Ricardo Neri 1089044428 x86/insn-eval: Incorporate segment base in linear address computation
insn_get_addr_ref() returns the effective address as defined by the
section 3.7.5.1 Vol 1 of the Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software
Developer's Manual. In order to compute the linear address, we must add
to the effective address the segment base address as set in the segment
descriptor. The segment descriptor to use depends on the register used as
operand and segment override prefixes, if any.

In most cases, the segment base address will be 0 if the USER_DS/USER32_DS
segment is used or if segmentation is not used. However, the base address
is not necessarily zero if a user programs defines its own segments. This
is possible by using a local descriptor table.

Since the effective address is a signed quantity, the unsigned segment
base address is saved in a separate variable and added to the final,
unsigned, effective address.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
