--- Comment #1 from Theron Tarigo <theron.tarigo@gmail.com> ---
FreeBSD's GDT is defined in amd64/amd64/machdep.c .
A Linux GDT can be defined in amd64/linux/linux_machdep.c , to be created upon
linux64 module load.  The appropriate GDT would then be selected with lgdt upon
context switch to or from any linux process.
