Setting Up Paging: Difference between revisions

The final step is to actually enable paging. First we tell the processor where to find our page tabledirectory by putting it's address into the cr3 register. Because C code can not directly access the computer's registers, we will need to use inline assembly to set cr3. The following inline assembly is written for GCC. If you use a different compiler then you will need to translate between this assembly format and the format supported by your compiler.
