No dont do that, if you look at the system call table initilization code in entry.S (see the following link), you will find that the first entry, I mean the zero index of system call table is filled with pointer to "sys_ni_syscall" system call, which is a no system call. http://lxr.linux.no/source/arch/i386/kernel/entry.S#L575 Also look at the code of "sys_ni_syscall" system call at following link http://lxr.linux.no/source/kernel/sys_ni.c#L10 So you dont need to subtract 1 from system call number. -Gaurav > > __NR_unlink is defined in "unistd.h".I think there is difference between > starting index of system call table and indexes defined in "unistd.h ". > > > > Regards, > > Dipti. > > > > > http://www.patni.com > World-Wide Partnerships.
