syscalls
This is a low-level library for listing and invoking raw Linux system calls.
Features
- Provides of all syscalls for multiple architectures (see table below).
- Provides methods for invoking raw syscalls.
- Provides an
Errno
type for Rustic error handling.
Feature Flags
std
By default, std
support is enabled. If you wish to compile in a no_std
environment, use:
syscalls = { version = "0.6", default-features = false }
with-serde
Various types can be serialized with Serde. This can be enabled with:
syscalls = { version = "0.6", features = ["with-serde"] }
Architecture Support
The Enum column means that a Sysno
enum is implemented for this
architecture.
The Invoke column means that syscalls can be invoked for this architecture.
The Stable Rust? column means that syscall invocation only requires stable Rust. Some architectures require nightly Rust because inline assembly is not yet stabilized for all architectures.

Updating the syscall list
Updates are pulled from the .tbl
files in the Linux source tree.
- Change the Linux version in
syscalls-gen/src/main.rs
to the latest version. Using a release candidate version is OK. - Run
cd syscalls-gen && cargo run
. This will regenerate the syscall tables insrc/arch/
.
