{{stub}}
There are 2 types of syscalls:
1. Syscalls using undefined ARM instruction.
2. Syscalls using ARM syscall instruction.
== Syscalls (via undefined instructions) ==
Syscalls are invoked by way of the invalid instruction handler; syscalls take the form 0xE7F000F0 | (syscall_num << 8). (E.g. E7F000F0 is syscall 0, E7F036F0 is syscall 0x36, etc.). IOS has 0x82 available syscalls.
(please feel free to contribute your own findings!)
