abrachet added inline comments.

Comment at: libc/config/linux/x86_64/syscall.h.inc:17
 
-inline long syscall(long __number) {
+__attribute__((always_inline)) inline long syscall(long __number) {
   long retcode;

We should just keep it then. It doesn't hurt certainly.


================
Comment at: libc/config/linux/x86_64/syscall.h.inc:90
       "=a"(retcode) :
       "a"(__number), "D"(__arg1), "S"(__arg2), "d"(__arg3), "r"(r10), "r"(r8), "r"(r9) :
       SYSCALL_CLOBBER_LIST);

> I do run clang-format with every change. However, since the names of these files do not end in `.h`, clang-format ignores them. I will play with renaming these files just to get clang-format to look at them, and then revert to the old name. Will do so in different change.
Thats a pain. It looks like there is an `--assume-filename=<string>` flag, I haven't used this yet but maybe that would be easier? https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangFormat.html
