User-Mode Instruction Prevention is a security feature present in new Intel processors that, when set, prevents the execution of a subset of instructions if such instructions are executed in user mode (CPL > 0). Attempting to execute such instructions causes a general protection exception. The subset of instructions comprises: * SGDT - Store Global Descriptor Table * SIDT - Store Interrupt Descriptor Table * SLDT - Store Local Descriptor Table * SMSW - Store Machine Status Word * STR - Store Task Register This feature is also added to the list of disabled-features to allow a cleaner handling of build-time configuration.
