[PATCH v8 14/28] x86/insn-eval: Add utility functions to get segment descriptor base address and limit

From: Ricardo Neri
Date: Fri Aug 18 2017 - 20:33:17 EST


With segmentation, the base address of the segment is needed to compute a
linear address. This base address is obtained from the applicable segment
descriptor. Such segment descriptor is referenced from a segment selector.
The segment selector is stored in the segment register associated with
operands in the instruction being executed or indicated in the instruction
prefixes. Thus, both a structure containing such instruction and its
prefixes as well as the register operand (specified as the offset from the
base of pt_regs) are given as inputs to the new function
insn_get_seg_base() that retrieves the base address indicated in the
segment descriptor.

The logic to obtain the segment selector is wrapped in the function
get_seg_selector() with the inputs described above. Once the selector is
known, the base address is determined. In protected mode, the selector is
used to obtain the segment descriptor and then its base address. In 64-bit
user mode, the segment base address is zero except when FS or GS are used.
In virtual-8086 mode, the base address is computed as the value of the
segment selector shifted 4 positions to the left.

In protected mode, segment limits are enforced. Thus, a function to
determine the limit of the segment is added. Segment limits are not
enforced in long or virtual-8086. For the latter, addresses are limited
to 20 bits; address size will be handled when computing the linear
address.
