I've been able to change the keyboard layout/mapping when the X Window System is running using ~/.Xmodmap (and I suppose you could also do it through the X protocol directly, eg. using libxcb as a wrapper around X protocol calls).



I've been able to do the same (somewhat) on the console/tty (ie. when X is not running) using loadkeys.




Is there a way to customize the keyboard layout similarly, but from a single source, in such a way that it affects both X and the console, ie. in a way that is "X-and-console agnostic"?




(The only way I can think of is by writing a "keyboard driver" that talks to the kernel's input interface, evdev, and sends the input you want (through uinput?), or something, but I don't know if this even makes sense, or if there's an easier way.)

          How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

          Image
          Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
