Out of curiosity how would you reimplement this file in bash? https://github.com/kaniini/slabbed-or-not/blob/master/xen-de...

In particular, the fact that it's using inline asm directly (for cpuid, ud2, some others). Maybe with 'as' but that's not exactly pure bash (and I suspect not embedding it in C would need a non-trivial main function anyway).

Reading an arbitrary memory address (for the cpuid scans) might be a bit tricky too, though it could be doable with /proc/$PID/mem.
