While cleaning up the LDT code, I noticed that kprobes code was very bogus
with respect to segment handling. Three bugs are fixed here.
1) Taking an int3 from v8086 mode could cause the kprobes code to read
a non-existent LDT.
2) The CS value is not truncated to 16 bit, which could cause an
Virtualization aware Linux kernels may need to redefine functions which write
to hardware page tables at the sub-architecture layer. Previously, this was
done by encapsulation in a split mach-xxx/pgtable-{2|3}level-ops.h file, but
having 8 pgtable header files is simply unacceptable. This goes

This round attempts to conclude all of the LDT related cleanup with some
finally nice looking LDT code, fixes for the UML build, a bugfix for
really rather nasty kprobes problems, and the basic framework for an LDT
test suite. It is really rather unfortunate that this code is so
difficult to

Yours is broken. As is arch-um.
The fix would _seem_ to be something like the appended. Can you verify?

David,
Yes, I have tested these patches. In fact I found these bugs while trying
to make the driver work on our machines.

Here is a first attempt at a patch to return register data from the
libata passthrough HDIO ioctl handlers, I needed this as the ATA
'unload immediate' command returns the success in the lbal register.
This patch applies on top of 2.6.12 and Jeffs
