14. testmycall.h (new user space header file to be created)

testmycall.h

1. Create a header file called testmycall.h. This header file should be included by any program calling our system call. [Open Source Svelte]

2. Add three lines to it

1. Line 1: This is needed because we need the definition of _syscall1. .:: yogicentral.science ::.

#include<linux/unistd.h>

1. Line 2: This is needed because we need the number of our system call. .:: beras11.gitbook.io ::.

#define __NR_mycall 317

1. Line 3: This is needed for system calls with 1 argument. It is explained in detail below. [Research Paper: Object-oriented programming]

_syscall1(long, mycall, int, i)

So, our user header file looks like:

/*---Start of header file------*/

#include<linux/unistd.h>

#define __NR_mycall 317

_syscall1(long, mycall, int, i)

/*---End of header file--------*/
