[PATCH] i386-pda updates

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Updates to i386-pda:

- fix typo
- add a self-pointer to the PDA, so that finding its
 linear address is easy
- add type checking to PDA write operations
- add byte-sized read/writes to the PDA
