  14. [I] A hardware-independent library for executing real-mode x86 code
  15. [T] libx86 provides the capability to make real-mode x86 BIOS calls from
  16. [T] userland. lrmi provides a simple interface to this for x86 machines, but
  17. [T] this doesn't help on other platforms. libx86 provides the lrmi interface,
  18. [T] but will also run on platforms such as amd64 and alpha.
  19. [T] On x86 platforms, libx86 will use the vm86 interface provided by most
  20. [T] modern kernels in order to execute code. On non-x86 platforms, an interface
  21. [T] layer is provided to allow x86emu to be used to execute lrmi function calls.
  22. [T] The API is identical in both cases, meaning that applications can be written
  23. [T] without having to care about what's going on behind the scenes.
