Each entry is n*4 bits long, where n is the current mode in bits
Each entry uses the following format:
width: same number of bits as current mode
(higher address)
+---------------------+-------------------------+
| upper 4 bits: flags | lower 1/2: base address |
+---------------------+-------------------------+
| upper 4 bits: type | lower 1/2: limit |
+---------------------+-------------------------+
| permissions required to use |
+-----------------------------------------------+
| permissions not allowed to use |
+-----------------------------------------------+
(lower address)
Unspecified bits are ignored for the gdt's purposes
type:
0: null, inactive
1: <normal>
???
flags for <normal> type segments:
3: invert region access (specifies a region of memory not allowed for this entry)
2: readable
1: writable
0: executable
base address:
This number is added to the address for all pointers referencing this segment
limit:
This is the maximum value allowed for the address of the pointer referencing this segment
permissions required to use:
The active task must have all of the permissions set here to use this segment
permissions not allowed to use:
The active task must not have any of these permissions to use this segment
32-bit example:
