A System call is a mechanism used by an application for requesting a service from the operating system. Examples of the services provided by the operating system are allocation and deallocation of memory, reporting of current date and time etc.
With the first method, you call your new functions as identified by their index through the syscall function. With the syscall function, you can call a system call by specifying its call index and a set of arguments. For example, the short application shown in Listing 5 calls your sys_getjiffies using its index.
