- Interrupt List, part 5 of 8

- INT 2F - Multiplex - NOTES
- AH = identifier of program which is to handle the interrupt
- 00h-7Fh reserved for DOS
- B8h-BFh reserved for networks
- C0h-FFh reserved for applications
- AL is the function code
- This is a general mechanism for verifying the presence of a TSR and
- communicating with it. When searching for a free identifier code for AH
- using the installation check (AL=00h), the calling program should set
- BX/CX/DX to 0000h and must not depend on any registers other than CS:IP
- and SS:SP to be valid on return, since numerous programs now use additional
- registers on input and/or output for the installation check.
- Note: Since the multiplex chain is growing so long, and beginning to
- experience multiplex number collisions, I am proposing an alternate
- multiplex interrupt on INT 2D. If you decide to use the alternate
- multiplex, please let me know.

- Return: AL = 00h not installed
- 01h not installed, not OK to install

- to a string of the form 'MMMMPPPPPPPPvNNNN' where MMMM is a
- short form of the manufacturer's name, PPPPPPPP is a product
- name and NNNN is the product's version number
- ----------2F---------------------------------

- point to author_name_ver table (see below)

- in *.COM programs and 0 in upper memory TSR's).

- is used in order to determine if the TSR is already resident
- and it's version code; the ':' char is used as delimiter)

- Notes: if the returned segment on a "get" is 0001h, then the offset specifies

- 04h 2N WORDs table of all error headers for table
- Offset Size Description
- 00h WORD error message number
- 02h WORD offset of error message from start of header
- error messages are count byte followed by msg
- Note: DOS 5 error tables consist of one word per error number; each word
- contains either the offset of a counted string or 0000h
-
- Call error retrieval function with:
- AX = error number
- DI = offset of error table
- Return: ES:DI -> error message (counted string)
- Notes: this function needs to access COMMAND.COM if the messages were not

- Return: DS:DX from previous invocation of this function
- ES:BX from previous invocation of this function
- Notes: IO.SYS hooks INT 13 and inserts one or more filters ahead of the
- original INT 13 handler. The first is for disk change detection
- on floppy drives, the second is for tracking formatting calls and
- correcting DMA boundary errors, the third is for working around
- problems in a particular version of IBM's ROM BIOS
- before the first call, ES:BX points at the original BIOS INT 13; DS:DX
- also points there unless IO.SYS has installed a special filter for
- hard disk reads (on systems with model byte FCh and BIOS date
- "01/10/84" only), in which case it points at the special filter
- most DOS 3.3+ disk access is via the vector in DS:DX, although a few
- functions are still invoked via an INT 13 instruction
- this is a dangerous security loophole for any virus-monitoring software
- which does not trap this call (many Bulgarian viruses are known to
- use it to get the original ROM entry point)

- Explanation: COMMAND.COM executes the result of this call in preference to
- reading a command from a batch file. Thus the batch file does not
- advance in execution for so long as SHELLB provides PSCs from its
- workspace. The PSCs are planted in SHELLB workspace by SHELLC, the user
- menu interface. The final PSC of a sequence is finished with a
- GOTO COMMON, which causes a loop back in the batch file which called
- SHELLC so as to execute SHELLC again. The check on batch file name
- permits PSCs to CALL nested batch files while PSCs are still stacked
- up for subsequent execution.

- Return: ES:BX -> callback info structure (see below) or 0000h:0000h
- Notes: called by the task switcher
- this function is hooked by clients which require notification of task
- switcher activities; the call must first be passed on to the prior
- handler with registers unchanged using a simulated interrupt. On
- return, the client must build a callback info structure and store
- the returned ES:BX in the "next" field, then return the address of
- its own callback info structure.
- a client program must add itself to the notification chain if it
- provides services to other programs; before terminating, it must
- remove itself from the chain by calling the task switcher's entry
- point with AX=0005h (see AX=4B02h)
- the task switcher entry point should not be saved, as it is subject to
- change and will be provided on any notification call
- the Windows 3.1 Standard Mode supports this API

- ES:DI -> task switcher entry point (see AX=4B02h)
- Notes: function 0000h is generally called by the program which controls or
- invokes the task switcher, rather than by the task switcher itself;
- the entry point supplied to this function is not necessarily the
- entry point to the task switcher itself, and may be 0000h:0000h. If
- any client indicates that loading is not possible, all clients will
- be called with function 0007h; thus it is possible for a client to
- receive a termination notice without a corresponding initialization
- notice.
- except for functions 0002h and 0003h, the notification handler is
- called with interrupts enabled and may make any INT 21h function
- call; interrupts must not be enabled in functions 0002h and 0003h
- function 0007h may be called with ES:DI = 0000h:0000h if the entry
- point is no longer valid

- Notes: this call replaces the address to which the network software chains on

- such that the network gets the INT 09 first unless the new handler
