[PATCH v10 02/18] x86/boot: Relocate definition of the initial state of CR0

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Both head_32.S and head_64.S utilize the same value to initialize the
control register CR0. Also, other parts of the kernel might want to access
this initial definition (e.g., emulation code for User-Mode Instruction
Prevention uses this state to provide a sane dummy value for CR0 when
emulating the smsw instruction). Thus, relocate this definition to a
header file from which it can be conveniently accessed.
