syscalls, which really do have a variable number of arguments and
  which aren't handled via the normal mechanism, that requirement is
  not in force.
* output primitive (machine-parsable) syscall descriptions as comments
  in <sys/syscall.h>.  These can be used to easily build real function
  prototypes, or to build stub functions for use by lint.
