Hello Eric,

I changed patch according to your comments.
Could you please take a look at it?

Please dont call a function to do one increment !
Yes, you are right. I have changed it.

You are touching one of the most critical part of the kernel...

Also, dont do this while interrupts are masked, this is not necessary.

Maybe better to place sysc_cnt in 'struct thread_info' because %ebp point to it.

Also you missed the fact that syscalls on i386 can use sysenter (around line 
343)

       TRACE_IRQS_OFF
       movl TI_flags(%ebp), %ecx
       testw $_TIF_ALLWORK_MASK, %cx   # current->work

I rewrote this patch for x86.   And I have question. Should /proc/PID/status
be used for these counters and this option be selectable or it will better to
create another file in /proc/PID/  directory?

I will include syscall counters for other arches later.

P.S.
Jesper Juhl, thank you.

Best regards,
Maxim.
