I've recently written a short document on the process of adding a new
system call to Plan 9. In anticipation of numerous attacks on my
intelligence and the inevitable questioning of the legitimacy of my
parentage, no, I do not endorse the reckless addition of system calls.
I most definitely do not suggest that "kgetpid" should actually go
into the kernel; it's purely an example, one that requires very little
code to implement.
The paper is in /n/sources/contrib/john/syscall.ps or, for you fakers
who don't have Plan 9 boxes,
http://cm.bell-labs.com/sources/contrib/john/syscall.ps
Comments and corrections are welcome; flames about how I have lost the
way will be mocked.
John
