The appendage below, if I cut/pasted it right (check the address column),
is the gas -a equivalent of my osimplay compembler for a little boot demo
called "forreal". It boots, makes a flat 32-bit ring0-only pmode, does
some other things not important to this demo like setting up an IDT, and
then turns off protection. Just turns it off. Just above the GDT data
you'll see
XOR A with A
= A to CR0
Then it loads a quad (32 bits) to VGA using a flat quad address for the
screen, 0xb8800. And there they are; two characters and two attributes in
one load, burbling happily. Runs in flat 32-bit with protection off, in
other words. I also forgot to use a short loop, so you'll see that it's a
quad relative jump.
IRQs are off. It looks like for a 32-bit unprotected OS you need
8086-style intvecs in the IDT. That's the only real annoyance I see at
this point. This occured to me because I had been assuming rmode vectors
off 0 like an 8086. So Squeal Mode is still on the slab, but Forreal Mode
is up and geekin.
Forreal Mode. Part of this complete Squeal Mode.
INT is rated faster for real mode than pmode, but that might just be
because they are talking about a 16 bit return addy. If not, Forreal Mode
should be interesting for realtime stuff and truly sophistry-free
operating systems like AmigaDos. INT I think is rated 37 clocks rmode, 59
pmode or thereabouts.
What happens when you load DS with 0xb800 or something is LAAETTR. And of
course, I wouldn't be seen in the same convention hall with a paged
Forreal Mode. Or a true 32-bit Minix.
In other words, what INTeL says you're supposed to do when going to real
mode is to be suffixed with "if you're trying to run Dos." Which was quite
legitimate concern in 1986. Conversely, aspects of a segent descriptor
persist if you flip PE after setting up the segment. Like USE32 is USE32
in real or pmode. Once USE32 is set for your code segment, rmode can't
unset it. Hence the recommended INTeL ceremonies.
