What is exactly "syscall long". Is it what the kernel understands internally as a long (which I guess doesn't necessarily match with what userspace understands as long)? I'm not so used to kernel details...
You may prefer sth like I[syscall] B[long] (which I'd say is slightly worse because the whole point is that the syscall long is not long on X32, so the long is not literal), but having them both be I would be misleading.
That makes sense. Thanks, Alex
