LLDT



Loads the Local Descriptor Table register (LDTR) with the 16-bit selector specified by the source operand.

The following table specifies the supported source and destination operands.

source destination(s)
reg LDTR
m16 LDTR
imm #I

DO NOT support LOCK

LLDT is available in legacy mode and compatibility mode. It is NOT supported in 64-bit mode.

The selector must be a valid index into the Global Descriptor Table (GDT) and must point to a Local Descriptor Table (LDT) descriptor. If the selector is null or the descriptor is not a valid LDT descriptor, a General Protection Exception (#GP) SHALL be generated. The instruction updates the hidden portion of the LDTR with the base address and limit from the referenced descriptor.
