浅析 Legacy INT 13h中断函数

浅析 Legacy INT 13h中断函数

在BIOS进入UEFI时代之后，似乎Legacy BIOS的东西正在走向死亡。但传统的legacy产物退出历史舞台还需要一个过程， legacy中断就是其中之一。本文要讲的INT 13h中断函数就是legacy中断中的一种。它主要是为磁盘操作服务。

2 定义和缩写

• CHS: A method of addressing the contents of a storage device using logical cylinder (C), logical heads(H) and logical sectors(S).
• LBA: Logical Block Address
• BDA: BIOS Data Area
• ATA: AT Atachment Device, known as IDE

3 INT 13H 函数定义

Function	Definition
FN 00h	Reset Disk Subsystem
FN 01h	Get Status of Last Operation
FN 02h	Read Sectors into Memory
FN 03h	Write Sectors from Memory
FN 04h	Verify Sectors
FN 08h	Get Drive Parameters
FN 0Eh	Read Buffer
FN 0Fh	Write Buffer
FN 15h	Get Disk Type
FN 18h	Set Media Type
FN 19h	Park Heads
FN 25h	Identify Device Information
FN 41h	Check Extension Present
FN 42h	Extended Read
FN 43h	Extended Write
FN 44h	Verify Sectors
FN 45h	Lock/Unlock Media
FN 46h	Eject Removable Media
FN 48h	Get Device Parameters
FN 49h	Get Extended Media Change Status
FN 4ah	Initiate Disk Enumation
FN 4bh	Terminate Disk Enumation
FN 4ch	Initiate Disk Enumation & Boot
FN 4dh	Return Boot Catalog
FN 4eh	Set Hardware Configuration
FN 50h	Send Packet Command
FN 51h	Security Protocol Command

4 如何通过 INT 13h 判断EDD的版本

注意到 FN 41h可以check Extension Present

Entry:
    AH 41h
    BX 55AAh
    DL BIOS device number
Exit:
    Carry clear, function complete without error
    AH Versions of Extension (30h - version 3.0, 21h - version 1.1)
    AL Verdor specific
    BX AA55h
    CX Interface support bit map (See below table)
    Carry set, function complete with error
    AH 01h (invalid command)

Bit	Description
0	Fixed disk access subset shall be supported.
1	Device locking and injecting subset shall be supported
2	Enhanced Disk Drive subset shall be supported
3	64-bit Extensions are present
4:15	reserved

When the 64-bit extensions are present, the fields starting at offset 10h in the Device Address Packet are valid. 

所以只要调用FN 41h函数，然后check carry bit，确定carry bit没有被置起来，check AH的返回值。30h对应version 3.0. 21h对应version 1.1.

5. INT 13H Address Format 

使用INT 13H需要以下数据格式
