I am using Linux 2.6.26 kernel version and I am trying to change the interrupt descriptor table using a kernel module. I am only trying to change the page fault table entry here. So I make a copy of the original IDT and make changes to the page fault table entry only. The objective of the ISR is to print out information of the page fault before calling the original Page fault handler. But the kernel just crashes once I load it with insmod i.e it specifically crashed with the "loadIDTR" function. With further debugging, I found out that by not changing any entry if I load the IDTR it works fine. I am out of ideas.
I have pasted the code below
#include <linux/module.h> // for init_module()
#include <linux/init.h>
#include <linux/mm.h> // for get_free_page()
#include <linux/sched.h>

Your segment selector in your trap gate descriptor appears to be hardcoded to 0x0010, when it should be __KERNEL_CS (which is 0x0060 in the 2.6.26 kernel sources I have).
By the way, this is pretty baroque:
gate_desc_orig1 = (unsigned long)isr0x0E;
gate_desc = gate_desc_orig1 & 0x00000000FFFFFFFF;
gate_desc = gate_desc | ( gate_desc << 32 );
gate_desc1= 0xFFFF0000;
gate_desc1= gate_desc1 << 32;
gate_desc1= gate_desc1 | 0x0000FFFF;
gate_desc = gate_desc & gate_desc1;
gate_desc2= 0x0000EF00;
gate_desc2= gate_desc2 <<32;
gate_desc2= gate_desc2 | 0x00100000;
gate_desc = gate_desc | gate_desc2; // trap-gate
You could simplify that down to (with the __KERNEL_CS fix):
gate_desc = (unsigned long long)isr0x0E * 0x100000001ULL;
gate_desc &= 0xFFFF00000000FFFFULL;
gate_desc |= 0x0000EF0000000000ULL; // trap-gate
gate_desc |= (unsigned long long)__KERNEL_CS << 16;

Why don't you use kernel function instead of fiddling with bits manually! check it (it is initialization module func):
struct desc_ptr newidtr;
gate_desc *oldidt, *newidt;
store_idt(&__IDT_register);
oldidt = (gate_desc *)__IDT_register.address;
__IDT_page =__get_free_page(GFP_KERNEL);
if(!__IDT_page)
return -1;
newidtr.address = __IDT_page;
newidtr.size = __IDT_register.size;
newidt = (gate_desc *)newidtr.address;
memcpy(newidt, oldidt, __IDT_register.size);
pack_gate(&newidt[PGFAULT_NR], GATE_INTERRUPT, (unsigned long)isr0x0E, 0, 0, __KERNEL_CS);
__load_idt((void *)&newidtr);
smp_call_function(__load_idt, &newidtr, 0, 1);
return 0;
I have tested it it works!
For reference, here is a working implementation of a custom page fault handler for the Linux x86_64 architecture. I just tested this module myself with kernel 3.2, it works perfectly.
