Subject: [PATCH 6/21] i386 Fixed pnp bios limits
Date: Mon, 7 Nov 2005 20:24:44 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200511080424.jA84OicA009872@zach-dev.vmware.com> (raw)
PnP BIOS data, code, and 32-bit entry segments all have fixed limits
as well; set them in the GDT rather than adding more code. It would
be nice to add these fixups to the boot GDT rather than setting the
GDT for each CPU; perhaps I can wiggle this in later, but getting
it in before the subsys init looks tricky.
Also, make some progress on deprecating the ugly Q_SET_SEL macros.
