/* Syscalls for ARM64 :
* - registers are 64-bit
* - stack is 16-byte aligned
* - syscall number is passed in x8
* - arguments are in x0, x1, x2, x3, x4, x5
* - the system call is performed by calling svc 0
* - syscall return comes in x0.
* - the arguments are cast to long and assigned into the target registers
* which are then simply passed as registers to the asm code, so that we
* don't have to experience issues with register constraints.

Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
