It seems, as if crazy XP reads
00 00 as the hexadecimal representation of the opcode for the instruction add byte ptr [eax], al

Here is the relocated original(!) function from ntdll.dll

I put the function all by hand to another place in .DATA section.

But first maybe try increase .TEXT size with a PE editor and put into .TEXT and see if that helps
How can I increase .TEXT size for a PE file

With all the other functions it was no problem to use .DATA space. Only not for this crazy function.
The problem is, that there is no free place in .TEXT or I just do not find

I do not find a place in ntdll.dll, where I can relocate this (original) function.
I check all, the relocation is done correct.
Always I get this Bsod from above after relocation, even it is the identic function, just on other place.
With all the other functions, relocation was no problem.
Even no problem after relocation of RtlInterlockedFlushSList in ntdll.dll itself.
But RtlInterlockedPopEntrySList is crazy. Bsod stays the same, when I replace to the original ntoskrnl.exe.
Dietmar
This is the original function before relocation. At this original place, it works.

2000 RTM's ntdll.dll has same thing, maybe there is another way in 2000 to not using them?
EDIT: yes, it checks processor features in shared data first, it processor has no CX8 support, kernel will just skip this part.
Does it jump to those functions and return at once or how is this skip done,
thanks a lot

I notice, that with CLi and Sti I get the same error message of violating memory with my Emulator as with the original relocated code. The instruction at 7C98BAAC tried to write to an invalid address, 00007C98.
7C98BAAC is the entry point of my relocated function.
But this here is for the original, but relocated code with cmpxchg8b, for RtlInterlockedPopEntrySList.
The problem seems to be, that in ntdll.dll you cant choose any free place. But I have no idea, if another free place in ntdll.dll would work.
THE EMULATOR SEEMS TO WORK!
Relocations works in ntdll.dll for the function RtlInterlockedFlushSList with Emulator
Relocation works not in ntdll.dll, even not with original code! RtlInterlockedPopEntrySList

This I forget to clean out, but the function already dont use this place any longer.
But I have another BIG problem in NTDLL.DLL.
There seems real atomic necessary in the function . It is much sharper than in notskrnl.exe. lock cmpxchg8b qword ptr [ebp+0]
I think, with my simulator it is impossible to reach, because not real atomic. Only a try with lock bts may help,
but this complete different to my attempt. I also update my Emulator but real atomic I cant reach with this,
see second code

Voila,
here is working ntoskrnl.exe XP SP3

It is stable. Now fun starts

Now, most work is already done for XP SP3 on 486 compi

Here is ntoskrnl.exe with 3 new functions, all without any CMPXCHG8B.
Interesting, boottime goes down as much as possible. Now less than 7 sec to full desktop.

I delete in both functions the rescue of the flags and also the cli for disabling interrupts.
And voila, now no Bsod at all!!! I use my new Emulator, which is close as much as possible to the original.
XP Sp3 on 486 cpu is now only a small step away, may be tomorrow
Dietmar
Here it is the working ntoskrnl.exe
EDIT: I see, that the functions in ntdll.dll are the same as in ntoskrnl.exe for to be emulated.

I succeed to build also the second function with the new Emulator. But the same strange Bsod 0xA (xxx, 0x000000FF,...) happens without Windbg.
With Windbg connected, all is fine and superfast boot

@roytam1 This is not so much important.
I have also win2000 SP4. It is only for to get the idea

Can you make a complete ExInterlockedFlushSList in Hex Code from it?
Because of the a lot of jumps, you do not see, how they make it

In win2000, the whole list was set to 0.
But in XP SP3, ECX becomes a special structure:
ECX = ab cd 00 00, where ab is the highest byte from the 64 bit in memory and cd the next following.
And this 16 bit operation kills the 2 following bytes from ECX, because EBX = 00 00 00 00 and so bx = 00 00

Here is next try for to reach am atomic compare and exchange for to emulate CMPXCHG8B

This is not the correct use of this opcode:
In the real cmpxchg8b [EBP], there is the first check, if the value in memory (low 32 bit) is the same as in EAX.
When yes, those lower 32 bit are changed against the value in EBX.
So, using CMPXCHG [EBP], EBX offers exact this functionality,
but only for the lower 32bit of the 64 bit in memory

@pappyN4 Otherwise I would try for AVX on x64 using x86 as guide.
Ask @Mov AX, 0xDEAD for this

Oh Waaaoh
, this is a crazy nice idea.
It just mean, when you look at original ntoskrnl.exe from win2000, you see only that version with cmpxchg8b.
But when during Setup of Win2000 the installer noticed, that it has to live on a 486 cpu,
it patches all about cmpxchg8b. And not only in ntoskrnl.exe. Also ntdll.dll and each other file from the Setup.
This I will test tomrrow
Dietmar
PS: By the way I noticed my mistake in my new cmpxchg8b Emulator:
The opcode cmpxchg [pointer to 32 bit in memory], REG
changes the 32bit at the adress pointer in memory only, if the 32bit in memory are identic with EAX.
Only then the content of REG is written to those 32 bit in memory.

I succeed to relocate this crazy function
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
First, I relocate to .DATA section the RtlInterlockedFlushSList function.
This works.
Then I zero out all the place where it has been before.
Then I delete the whole crazy function RtlInterlockedPopEntrySList at its original place.
This function RtlInterlockedPopEntrySList I relocate after this to the place, where before the Flush function stays.
There I copy and past with Winhex this crazy function, set all calls by hand to this place.
And voila, with this small setting (relocation) in front of the old crazy function,
now I have after her in .TEXT section enough place for modd
