They are not the same when using gprof: see asm.h, in that case ENTRY does a bit more stuff. Moreover, when looking at the calls to copyin, copyinmsg, copyout and copyoutmsg, it looks like the prototypes should respectively be int copyin(const void *from, void *to, size_t size); int copyinmsg(vm_offset_t from, vm_offset_t to, size_t size); int copyout(const void *from, void *to, size_t size); int copyoutmsg(vm_offset_t from, vm_offset_t to, size_t size); May somebody more experienced with these functions confirm this? (and btw you may drop the explicit casts in a lot of cases).
