35.Sh DESCRIPTION
36The
37.Fn Pissyscall
38function determines whether or not the instructions at
39.Fa addr
40in the process handle
41.Fa P
42corresponds to one of the architecture's system call instructions.
43.Pp
44the
45.Fn Pissyscall_prev
46function determines whether or not the instruction before
47.Fa addr
48in the process handle
49.Fa P
50corresponds to one of the architecture's system call instructions. If it
51does, and
52.Fa dst
53is a
54.Pf non- Dv NULL
55pointer, then the address of the system call instruction will be copied
56into the location pointed to by
57.Fa dst .
58.Sh RETURN VALUES
59Upon successful completion, the
60.Fn Pissyscall
61function returns
62.Sy non-zero
63if
64.Fa addr
65corresponds to a system call instruction. Otherwise,
66.Sy 0
67is returned.
68.Pp
69Upon successful completion, the
70.Fn Pissyscall_prev
71function returns
72.Sy non-zero
73if
74.Fa addr
75corresponds to a system call instruction and if
76.Fa dst
77is
78.Pf non- Dv NULL ,
79.Fa dst
80is updated. Otherwise,
81.Sy 0
82is returned.
