You will not find an `idt_ptr` structure, because if it had been in the Linux kernel source code, it would have been the same as a `gdt_ptr` but with a different name. It would make no sense to create two structures that only differ in their names. Note here that we do not fill the `Interrupt Descriptor Table` with entries, because it is too early to handle any interrupts or exceptions at this point. That's why we just fill the `IDT` with `NULL`. -After the setup of the [Interrupt descriptor table](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interrupt_descriptor_table), [Global Descriptor Table](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GDT) and other stuff we jump into [protected mode](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protected_mode) in the - [arch/x86/boot/pmjump.S](https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/16f73eb02d7e1765ccab3d2018e0bd98eb93d973/arch/x86/boot/pmjump.S).
