I would like to have an Intel or AMD manual about the i386 because
this stuff IMHO is best explained by the processor vendor but I have
only a bad german short reference. One of these days I should
"lend" one from the library...
You could try "The Indispensable Pentium Book" by Hans-Peter Messmer. [Available in German too, of course.] He wrote about 4 pages on call
gates and ring gates in the 1995 edition I have, ISBN 0-201-87727-9.
I have the Intel books on i486, Pentium, Pentium Pro and MMX (Messmer doesn't cover MMX, as his book is a little older). These are quite a
handy reference, but Messmer's book makes better reading if one needs
to devour an entire chapter. Perhaps Messmer has updated his book to
cover P-II and P-III hardware, which would be very nice, as he would
cover MMX and SSE[2].
