|
<p>When the ABI of a system call is changed in the FreeBSD kernel, this
|
||
|
is implemented by leaving a compatibility system call using the old
|
||
|
ABI at the existing number and allocating a new system call number for
|
||
|
the version using the new ABI. As a convenience, when a system call
|
||
|
is caught by name (see <a href="Set-Catchpoints.html#catch-syscall">catch syscall</a>), compatibility system calls
|
||
|
are also caught.
|
||
|
</p>
|
||
|
<p>For example, FreeBSD 12 introduced a new variant of the <code>kevent</code>
|
||
|
system call and catching the <code>kevent</code> system call by name catches
|
||
|
both variants:
|
||
