[return to "OpenBSD: Removing syscall(2) from libc and kernel"]

It looks like golang is going to have to deal with — again — OpenBSD treating libc as the interface with the kernel instead of syscalls being the interface with the kernel.

I wonder if there could be some way to sign a dynamic library to allow it to create direct system calls and then pass that as a kernel command line argument at boot?

That sounds like an additional knob to tweak. The OpenBSD project is famously opposed to such knobs.
