Rusty Russellf938d2c2007-07-26 10:41:02 -07001/*P:600 The x86 architecture has segments, which involve a table of descriptors
2 * which can be used to do funky things with virtual address interpretation.
3 * We originally used to use segments so the Guest couldn't alter the
4 * Guest<->Host Switcher, and then we had to trim Guest segments, and restore
5 * for userspace per-thread segments, but trim again for on userspace->kernel
6 * transitions... This nightmarish creation was contained within this file,
7 * where we knew not to tread without heavy armament and a change of underwear.
8 *
9 * In these modern times, the segment handling code consists of simple sanity
10 * checks, and the worst you'll experience reading this code is butterfly-rash
11 * from frolicking through its parklike serenity. :*/

Rusty Russellbff672e2007-07-26 10:41:04 -070015 * Segments & The Global Descriptor Table
16 *
17 * (That title sounds like a bad Nerdcore group. Not to suggest that there are
18 * any good Nerdcore groups, but in high school a friend of mine had a band
19 * called Joe Fish and the Chips, so there are definitely worse band names).
20 *
21 * To refresh: the GDT is a table of 8-byte values describing segments. Once
22 * set up, these segments can be loaded into one of the 6 "segment registers".
23 *
24 * GDT entries are passed around as "struct desc_struct"s, which like IDT
25 * entries are split into two 32-bit members, "a" and "b". One day, someone
26 * will clean that up, and be declared a Hero. (No pressure, I'm just saying).
27 *
28 * Anyway, the GDT entry contains a base (the start address of the segment), a
29 * limit (the size of the segment - 1), and some flags. Sounds simple, and it
30 * would be, except those zany Intel engineers decided that it was too boring
31 * to put the base at one end, the limit at the other, and the flags in
32 * between. They decided to shotgun the bits at random throughout the 8 bytes,
33 * like so:
34 *
35 * 0 16 40 48 52 56 63
36 * [ limit part 1 ][ base part 1 ][ flags ][li][fl][base ]
37 * mit ags part 2
38 * part 2
39 *
40 * As a result, this file contains a certain amount of magic numeracy. Let's
41 * begin.
