[PULL 14/28] target/i386: user: do not set up a valid LDT on reset
Posted by Paolo Bonzini 1 month ago
In user-mode emulation, QEMU uses the default setting of the LDT base
and limit, which places it at the bottom 64K of virtual address space.
However, by default there is no LDT at all in Linux processes, and
therefore the limit should be 0.

This is visible as a NULL pointer dereference in LSL and LAR instructions
when they try to read the LDT at an unmapped address.

Resolves: #1376
