Not to mention that the multics driver rings are a fairly dark corner of the processor these days, since no operating system appears to make use of 1 and 2, so nobody is inspecting them for hardware bugs. Correct, for the basic reason that there is no benefit from running things in rings 1 or 2, you can just run them at ring 0. Also, you can safely expect poor performance (eg systenter/sysexit aren’t supported).
