[okl4-developer] syscall protocol

[Charles.VANWITTENBERGHE at fr.thalesgroup.com]

Hi !

After initialization of OKL4, I tried to create a new thread from the Root Task. It seems clear for me that the correct protocol for that is to make a ThreadControl syscall.

So I wrote a few lines of assembler, to put the right values for the parameters in the right registers, and I used the instruction SYSCALL, which rise an exception. It works well, the exception is correctly handled by the kernel and I arrive in SYS_THREAD_CONTROL.

But I was wondering what was the function is the API to do that. I presume one don't always have to write assembler code to launch a syscall.
