- @.H 2 "Purpose and Scope"
- @.sp
- The ISO 9660:1988 CD-ROM format provides System Use Areas within the
- Directory Records to support convenient extensibility of the specification.
- Unfortunately, no mechanism for coordinating shared use of these areas
- was provided.
- This has led to very restricted and non-standardized use of these areas.
- It is desirable to develop the following proposed standard for shared
- utilization of the System Use Areas provided by ISO 9660.

- @.H 1 "OVERVIEW"
- @.sp
- The System Use Sharing Protocol (SUSP) specifies an extension to the
- ISO 9660 format for CD-ROM which enables the shared utilization of the
- System Use Areas provided by ISO 9660:1988 for recording
- system-specific extensions to
- ISO 9660 defined by multiple independent parties.
- @.sp
- The SUSP specifies the definition of a generic field format and a set
- of generally applicable System Use Fields for recording:
- @.sp
- @.VL 15
- @.BL
- @.LI
- Continuation Areas
- @.LI
- Padding Areas
- @.LI
- Identifier that the System Use Sharing Protocol is used
- @.LI

- @.sp
- @.H 1 "TERMINOLOGY AND NOTATION"
- @.sp
- It is assumed that the SUSP is being utilized within an ISO 9660:1988
- compliant volume.
- Unless defined herein, or otherwise specified, terms shall be as defined
- in ISO 9660:1988.
- @.sp
- The following notation is used in this document.
- @.sp
- @.H 2 "Decimal and Hexadecimal Notation"
- @.sp
- Numbers in decimal notation are represented by decimal digits, namely
- 0 to 9.
- @.sp
- Numbers in hexadecimal notation are represented by hexadecimal digits,
- namely 0 to 9 and A to F, shown in parentheses.
- E.g. the hexadecimal number 7F will be written as (7F).
- @.sp
- @.H 2 "System Use Areas"
- @.sp
- ISO 9660:1988 provides System Use Areas within Directory Records.
- While a similar mechanism could be used in many other ways within the
- ISO 9660 structure, this System Use Sharing Protocol addresses only
- the System Use Areas within the Directory Records.
- @.sp
- In the descriptions in this document, the phrase "System Use Area" shall
- refer equally to the System Use Areas specified as well as any
- Continuation of the System Use Areas designated through the use of
- "CE" System Use Fields (CE is described in the section titled
- "SYSTEM USE FIELDS PROVIDED BY THIS SPECIFICATION").

- @.sp
- @.H 1 "SYSTEM USE SHARING PROTOCOL"
- @.sp
- The System Use Sharing Protocol divides any System Use Area into a
- number of variable length fields called System Use Fields.
- There may be zero or more System Use Fields in each System Use Area.
- Each System Use Field is identified by a System Use Field Signature
- Word (described below).
- @.sp
- More than one System Use Field with the same signature word is allowed,
- unless otherwise specified in the definition of a specific System Use
- Field.
- If allowed, the significance of the order, if any, of the recording of
- multiple System Use Fields with the same signature word shall be specified
- in the definition of the particular System Use Field involved.
- In all other situations, the order in which the System Use Fields
- appear is not significant.
- @.sp
- Unless otherwise specified in the definition of a specific
- System Use Field, each System Use Field recorded in the System
- Use Area of the last extent of a multi-extent file shall apply
- to all extents of the file and shall override any System Use
- Field with the same signature recorded for any other extent of
- the file.
- Thus, unless an alternate mechanism is provided in
- the definition of a specific System Use Field, failure to record
- a valid instance of the System Use Field for the final extent of
- a multi-extent file shall be treated the same as if this field
- had not been recorded for any extent of the file.
- @.sp
- With the exception of the "SP" field, which is recorded as
- specified in section 5.3, the first System Use Field
- recorded in a System Use Area of any Directory Record shall begin
- in byte LEN_SKP+1 of the System Use Area (see section 5.3 [5]).
- The first System Use Field recorded in any Continuation
- of a System Use Area shall begin in the first byte of the
- Continuation.
- If more than one System Use Field is to be
- recorded in the same System Use Area or Continuation, they shall
- be recorded contiguously.
- @.sp
- If the remaining allocated space following the last recorded System
- Use Field in a System Use Area is less than four bytes long, it
- cannot be a System Use Field and shall be ignored.
- Otherwise the use of the System Use Sharing Protocol should be terminated
- by the "ST" field or filled with the "PD" field, which are described in
- Chapter 5.
- @.sp

- @.H 1 "REQUIREMENTS FOR SYSTEMS"
- @.sp
- The System Use Sharing Protocol specifies that certain information
- shall be communicated between a user and an implementation.
- @.sp
- An information processing system that conforms to this protocol shall
- be the subject of a description which identifies the means by which
- the user may supply such information, or may obtain it when it is
- made available, as specified in this standard.
- @.sp
- @.H 2 "Requirements for an Originating System"
- @.sp
- All originating systems which claim to implement the System Use Sharing
- Protocol must comply with the protocol throughout each recorded System
- Use Area.
- @.sp
- The implementation shall be capable of recording a set of System
- Use Fields in System Use Areas that are specified in this standard,
- on a Volume Set in accordance with one of the interchange levels
- specified in ISO 9660:1988.
- @.sp
- The implementation shall allow the data preparer to supply the information
- that is to be recorded in the System Use Area according to the
- System Use Sharing Protocol and shall supply the information for a field
- if the data preparer does not supply it.
- @.sp
- @.H 2 "Requirements for a Receiving System"
- @.sp
- All receiving systems which claim to implement the System Use Sharing
- Protocol must implement the "CE" System Use Field as defined in this
- specification.
- @.sp
- Any System Use Field which the receiving system does not recognize is
- to be ignored and skipped.
- @.sp
- The implementation shall be capable of reading a set of System
- Use Fields in System Use Areas that are specified in this standard
- from a Volume Set in accordance with one of the interchange levels
- specified in ISO 9660:1988.
- @.sp
- The implementation shall allow the user to supply information sufficient
- to enable the implementation to locate the System Use Fields in System
- Use Areas required by the user, and to locate the volumes on which
- these are recorded.
- @.sp
- The implementation shall make available to the user the information
- that is recorded in each of the System Use Fields in each System
- Use Area.
- @.sp
- @.H 2 "Requirements for an Application Programming Interface"
- @.sp
- All receiving systems which claim to implement the System
- Use Sharing Protocol must implement an Application Programming
- Interface (API) to provide access to the information recorded in
- the System Use Areas within a volume.
- @.sp
- @.bp
- @.sp
- @.sp
- The API must provide a mechanism to verify the use of the
- SUSP (by checking for the existence of a valid "SP" field) and
- retrieve data recorded in the System Use Areas within a volume.
- The mechanism must, at a minimum, be able to retrieve, for each
- Directory Record:
- @.sp
- @.sp
- @.BL
- @.LI
- a complete, individual System Use Field, including all
- header information, selectable by Signature, field count
- or both; and,
- @.LI
- the contents of the Skip Area, BP 1 to LEN_SKP of the
- System Use Area of the Directory Record.
- @.LE
- @.sp
- @.sp
- Optionally, the API may also provide a mechanism to
- retrieve, for each Directory Record:
- @.sp
- @.sp
- @.BL
- @.LI
- a concatenated collection of all fields with a specific
- Signature in recorded order; or,
- @.LI
- a concatenated collection of all fields in recorded order.
- @.LE
- @.sp
- @.sp
- The mechanism to retrieve such data must be able to
- correctly and transparently interpret pertinent "CE" System Use
- Fields to assure the complete retrieval of the requested data.
- @.sp
- @.H 2 "Coexistence with other Extensions and SUSP Registry"
- @.sp
- Adherence to the System Use Sharing Protocol provides for the
- mutual coexistence of different system-specific extensions
- to ISO 9660:1988 by defining System Use Fields to be recorded
- in System Use Areas.
- @.sp
- A registry system will be established to
- monitor and record existing and new System Use Field specifications and
- distribute this information to individuals or organizations pursuing
- the implementation of new and/or compatible system-specific extensions.
- @.sp
- @.H 2 "Implementation Suggestions"
- @.sp
- For special cases, receiving systems are encouraged to provide a mechanism
- to optionally disable the System Use Sharing Protocol in its entirety.
