Subject: [PATCH] i386-pda updates
Date: Sat, 09 Sep 2006 01:15:30 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <45027822.2010906@goop.org> (raw)
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
Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@xensource.com>
