Sure, I can keep the comments in the .tbl file for all architecture.

Let me bring another example from powerpc: syscall_32.tbl, 136 common personality sys_personality ppc64_personality ---> 32-bit, compat (this is the current model which I implemented) syscall_64.tbl 136 common personality ppc64_personality ---> 64-bit I was wondering if the above table is right, how to arrange like parisc model? FYI, there are some implement missing for SPU in powerpc For your reference: SYSX_SPU(sys_newfstatat,sys_fstatat64,sys_fstatat64) SYSX_SPU(ppc64_personality,ppc64_personality,sys_personality) Thanks Firoz > > makes much more sense than > > 291 32 fstatat64 sys_fstatat64 > 291 64 newfstatat newfstatat sys_fstatat64 > > Arnd
