Subject: [PATCH] Fix asm-i386/desc.h:pack_descriptor()
Date: Sat, 09 Sep 2006 16:36:26 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <45034FFA.8000605@goop.org> (raw)
Fix pack_descriptor:
1. flags are bits 20-23 in the high word
2. limit's 4 msb are bits 16-19 in the high word
These haven't mattered so far, because all users have had small limits
and a flags setting of 0.
