DL - Display the Current Local Descriptor Table

Display entries from the Local Descriptor Table. of the default thread slot. See the .S command for information of changing the default thread slot.

Syntax:

───┬─  DL   ──┬──┬─────────────────┬──────────────────────────
     ├─  DLA  ──┤  └─ s ────┬──────┬─┘
     ├─  DLP  ──┤           └─ Ln ─┘
     ├─  DLS  ──┤
     └─  DLH  ──┘

Parameters:

• Default)
  Display valid LDT entries only.
  A
  Display all LDT entries including invalid descriptors.
  P
  Obsolete option. Was used to display only valid private arena LDT descriptors where bits 3 and 4 of the selector number are 0.
  S
  Obsolete option. Was used to display only valid shared arena LDT descriptors where bits 3 and 4 of the selector number are non-zero.
  H
  Obsolete option. Was used to display only huge segment LDT descriptors.
  s
  Display descriptor for selector number s.

  Notes

  Since bit 2 of the selector determines whether the descriptor is local or global the correct table entry will be displayed regardless of whether the DL or DG command. is used. If an GDT descriptor is specified then the following message is displayed:

  GDT
  

  The requestor priority level bits (bits 0 and 1 of the selector) are ignored by DL. Thus DL 7 displays the same information as DL 6, DL 5 and DL 4.

  If the s parameter is omitted then the entire LDT is displayed.

  Ln
  The number of descriptor entries to display from and including selector s. The default is to display one descriptor entry.

  Results & Notes:

  One or more descriptor table entries are displayed. An example display follows:
