You can enable IDE tracing in qemu to gather more info.

Code: Select all

-trace enable=ide_*

Thanks, that helped a lot. It is definitely reading and writing data, but I'm not exactly sure what is wrong with it. I'm pretty sure this is what the code is supposed to be doing.

Here is a snippet from the output:

Code: Select all

Does anything look wrong here?

Can't say what's wrong with those lines. You should check the ide_ioport_write and ide_ioport_read functions in qemu for details, along with the general knowledge about how the IDE ATA PIO is supposed to behave.

Did you resolve the warnings/comments raised/referenced in the previous replies (for e.g. there was a warning about the block#0 of an implicitly-given raw image being marked as read-only).

Use a hex editor to examine the disk image. What if there's a bug in your code to read the disk?

According to that log, DRQ has not cleared, which means the drive is still waiting for you to complete the transfer, which means you're aborting the command by starting a new command.

It looks like the transfer is not completing because you're using 8-bit writes with a port that only accepts 16-bit writes.

The error message is actually saying that you can’t write to block 0, so it’s no wonder you don’t see a change. Either try specifically saying it’s a raw image or try writing to a different block.

I've changed the qemu command to:

Code: Select all

qemu-system-i386 -drive file=disk.img,media=disk,format=raw -cdrom Binaries/caffieneOS.iso -m 16M -boot order=dc
And now the output is:

Code: Select all

But it still does not save to the virtual hard disk when I restart the machine.

According to that log, you're reading the status register and nothing else. Is there more to the log that you haven't posted?

Re: How do I find a partition while in WSL2?

Post by Octocontrabass »

According to that log, you're not checking the status register before you send the next command. The drive will abort the write if it's not ready before you send the next command.

You're also using 32-bit writes on the 16-bit data register, which is not supported by all IDE controllers. (I'm not even sure if QEMU supports it.)

You're also using 32-bit writes on the 16-bit data register, which is not supported by all IDE controllers. (I'm not even sure if QEMU supports it.)
So I changed the ataPioWrite() function:

Code: Select all

void ataPioWrite(unsigned int LBA, unsigned short sectorcount, unsigned char *target) {
    outportb(ATA_PRIMARY_DRIVE_HEAD, 0x40); // Select master
    outportb(ATA_PRIMARY_SECCOUNT, (sectorcount >> 8) & 0xFF);  // Sector Count hi
    outportb(ATA_PRIMARY_LBA_LO, (LBA >> 24) & 0xFF); // LBA4
    outportb(ATA_PRIMARY_LBA_MID, (LBA >> 32) & 0xFF);  //LBA5
    outportb(ATA_PRIMARY_LBA_HI, (LBA >> 40) & 0xFF);  // LBA6

    outportb(ATA_PRIMARY_SECCOUNT, sectorcount & 0xFF); // Sector Count low
    outportb(ATA_PRIMARY_LBA_LO, LBA & 0xFF); // LBA1
    outportb(ATA_PRIMARY_LBA_MID, (LBA >> 8) & 0xFF);  //LBA2
    outportb(ATA_PRIMARY_LBA_HI, (LBA >> 16) & 0xFF);  // LBA3
    outportb(ATA_PRIMARY_COMM_REGSTAT, 0x34);  // WRITE SECTORS EXT command

    for (unsigned char i = 0; i < sectorcount; i++) {
        pollATA();  // Wait for it to be able to transfer data

        // Transfer the data
        for (int j = 0; j < 256; j++) { pollATA(); outportb(ATA_PRIMARY_DATA, target[i]); }
        target += 256;
    }

    // Flush the cache.
    outportb(ATA_PRIMARY_COMM_REGSTAT, 0xE7);
    // Poll for BSY.
    while (inportb(ATA_PRIMARY_COMM_REGSTAT) & STAT_BSY) {}
}
I added the pollAta(); command in the for loop and changed outportl to outportb, which is defined here:

Code: Select all

void outportb (unsigned short _port, unsigned char _data) {
    __asm__ __volatile__ ("outb %1, %0" : : "dN" (_port), "a" (_data));
}

Do you see compiler warnings for these two lines? If not, turn on more compiler warnings and then fix the problems.

The data port only accepts 16-bit writes. You are using 8-bit writes.

You need to wait for the drive to be ready before sending another command.

I fixed the compiler warning. For the writes, I am a little lost on how to write 16 bits to the register. And I have put a pollATA() before the last line.

I am sorry for all of the confusion.

You already have a function to write an 8-bit value to a port, right? Create a copy of that function, but adapted for 16 bits. Like this:

Code: Select all

void outportw (unsigned short _port, unsigned short _data) {
    __asm__ __volatile__ ("outw %1, %0" : : "dN" (_port), "a" (_data));
}

So I have fixed that, but it still is not saving. I'm starting to think it might have something to do with qemu not saving. I've removed all of the warnings its giving me and such, but it still isn't saving when I restart the OS. When I write to an LBA and read it back before restarting it, it works, but when closing qemu and rerunning the code, it does not work. I did not use snapshot mode or anything when I created the disk, so I have no clue what is wrong.

Also, adding pollATA() before outportb(ATA_PRIMARY_COMM_REGSTAT, 0xE7); causes the OS to stall. Anyways, removing that, the output is:

Code: Select all

Doesn't your pollATA() function wait for the drive to be ready to transfer data? The drive will never be ready to transfer data if the write is complete. You need to wait until the drive is ready to accept a new command instead.

You didn't provide a complete log. Does every line like this say "val 0x0000"?
