For a long time I could not understand how to read the table GDT in protected mode processor with a segment-page conversion? For memory addresses should be considered as diskriptor local table from memory, so that's reading too passes through page conversion? Or is it bypasses page conversion, by direct memory access?

i was trying to be polite - no worries
if you can't read the manual, don't waste OUR time

we don't generally discuss kernel mode code in this forum - read the rules

One warning, don't be a smartarse or you will get shoved out the door faster than Halley's comet.

You were given sound advice, don't abuse it in here.
