hi, what is the use of gates in the intel processors ? what is the use of interrupt gate ? please tell me my assumption is correct about gates. i think gates are used to provide access control to the interrupt.This is the way we can use this to restict a particular interrupt.If this is correct then the linux kernel set the interrupt 0x80 is accessible to application program and other interrupts are not accessible to application program.Am i correct ? please tell me how many segments are created when a process is created ?.What are the segments are created when we create a process ? thanks bye __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
