[PATCH RFC 1/6] Basic definitions for i386-pda

From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge
Date: Sun Aug 27 2006 - 05:23:00 EST


This patch has the basic definitions of struct i386_pda, and the
segment selector in the GDT.

asm-i386/pda.h is more or less a direct copy of asm-x86_64/pda.h. The
most interesting difference is the use of _proxy_pda, which is used to
give gcc a model for the actual memory operations on the real pda
structure. No actual reference is ever made to _proxy_pda, so it is
never defined.
