I traced the vcmd command. When the vcmd command is run and without
arguments, the error is:
syscall: unknown syscall trap 0xef000139

This syscall error is occured while "num_ret = vserver(num_cmd, num_id,
data);" is executed. I guss ARM is using a different method to register new
syscall?

Thanks,
Wenbin
