system call problem
hi,
where can I find the detail information about the syscall in binary instructions of linux/mips.
for example, in linux/mips:
li v0, 4140
syscall
it's a syacall of "lseek" , but how can I find that which registers will be used in this syscall , and the meaning of the arguments in the registers.
Thank you very much!
