Subject: Re: Trapframe information
Status: OR
tf_isp original esp (probably spare - popal ignores it)
tf_trapno s/w trap no (may be spare - trap.c has already looked at it)
tf_err h/w error code (probably spare - gets discarded before iret)
___fs not stored in 386BSD pcb. Constant anyway unless user has
screwed with it (?).
___gs ditto
___orig_eip in linux, this is on the stack just before the call to the
emulator. The reason that it's not a local variable is to
avoid passing around pointers to it - current->frame (or
whatever) points to everything in the stack frame. The
macros hide a lot of slow memory references
current->frame->var.
>(And I need to see if I can map orig_eip to one of the three that I'm unsure of
>in the BSD sources)
tf_isp is the least evil.
