Note on these
Args go in their normal registers, like arg1 in R0, as usual. Syscall # goes in IP (that's intra-procedural, not instruction pointer!), a.k.a R12.
As in all ARM (i.e. also on Android) the kernel entry is accomplished by the SVC command (SWI in some debuggers and ARM dialects). On the kernel end, a low level CPU exception handler (fleh_swi) is installed as part of the ExceptionVectorsBase, and - upon issuing a SWI/SVC - control is transferred to that address. This handler can check the syscall number to distinguish between POSIX calls (non negative) and Mach traps (negative).
Unix
Usage
MOV IP, #x // number from following list into Intraprocedural, a.k.a. r12 SVC 0x80 // Formerly, SWI (software interrupt)
For example:
(gdb) disass chown 0x30d2ad54 <chown>: mov r12, #16 ; 0x10, being # of chown 0x30d2ad58 <chown+4>: svc 0x00000080
Most of these are the same as you would find in the XNU open source kernel, with ARM idiosyncrasies aside (and #372, ledger)
sysent
The system call table in XNU is known as "sysent", and is no longer a public symbol, for obvious reasons (e.g. syscall hooking). It is fairly straightforward, however, to find the sysent and its calls. While i0nic proposes a heuristic of finding the sysent based on the (still) exported kdebug symbol, this is unreliable, as the latter might change in the future (either be moved or no longer exported). A better way is to home in on the pattern of the struct sysent entries itself, i.e - as defined in bsd/sys/sysent.h:
struct sysent { /* system call table */ int16_t sy_narg; /* number of args */ int8_t sy_resv; /* reserved */ int8_t sy_flags; /* flags */ sy_call_t *sy_call; /* implementing function */ sy_munge_t *sy_arg_munge32; /* system call arguments munger for 32-bit process */ sy_munge_t *sy_arg_munge64; /* system call arguments munger for 64-bit process */ int32_t sy_return_type; /* system call return types */ uint16_t sy_arg_bytes; /* Total size of arguments in bytes for * 32-bit system calls */ };
Because system calls arguments are set in stone, it is straightforward to write code to find the signature of the first few syscalls (syscall, exit, fork..), and from there calculate the other sysent entries. A program to do so reliable on iOS has, in fact, been written, and produces the following output for iOS 5.1:
List of system calls from iOS 5.1
note: Even though a syscall is present in the table, it does not in any way imply it is functional. Auditing, for example, is not enabled in iOS (no CONFIG_AUDIT in the XNU build). Most of these syscalls are the same as those of OS X, with the exception of ledger (which actually makes a comeback in OS X Mountain Lion), and 434+ (CONFIG_EMBEDDED).

Mach
XNU also supports the Mach personality, which is distinct from that of the UNIX syscalls discussed above. Mach system calls are commonly known as "traps", and are maintained in a Mach Trap table. iOS's fleh_swi handler (the kernel entry point on the other side of the "SWI" or "SVC" command) checks the system call number - if it is negative, it is interpreted as Mach trap instead.
In iOS 5.x, the mach_trap_table is not far from the page_size export, and right next to the trap names. kern_invalid is the equivalent of ENOSYS. All the traps are ARM Thumb.
