I have scoured the web trying to find out what happens in the
time between an application issuing the "int 0x80" instruction and the
execution of the system call handler (system_call in
/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/kernel/entry.S).
What happens before the kernel side (system_call) handler gets called ???
Using RH5.1 kernel version 2.1.119.
Many thanks, all replys greatfully received,
Rob.
