When using "sort -nu", arm64 syscalls were lost. That is, the io_setup syscall (number 0) and all but one (typically ftruncate; 64) of the syscalls that are defined symbolically (like "#define __NR_ftruncate __NR3264_ftruncate") at the point where "sort" is applied. This creation-of-syscalls.c-scheme is, judging from comments, copy-pasted from powerpc, and worked there because at the time, its tools/arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/unistd.h had *literals*, like "#define __NR_ftruncate 93". With sort being numeric and the non-numeric key effectively evaluating to 0, the sort option "-u" means these "duplicates" are removed. There's no need to remove syscall lines with duplicate numbers for arm64 because there are none, so let's fix that by just losing the "-u". Having the table numerically sorted on syscall-number for the rest of the syscalls looks nice, so keep the "-n".

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
