IDE Tutorial

[iocoder]

i think putting it in http://wiki.osdev.org/ATA_PIO_Mode is a good idea, what do you think?

[quok]

Please don't overwrite the existing ATA PIO Mode article. I think you should create a new wiki article for your tutorial. Put it in your user namespace until you have the article finished, and then it can be linked in to the main namespace later.

I'm not here to overwrite the efforts of others.

I thought that i can't create a new wiki article, but i will do as you said above and when i finish and the article is ready to be linked, i will declare here. thanx a lot.

if your logged in then just go to your user page and write your tutorial there(well convert it to wiki) and then when it's more complete you can move it into an actual page and link it with tutorials and all that jazz

No, you said it in a way that could confuse newcomers, while earlz said it in a way the OP can understand :)).

Excuse me, what is insl()?

InSignedLong()?

Thanks. ^-^

"insl" is a macro like "outb" and "inb". It uses the "INS" assembler instruction:

Code: Select all

#define insl(port, buffer, count) \
         __asm__ ("cld; rep; insl" :: "D" (buffer), "d" (port), "c" (count))

The "INS" instruction:

Instruction: INS
INSB
INSW
INSD (386+ only)

Note: Loads data from portto the destination ES:(E)DI (even if
destination operand is supplied). (E)DI is adjusted by the size
of the operand and incrased if Direction Flag is cleared and
decrased if the Direction Flag is set. For INSB, INSW, INSD no
operands are allowed and teh size is determined by the mnemonic.

Hi,

two points

1. i suggest to write between brackets IDE(Integrated Drive Electronics ) to distinguish it from (IDE) which mean Integrated development environment .

2. where did you got the C code in this article , is the code is public domain or something

[iocoder]

No no no no, this code is written by me, the full code.
The code was written (by me) mainly for Quafios IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) Driver, and i used it again here.
