Right. As it does a system call in Linux, this should be independent of
the CPU arch
Do you mean direct access to the hardware bypassing the OS? I thought
that wasn't possible in Windows?
I don't know how the dynamic library call in Windows works.
AFAIR, all modern X86 CPUs feature a CPU register and an ASM instruction
for that purpose. As this is just a read, there is no reason for this
ASM instruction to be protected in any way.
I'll recheck ASAP.
