Can segments overlap in protected mode?
In real mode, segments can overlap.
In 64-bit mode, all segments are usually set to 0 so all segments overlap perfectly.
But what about protected mode?
Are you allowed to have segments overlap in protected mode?
Because of privilege level enforcement, is there any hardware level mechanism for making sure that segments don't overlap?
Please Help !
Thanks !
I didn't find the right solution from the internet.
