IDT

[slacker]

would this be a valid IDT descriptor?
assume the ISR for int 0 is located at 0x200000 linear

start_idt:
;int 0
dw 0x0020 ;offset 31-16
dw 0x8e00 ;settings 16-0
dw CODEsel ;code selctor 31-16
dw 0x0000 ;offset 15-0

I think you have got the settings and code selector the wrong way round but other than that it should work if the ISR was located at 2mb

it is backwords fropm what i have but i dont understand why because the data is read from bit 31 to bit 0..right?

Hi, I sometimes do confuse these order but If you take a look at 386 programmers reference, interrupt gates are (and all data structures) defined with their low to high order byte sequence I mean at the right of all dwords(ie four bytes) they have put numbers 0,4,8... which gives us the sequence in which they should be placed in memory. I hope this clears some things...

i get it. i get it. thanks
