if made of a host manager which does not support the variant, only four bytes will be returned. If the variant is supported, Adaptec's WINASPI.DLL assumes that the host manager is an "advanced" one which operates in either real or protected mode (and thus does not require a DPMI INT 31/AX=0301h call to be invoked from protected mode). Support of the five-byte variant also appears to imply that an advanced ASPI host manager uses no temporary storage space except the SRB (see #1107) and the stack, and that it is fully reentrant. if called with a standard request for four bytes, even Adaptec's advanced drivers return only the requested four bytes containing the ASPI entry point address the function address is called with the address of a SCSI Request Block (see #1107) on the stack and the caller must clean up the stack SeeAlso: AX=440Ch"ASPITAPE",INT 11/AH=FFh"WD7000" Format of ASPI IOCTL result: Offset Size Description (Table 1105) 00h DWORD function address 04h BYTE number of SCSI host adapters supported by host manager (Table 1106) Values for ASPI request number: 00h "HA_INQ" host adapter inquiry / extended host adapter inquiry 01h "GET_TYPE" get device type 02h "EXEC_SIO" execute SCSI I/O 03h "ABORT_SRB" abort SRB 04h "RESET_DEV" reset SCSI device 05h "SET_HAPRMS" set host adapter parameters 06h get disk drive information Format of SCSI Request Block (64 bytes): Offset Size Description (Table 1107) 00h BYTE request number (see #1106) 01h BYTE request status (see #1108) 02h BYTE host adapter ID 03h BYTE request flags (see #1109) 04h DWORD reserved (0) ---request 00h--- 08h BYTE (ret) number of host adapters 09h BYTE (ret) target adapter ID 0Ah 16 BYTEs (ret) SCSI manager ID 1Ah 16 BYTEs (ret) host adapter ID 2Ah 16 BYTEs (ret) host adapter-unique parameters ---extended request 00h--- 04h 2 BYTEs (call) extended request signature 55h AAh (ret) if extended request supported, reply AAh 55h 06h WORD (call) length of extended buffer at offset 3Ah (ret) number of bytes returned in extended buffer 08h BYTE (ret) number of host adapters 09h BYTE (ret) target adapter ID 0Ah 16 BYTEs (ret) SCSI manager ID 1Ah 16 BYTEs (ret) host adapter ID 2Ah 16 BYTEs (ret) host adapter-unique parameters 3Ah N BYTEs extended buffer 3Ah WORD features (see #1110) 3Ch WORD maximum scatter/gather list length 3Eh DWORD maximum SCIS data transfer size (0 = unlimited) ---request 01h--- 08h BYTE target ID 09h BYTE logical unit number 0Ah BYTE (ret) device type (see #1113) ---request 02h--- 08h BYTE target ID 09h BYTE logical unit number 0Ah DWORD data allocation length (ret) residual byte length (if supported and requested) 0Eh BYTE sense allocation length 0Fh DWORD data buffer pointer 13h DWORD next request pointer (for linking) 17h BYTE CDB length 18h BYTE (ret) host adapter status (see #1107) 19h BYTE (ret) target status (see #1112) 1Ah DWORD post routine address (see #1119) 1Eh WORD real mode Post DS 20h DWORD SRB pointer 24h WORD reserved 26h DWORD SRB physical address 2Ah 22 BYTEs SCSIMGR$ workspace 40h N BYTEs CCB, including sense data (20-24 bytes) ---request 03h--- 08h DWORD address of SRB to abort ---request 04h--- 08h BYTE target ID 09h BYTE logical unit number 0Ah 14 BYTEs reserved 18h BYTE (ret) host adapter status (see #1111) 19h BYTE (ret) target status (see #1112) 1Ah DWORD post routine address 1Eh 34 BYTEs workspace ---request 05h--- 08h 16 BYTEs host adapter-unique parameters ---request 06h--- 08h BYTE target ID 09h BYTE logical unit number 0Ah BYTE disk drive flags (see #1114) 0Bh BYTE INT 13h drive number 0Ch BYTE preferred head number translation 0Dh BYTE preferred sector size translation 0Eh 10 BYTEs reserved SeeAlso: #1115 (Table 1108) Values for ASPI request status: 00h not done yet 01h completed successfully 02h aborted by host 04h SCSI I/O error 80h invalid 81h no adapter 82h no device attached else status SeeAlso: #1107 Bitfields for ASPI request flags: Bit(s) Description (Table 1109) 0 posting enabled 1 linking enabled 2 residual byte length reported in Data Allocation Length field 3 transfer from SCSI target to host 4 transfer from host to SCSI target 5 scatter/gather 7-6 reserved Note: no data is transferred if both bits 3 and 4 are set;

If present, the file may be in any of several formats which are extensions of the original .EXE format (see #1245) .COM-format executables begin running with the following register values: AL = 00h if first FCB has valid drive letter, FFh if not AH = 00h if second FCB has valid drive letter, FFh if not CS,DS,ES,SS = PSP segment SP = offset of last word available in first 64K segment (note: AX is always 0000h under DESQview) old-format executables begin running with the following register values: AL = 00h if first FCB has valid drive letter, FFh if not AH = 00h if second FCB has valid drive letter, FFh if not DS,ES = PSP segment SS:SP as defined in .EXE header (note: AX is always 0000h under DESQview) new executables begin running with the following register values AX = environment segment BX = offset of command tail in environment segment CX = size of automatic data segment (0000h = 64K) ES,BP = 0000h DS = automatic data segment SS:SP = initial stack the command tail corresponds to an old executable's PSP:0081h and following, except that the 0Dh is turned into a NUL (00h); new format executables have no PSP under the FlashTek X-32 DOS extender, only function 00h is supported and the pointers are passed in DS:EDX and ES:EBX DR DOS 6 always loads .EXE-format programs with no fixups and .COM-format programs starting with 9Ch 55h (PUSHF/PUSH BP) above the 64K mark to avoid the EXEPACK bug, by extending the memory block containing the program's environment; this code is disabled if the name of the parent program as stored in the MCB is 'WIN'.
