The vsyscall_ptr is the vsyscall number. This is equivalent to a proc that shows the syscall number of sys_gettimeofday, useless, cat on unistd.h and vsyscall.h will avoid a waste of kernel mem. the uml folks need to replace the vsyscalls, they just know their address, like they just know the syscall number of sys_gettimeofday.
