SubjectPatch 2.1.120 breaks DOSEMU (fwd)

Hi,

I can confirm the below posting from Alberto Vignani:

The ldt changes in i386/kernel/process.c _do_ break DOSEMU's DPMI.

(2.1.120 compiled with gcc-2.7.2.1, DOSEMU-binary compiled under 2.0.x).
I wonder wether Wine also may suffer.

What were these ldt changes supposed to fix?

Subject: Patch 2.1.120 breaks DOSEMU

Hi.

The changes to ldt in 2.1.120 (i386/kernel/process.c) break DPMI in
dosemu-0.97.10.
Pre-2.1.120-3 was fine. Removing that patch restores dosemu functionality.
Kernels and dosemu compiled with egcs-1.1, if that matters.

Alberto
