[PATCH] i386: Allow a kernel not to be in ring 0
We allow for the fact that the guest kernel may not run in ring 0. This
requires some abstraction in a few places when setting %cs or checking
privilege level (user vs kernel).
This is Chris' [RFC PATCH 15/33] move segment checks to subarch, except rather
than using #define USER_MODE_MASK which depends on a config option, we use
Zach's more flexible approach of assuming ring 3 == userspace. I also used
"get_kernel_rpl()" over "get_kernel_cs()" because I think it reads better in
the code...
1) Remove the hardcoded 3 and introduce #define SEGMENT_RPL_MASK 3 2) Add a
get_kernel_rpl() macro, and don't assume it's zero.
And:
Clean up of patch for letting kernel run other than ring 0:
a. Add some comments about the SEGMENT_IS_*_CODE() macros.
b. Add a USER_RPL macro. (Code was comparing a value to a mask
in some places and to the magic number 3 in other places.)
c. Add macros for table indicator field and use them.
d. Change the entry.S tests for LDT stack segment to use the macros
