The whole point of putting gdt_addr at the top of the global data structure is to guarantee that is is the very fist void * in gd. The trick is how we use the 'F' segment. By loading the fs register with the physical address of gd, virtual address 0 of fs contains the address of gd. But really, we can put the address of gd anywhere, as long as we set fs to be that address > > Signed-off-by: Simon Glass > --- > arch/x86/cpu/cpu.c | 2 +- > arch/x86/include/asm/global_data.h | 12 +++++++++--- > arch/x86/lib/init_helpers.c | 2 +- > 3 files changed, 11 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/arch/x86/cpu/cpu.c b/arch/x86/cpu/cpu.c > index e9bb0d7..c276aa6 100644 > --- a/arch/x86/cpu/cpu.c > +++ b/arch/x86/cpu/cpu.c > @@ -92,7 +92,7 @@ static void load_gdt(const u64 *boot_gdt, u16 num_entries) > > void init_gd(gd_t *id, u64 *gdt_addr) > { > - id->gd_addr = (ulong)id; > + id->arch.gd_addr = (ulong)id; > setup_gdt(id, gdt_addr); If the original code had been: setup_gdt(&(id->gd_addr), gdt_addr); There would have been no reliance on gd_addr being the first member of gd. So change this to: setup_gdt(&(id->arch.gd_addr), gdt_addr); And you should be pretty much set - and gd_addr can be anywhere in the arch gd. > } > > diff --git a/arch/x86/include/asm/global_data.h b/arch/x86/include/asm/global_data.h > index 3df83bb..d2eb00a 100644 > --- a/arch/x86/include/asm/global_data.h > +++ b/arch/x86/include/asm/global_data.h > @@ -28,8 +28,16 @@ > > /* Architecture-specific global data */ > struct arch_global_data { > - unsigned long gdt_addr; /* Location of GDT */ > + /* > + * NOTE: gd_addr MUST be first member of struct global_data! > + * > + * But it now isn't, so this is sure to break x86.
