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.
51If it does, 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.
66Otherwise,
67.Sy 0
68is returned.

70Upon successful completion, the
71.Fn Pissyscall_prev
72function returns
73.Sy non-zero
74if
75.Fa addr
76corresponds to a system call instruction and if
77.Fa dst
78is
79.Pf non- Dv NULL ,
80.Fa dst
81is updated.
82Otherwise,
83.Sy 0
84is returned.
