[v4,05/10] tools/nolibc: add missing my_syscall6() for mips

Commit Message

Zhangjin Wu June 19, 2023, 3:47 p.m. UTC

It is able to pass the 6th argument like the 5th argument via the stack
for mips, let's add a new my_syscall6() now, see [1] for details:

  The mips/o32 system call convention passes arguments 5 through 8 on
  the user stack.

Both mmap() and pselect6() require my_syscall6().
