AX = 0802h ES:BX -> device driver request header (see #02597)
Return:
Request header updated as per requested operation.STACK:
WORD original flags from INT call (left by RETF in device driver, at least in DOS 5.0-6.22)
Notes: Supported by DR DOS 5.0. DOS 3.2 executes this function on any AL value from 02h through F7h; DOS 4.0+ executes this function on AL=02h and AL=04h-F7h. The command codes (see #02595) and structures described below apply to all drivers which support the appropriate commands; this call is just one of a number of ways in which a device driver request may be invoked. Supported by Novell DOS 7

Note: Some drives (or controllers???) forget the change line status if another drive is accessed afterwards. The DOS IO.SYS layer takes care of this by not relying on the reported change line status when the change line is not active and a different drive is accessed, instead it reports "don't know" to the DOS kernel. ---command code 02h--- 0Dh BYTE media descriptor 0Eh DWORD transfer address -> scratch sector if NON-IBM FORMAT bit in device header set -> first FAT sector otherwise 12h DWORD pointer to BPB (set by driver) (see #01663 at INT 21/AH=53h) ---command codes 03h,0Ch--- (see also INT 21/AX=4402h"DOS 2+",INT 21/AX=4403h"DOS") 0Dh BYTE media descriptor (block devices only) 0Eh DWORD transfer address 12h WORD (call) number of bytes to read/write (ret) actual number of bytes read or written ---command codes 04h,08h,09h (except Compaq DOS 3.31, DR DOS 6)--- 0Dh BYTE media descriptor (block devices only) 0Eh DWORD transfer address 12h WORD byte count (character devices) or sector count (block devices) 14h WORD starting sector number (block devices only) 16h DWORD (DOS 3.0+) pointer to volume ID if error 0Fh returned 1Ah DWORD (DOS 4.0+) 32-bit starting sector number (block devices with device attribute word bit 1 set only) if starting sector number above is FFFFh (see INT 21/AH=52h) ---command codes 04h,08h,09h (Compaq DOS 3.31, DR DOS 6)--- 0Dh BYTE media descriptor (block devices only) 0Eh DWORD transfer address 12h WORD byte count (character devices) or sector count (block devices) 14h DWORD 32-bit starting sector number (block devices only).
Note: To reliably determine which variant of the request block for functions 04h,08h,09h has been passed to the driver, check the length field as well as the word at offset 14h. If the length is 1Eh and 14h=FFFFh, use the DWORD at 1Ah as the starting sector number; if the length is 18h, use the DWORD at 14h; otherwise, use the WORD at 14h. ---command code 05h--- 0Dh BYTE byte read from device if BUSY bit clear on return ---command codes 06h,07h,0Ah,0Bh,0Dh,0Eh,0Fh--- no further fields ---command code 10h--- 0Dh BYTE unused 0Eh DWORD transfer address 12h WORD (call) number of bytes to write (ret) actual number of bytes written ---command codes 11h,12h--- 0Dh BYTE reserved ---command code 14h--- no further fields.
Note: This is at least true for KKCFUNC.SYS' "device restore". KKCFUNC.SYS checks that INT 2Fh in the IVT still points to KKCFUNC's own INT 2Fh entry point. In this case it restores the original INT 2Fh vector, as recorded at device init, into the IVT..
