+++ title = "AMD64" description = "Syscall Compatibility Reference Documentation for AMD64" weight = 10 +++ This table is a reference of Linux syscalls for the AMD64 architecture and their compatibility status in gVisor. gVisor does not support all syscalls and some syscalls may have a partial implementation. Of 329 syscalls, 47 syscalls have a full or partial implementation. There are currently 51 unimplemented syscalls. 231 syscalls are not yet documented.
