The feature User-Mode Instruction Prevention present in recent Intel
processor prevents a group of instructions from being executed with
CPL > 0. Otherwise, a general protection fault is issued.
Rather than relaying this fault to the user space (in the form of a SIGSEGV
signal), the instructions protected by UMIP can be emulated to provide
dummy results. This allows to conserve the current kernel behavior and not
reveal the system resources that UMIP intends to protect (the global
descriptor and interrupt descriptor tables, the segment selectors of the
local descriptor table and the task state and the machine status word).
This emulation is needed because certain applications (e.g., WineHQ) rely
on this subset of instructions to function.
The instructions protected by UMIP can be split in two groups. Those who
return a kernel memory address (sgdt and sidt) and those who return a
value (sldt, str and smsw).
For the instructions that return a kernel memory address, the result is
emulated as the location of a dummy variable in the kernel memory space.
This is needed as applications such as WineHQ rely on the result being
located in the kernel memory space function. The limit for the GDT and the
IDT are set to zero.
The instructions sldt and str return a segment selector relative to the
base address of the global descriptor table. Since the actual address of
such table is not revealed, it makes sense to emulate the result as zero.
The instruction smsw is emulated to return zero.
