Summary

These issues have low impact because they require precise circumstances
to trigger one of them. The disk must be > 2 TiB in size and either:

  • The primary GPT header is dammaged.
  • The freebsd-boot partiton is located farther than the first 2 TiB of the disc and one of its sectors takes place at a lba value that makes the higher 32 bits of this very value change.

Errors and corrections folow:

  • decl and incl don't affect CF, so replace with subl/addl $1
  • repe uses %cx, so move size to it with movw
  • moving a 64-bit value with %cx of 2 (should be 4) so addresses > 2TB will work.
