[PATCH v11 12/12] selftests/x86: Add tests for instruction str and sldt

From: Ricardo Neri
Date: Sun Nov 05 2017 - 21:30:30 EST


The instructions str and sldt are not valid when running on virtual-8086
mode and generate an invalid operand exception. These two instructions are
protected by the Intel User-Mode Instruction Prevention (UMIP) security
feature. In protected mode, if UMIP is enabled, these instructions generate
a general protection fault if called from CPL > 0. Linux traps the general
protection fault and emulates the instructions sgdt, sidt and smsw; but not
str and sldt.

These tests are added to verify that the emulation code does not emulate
these two instructions but the expected invalid operand exception is
seen.

Tests fallback to exit with int3 in case emulation does happen.
