Part of the work also involved improving some [system calls](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_call) (the so-called `SVCs`) -by implementing missing services such as `UnmapSharedMemory`, or making the implementation of other calls more robust (e.g. better error checking, etc.). +by implementing missing services such as `UnmapSharedMemory`, and making the implementation of other calls more robust (e.g. better error checking, etc.). These `SVC`s are functions used by games or user software to signal the OS that they want to perform operations for which they do not have the necessary permissions, such as access to hardware elements — for example, some I/O devices. Thus, a process asks the entity with the highest permissions — that is, the kernel — to perform these actions on its behalf.
