+ /* Note: gas handles memory addresses in 16 bit code very poorly.
+ * In particular it doesn't appear to have a directive allowing you
+ * associate a section or even an absolute offset with a segment register.
+ *
+ * This means that anything except cs:ip relative offsets are
+ * a real pain in 16 bit mode. And explains why it is almost
+ * impossible to get gas to do lgdt correctly.
+ *
+ * One way to work around this is to have the linker do the
+ * math instead of the assembler. This solves the very
+ * practical problem of being able to write code that can
+ * be relocated.
+ *
+ * An lgdt call before we have memory enabled cannot be
+ * position independent, as we cannot execute a call
+ * instruction to get our current instruction pointer.
+ * So while this code is relocatable it isn't arbitrarily
+ * relocatable.
+ *
+ * The criteria for relocation have been relaxed to their
+ * utmost, so that we can use the same code for both
+ * our initial entry point and startup of the second CPU.
+ * The code assumes when executing at _start16bit that:
+ * (((cs & 0xfff) == 0) and (ip == _start16bit & 0xffff))
+ * or
+ * ((cs == anything) and (ip == 0)).
+ *
+ * The restrictions in reset16.inc mean that _start16bit initially
+ * must be loaded at or above 0xffff0000 or below 0x100000.
+ *
+ * The linker scripts computes gdtptr16_offset by simply returning
+ * the low 16 bits. This means that the initial segment used
+ * when start is called must be 64K aligned. This should not
+ * restrict the address as the ip address can be anything.
+ *
+ * Also load an IDT with NULL limit to prevent the 16bit IDT being used
+ * in protected mode before c_start.S sets up a 32bit IDT when entering
+ * RAM stage. In practise: CPU will shutdown on any exception.
+ * See IA32 manual Vol 3A 19.26 Interrupts.
