Interrupt List, part 5 of 11 This compilation is Copyright (c) 1989,1990,1991,1992,1993,1994 Ralf Brown --------D-2145------------------------------- INT 21 - DOS 2+ - "DUP" - DUPLICATE FILE HANDLE AH = 45h BX = file handle Return: CF clear if successful AX = new handle CF set on error AX = error code (04h,06h) (see #0770 at AH=59h) Notes: moving file pointer for either handle will also move it for the other, because both will refer to the same system file table for DOS versions prior to 3.3, file writes may be forced to disk by duplicating the file handle and closing the duplicate SeeAlso: AH=3Dh,AH=46h --------D-2146------------------------------- INT 21 - DOS 2+ - "DUP2", "FORCEDUP" - FORCE DUPLICATE FILE HANDLE AH = 46h BX = file handle CX = file handle to become duplicate of first handle Return: CF clear if successful CF set on error AX = error code (04h,06h) (see #0770 at AH=59h) Notes: closes file with handle CX if it is still open DOS 3.30 hangs if BX=CX on entry moving file pointer for either handle will also move it for the other, because both will refer to the same system file table SeeAlso: AH=3Dh,AH=45h --------D-2147------------------------------- INT 21 - DOS 2+ - "CWD" - GET CURRENT DIRECTORY AH = 47h DL = drive number (00h = default, 01h = A:, etc) DS:SI -> 64-byte buffer for ASCIZ pathname Return: CF clear if successful AX = 0100h (undocumented) CF set on error AX = error code (0Fh) (see #0770 at AH=59h) Notes: the returned path does not include a drive or the initial backslash many Microsoft products for Windows rely on AX being 0100h on success under the FlashTek X-32 DOS extender, the buffer pointer is in DS:ESI SeeAlso: AH=19h,AH=3Bh,AH=71h,INT 15/AX=DE25h --------D-2148------------------------------- INT 21 - DOS 2+ - ALLOCATE MEMORY AH = 48h BX = number of paragraphs to allocate Return: CF clear if successful AX = segment of allocated block CF set on error AX = error code (07h,08h) (see #0770 at AH=59h) BX = size of largest available block Notes: DOS 2.1-6.0 coalesces free blocks while scanning for a block to allocate .COM programs are initially allocated the largest available memory block, and should free some memory with AH=49h before attempting any allocations under the FlashTek X-32 DOS extender, EBX contains a protected-mode near pointer to the allocated block on a successful return SeeAlso: AH=49h,AH=4Ah,AH=58h,AH=83h --------D-2149------------------------------- INT 21 - DOS 2+ - FREE MEMORY AH = 49h ES = segment of block to free Return: CF clear if successful CF set on error AX = error code (07h,09h) (see #0770 at AH=59h) Notes: apparently never returns an error 07h, despite official docs; DOS 2.1+ code contains only an error 09h exit DOS 2.1-6.0 does not coalesce adjacent free blocks when a block is freed, only when a block is allocated or resized the code for this function is identical in DOS 2.1-6.0 except for calls to start/end a critical section in DOS 3+ SeeAlso: AH=48h,AH=4Ah --------D-214A------------------------------- INT 21 - DOS 2+ - RESIZE MEMORY BLOCK AH = 4Ah BX = new size in paragraphs ES = segment of block to resize Return: CF clear if successful CF set on error AX = error code (07h,08h,09h) (see #0770 at AH=59h) BX = maximum paragraphs available for specified memory block Notes: under DOS 2.1-6.0, if there is insufficient memory to expand the block as much as requested, the block will be made as large as possible DOS 2.1-6.0 coalesces any free blocks immediately following the block to be resized SeeAlso: AH=48h,AH=49h,AH=83h --------v-214A--BX00B6----------------------- INT 21 - VIRUS??? AH = 4Ah BX = 00B6h ES = CX Return: ??? Note: this call is intercepted by the Search&Destroy SDRes v27.03 bundled with Novell DOS 7, and is presumably some virus's installation check SeeAlso: AH=0Eh/DL=ADh,AH=4Ah/BX=FFFFh,AH=D2h"VIRUS" --------v-214A--BXFFFF----------------------- INT 21 - VIRUS??? AH = 4Ah BX = FFFFh CX = 0568h SI = 0129h DI = 0000h ES = BP Return: ??? Note: this call is intercepted by the Search&Destroy SDRes v27.03 bundled with Novell DOS 7, and is presumably some virus's installation check SeeAlso: AH=0Eh/DL=ADh,AH=4Ah/BX=00B6h --------D-214B------------------------------- INT 21 - DOS 2+ - "EXEC" - LOAD AND/OR EXECUTE PROGRAM AH = 4Bh AL = type of load 00h load and execute 01h load but do not execute 03h load overlay 04h load and execute in background (European MS-DOS 4.0 only) "Exec & Go" (see also AH=80h) DS:DX -> ASCIZ program name (must include extension) ES:BX -> parameter block (see #0687) CX = mode (subfunction 04h only) 0000h child placed in zombie mode after termination 0001h child's return code discarded on termination Return: CF clear if successful BX,DX destroyed if subfunction 01h, process ID set to new program's PSP; get with INT 21/AH=62h CF set on error AX = error code (01h,02h,05h,08h,0Ah,0Bh) (see #0770 at AH=59h) Notes: DOS 2.x destroys all registers, including SS:SP under ROM-based DOS, if no disk path characters (colons or slashes) are included in the program name, the name is searched for in the ROM module headers (see #0692) before searching on disk for functions 00h and 01h, the calling process must ensure that there is enough unallocated memory available; if necessary, by releasing memory with AH=49h or AH=4Ah for function 01h, the AX value to be passed to the child program is put on top of the child's stack for function 03h, DOS assumes that the overlay is being loaded into memory allocated by the caller function 01h was undocumented prior to the release of DOS 5.0 some versions (such as DR-DOS 6.0) check the parameters and parameter block and return an error if an invalid value (such as an offset of FFFFh) is found background programs under European MS-DOS 4.0 must use the new executable format .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'. BUGS: DOS 2.00 assumes that DS points at the current program's PSP Load Overlay (subfunction 03h) loads up to 512 bytes too many if the file contains additional data after the actual overlay SeeAlso: AX=4B05h,AH=4Ch,AH=4Dh,AH=64h"OS/2",AH=8Ah,INT 2E,INT 60/DI=0604h Format of EXEC parameter block for AL=00h,01h,04h: Offset Size Description (Table 0687) 00h WORD segment of environment to copy for child process (copy caller's environment if 0000h) 02h DWORD pointer to command tail to be copied into child's PSP 06h DWORD pointer to first FCB to be copied into child's PSP 0Ah DWORD pointer to second FCB to be copied into child's PSP 0Eh DWORD (AL=01h) will hold subprogram's initial SS:SP on return 12h DWORD (AL=01h) will hold entry point (CS:IP) on return Format of EXEC parameter block for AL=03h: Offset Size Description (Table 0688) 00h WORD segment at which to load overlay 02h WORD relocation factor to apply to overlay if in .EXE format Format of EXEC parameter block for FlashTek X-32: Offset Size Description (Table 0689) 00h PWORD 48-bit far pointer to environment string 06h PWORD 48-bit far pointer to command tail string (Table 0690) Values for the executable types understood by various environments: MZ old-style DOS executable NE Windows or OS/2 1.x segmented ("new") executable LE Windows virtual device driver (VxD) linear executable LX variant of LE used in OS/2 2.x W3 Windows WIN386.EXE file; a collection of LE files PE Win32 (Windows NT and Win32s) portable executable based on Unix COFF Format of .EXE file header: Offset Size Description (Table 0691) 00h 2 BYTEs .EXE signature, either "MZ" or "ZM" (5A4Dh or 4D5Ah) 02h WORD number of bytes in last 512-byte page of executable 04h WORD total number of 512-byte pages in executable (includes any partial last page) 06h WORD number of relocation entries 08h WORD header size in paragraphs 0Ah WORD minimum paragraphs of memory to allocation in addition to executable's size 0Ch WORD maximum paragraphs to allocate in addition to executable's size 0Eh WORD initial SS relative to start of executable 10h WORD initial SP 12h WORD checksum (one's complement of sum of all words in executable) 14h DWORD initial CS:IP relative to start of executable 18h WORD offset within header of relocation table 40h or greater for new-format (NE,LE,LX,W3,PE,etc.) executable 1Ah WORD overlay number (normally 0000h = main program) ---new executable--- 1Ch 4 BYTEs ??? 20h WORD behavior bits 22h 26 BYTEs reserved for additional behavior info 3Ch DWORD offset of new executable (NE,LE,etc) header within disk file, or 00000000h if plain MZ executable ---Borland TLINK--- 1Ch 2 BYTEs ???

(DR-DOS 3.41 and 5.0 do not expand asterisks) '.' and '..' in the path are resolved filespecs on local drives always start with "d:", those on network drives always start with "\\" if path string is on a JOINed drive, the returned name is the one that would be needed if the drive were not JOINed; similarly for a SUBSTed, ASSIGNed, or network drive letter. Because of this, it is possible to get a qualified name that is not legal under the current combination of SUBSTs, ASSIGNs, JOINs, and network redirections under DOS 3.3 through 6.00, a device name is translated differently if the device name does not have an explicit directory or the directory is \DEV (relative directory DEV from the root directory works correctly). In these cases, the returned string consists of the unchanged device name and extension appended to the string X:/ (forward slash instead of backward slash as in all other cases) where X is the default or explicit drive letter. functions which take pathnames require canonical paths if invoked via INT 21/AX=5D00h supported by OS/2 v1.1 compatibility box NetWare 2.1x does not support characters with the high bit set; early versions of NetWare 386 support such characters except in this call.
