I've tried to make this little program which uses BIOS service
0xe820 to get the memory map, but my structure isn't filled...
Could someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I tested it
in asm and work perfectly...

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
    static struct _map {
        unsigned long long base;
        unsigned long long len;
        unsigned long type;
    } map __attribute__((__packed__)) = {0LL, 0LL, 0xbadbadL};

    unsigned long int eax, ebx = 0;

    do {
      asm volatile (
         "movl $0x0000e820, %%eax \n"
         "movl $0x534d4150, %%edx \n"
         "movl $0x20, %%ecx       \n"
         "int $0x15               \n"
      : "=a"(eax), "=b"(ebx)
      : "D"(&map), "b"(ebx));


    printf("base = %llu\t size = %llu\ttype = %lx\n",
          map.base, map.len, map.type);

    } while ((eax == 0x534d4150) && (ebx != 0));

    return 0;
}
