Why not remove syscall instructions altogether? When libc wants to do something, it traps on an undefined instruction and then the kernel looks at the program counter to see what it should do. Seems like this would be the ultimate application of this line of thought…

I don't think that helps much. OpenBSD already only allows syscalls originating out of the libc .text section, so whether the trap itself comes from a syscall instruction or some other trap mechanism doesn't really improve security AFAICT.

Yeah but it sounds super cool doesn’t it!
