linux内核fs,linux – 内核函数“get_fs()”中的“fs”缩写...

FS来自386 architecture(第二段末尾)上名为FS的附加段寄存器.

我的猜测是,在DS for Data Segment和ES for Extra Segment之后,英特尔只是选择了字母表中的下一个字符(FS,GS).您可以在右侧图形上的wiki page上看到386寄存器.

从我的Linux Mint系统上的linux内核源码(arch / x86 / include / asm / uaccess.h)：

/*

* The fs value determines whether argument validity checking should be

* performed or not. If get_fs() == USER_DS, checking is performed, with

* get_fs() == KERNEL_DS, checking is bypassed.

*

* For historical reasons, these macros are grossly misnamed.
