Paging: Difference between revisions

Enabling paging is actually very simple. All that is needed is to load CR3 with the address of the page directory and to set the paging bit(PG) and protection (PE) bits of CR0. Note: setting the paging flag when the protection flag is clear causes a general-protection exception.

or eax, 0x800000000x80000001

If you want to set pages as read-only for both userspace and supervisor, replace 0x800000000x80000001 above with 0x800100000x80010001, which also sets the WP bit.
