The limit value is expressed in bytes and is added to the base address to get the address of the last valid byte. A limit value of 0 results in exactly 1 valid byte. Because IDT entries are always eight bytes long, the limit should always be one less than an integral multiple of eight (that is, 8N – 1). > + .quad 0 > +SYM_DATA_END(boot_idt_desc) > + .balign 8 > +SYM_DATA_START(boot_idt) > + .rept BOOT_IDT_ENTRIES > + .quad 0 > + .quad 0 > + .endr > +SYM_DATA_END_LABEL(boot_idt, SYM_L_GLOBAL, boot_idt_end) > +
