3.7 Cookie jar

The cookie jar was introduced with TOS 1.06 and represents a generalisation of the system variables. One is dealing here with a table of individual cookies that are defined as follows:

typedef struct
{
    BYTE cookie_id[4];   /* Identification code */
    LONG cookie_value;   /* Value of the cookie */
} COOKIE;

To be able to work with or use cookies, one first inspects the contents of the system variables _p_cookies (0x5a0L). If one finds a NULL-pointer there, it means that no cookie jar has been installed in memory as yet. When using the MiNT-libs of GCC, one should use the functions made available there!

Any other value is a pointer to a table of pairs of 32-bit values (the so-called cookie jar) which may be used for a targeted search of the jar for given cookies.

When choosing a cookie name it is imperative to pay attention to the following points:

• Identifiers starting with '_' are reserved for Atari
• The cookie-ID should consist of four ASCII characters
• It should be possible to determine from the cookie-ID which program created it

The end of the cookie jar is identified by a NULL-cookie (Hex: 0x00000000), whose value contains the maximum number of entries in the jar.

To place a cookie, one searches via _p_cookies for the NULL-cookie and checks whether there is still room for another entry. If that is the case, the new cookie is placed at the position of the NULL-cookie, which in turn is moved back by one position. Otherwise one has to allocate memory for a larger table, copy the old cookie jar there and adapt the system variable _p_cookies accordingly.

To delete a cookie, one first must search for it, and then copy all following cookies (including the NULL-cookie) by one position forward.

To prevent duplication of the cookie-IDs, Julian Reschke administers a list in which all officially notified IDs are entered.

Tip: Source texts for the most important functions for working with the cookie jar can be found in various mailboxes, and can also be found in the ST-Computer magazine (issues 12/1990, 01/1991).

This information can be used by hard disk drivers, for instance, to transfer data directly via DMA to this memory block. Other programs should ignore this cookie and allocate their memory cleanly with Mxalloc.

3.7.2.253 Cookie, MagX

MagiC operating system

The cookie is installed by the alternative operating system MagiC, and points to the following structure:

typedef struct
{
   int32_t   config_status;
   DOSVARS  *dosvars;
   AESVARS  *aesvars;
   void     *res1;
   void     *hddrv_functions;
   int32_t   status_bits;
} MAGX_COOKIE;

Note: The elements res1 and hddrv_functions are available only since MagiC 3, status_bits only since the version of 24.05.1995.

Warning: The version number of MagiC, which contains the presence of this extended cookie, can, stupidly, not be queried via AESVARS, as this pointer to the variables of the AES is still NULL at boot-time. Luckily one can access the pointer also via the TOS system-header (because this pointer is always valid); this can be performed via DOMagixAESVars.

3.7.2.561 Cookie, XSDD

Extended Serial Device Driver

Introduction

As is generally known, the ability of TOS to service the serial ports is very restricted:

• The operation of various control lines (e.g. DCD, DTR, RI etc.) is only possible with direct accesses to the hardware
• Only the Baud rates offered by Rsconf can be set, even if the hardware allows more
• The access to one port by several programs cannot be coordinated
• As BIOS has to transfers each character individually, the I/O performance is not very high

During the development of a serial driver for MiNT, which was to remedy these weaknesses, the idea arose to make the extended functio- nality available under pure TOS as well. This is the first suggestion how this could look. Essentially, the low-level routines of the MiNT driver are made accessible from the outside via a cookie. Conceivably it would be possible also to completely divorce the two levels and to sit the MiNT driver on top of a separate TOS driver.

The XSDD protocol

The XSDD protocol supports devices 6 up to inclusive managed via Bconmap (provided the underlying TOS makes them available) as well as the device 1 (AUX). Operations on AUX always refer to the Bconmap device active at the time XSDD is called. In future it is possible for technical reasons that AUX will only be supported if the underlying TOS has no Bconmap.

The driver installs a cookie "XSDD". The cookie points to the jump-in point of the XSDD driver. Immediately before the routine (that is at offset -4 before the address from the cookie) there is, for the sake of safety, once more the LONG constant "XSDD".

Call: The function that is to be performed is specified by an opcode (WORD). This opcode is the first argument for each call. If an invalid code is specified, then EINVFN is returned.

The passing of all parameters follows the GEMDOS convention, i.e. on the stack. The return value will lie in d0. Apart from d0 no registers are altered. Calling XSDD must be exclusively in supervisor mode.

At the time of writing the functions listed below are foreseen (the opcodes have still to be allocated). For the parameter types the following convention applies:

BYTE:  8-Bit  character
WORD:  16-Bit signed integer
UWORD: 16-Bit unsigned integer
LONG:  32-Bit nsigned integer

WORD XSVersion(void)

Returns the version number of the protocol implemented by the XSDD driver, major-version in the high byte, minor version in the low byte (example: 0x0102 corresponds to Version 1.2). This number is not meant to reflect the version of the driver program, but only that of the implemented protocol.

Return value::
Protokollversion.

WORD XSDriverInfo(BYTE *info, LONG *product, WORD *version)

This call returns an info-string, a product identifier, as well as the version of the relevant driver program. info here must point to a buffer at least 80 bytes long in which the NULL- terminated info-string will be entered (the string may contain the author and the name of the driver, for instance). In the LONG to which product points the product ID will be entered, and in the WORD to which version points, the driver version.

Return value:
0

WORD XSDevName(WORD device, BYTE *name)

Obtains the name of the port belonging to the BIOS device (e.g. "Modem1"). name must point to an array at least 9 bytes long, in which the NULL-terminated name will be entered.

Return value:
0 on success
EUNDEV - Invalid device

WORD XSReserve(WORD device)

Reserve device. This is an "advisory" locking, i.e. depends on every program inquiring about the lock and voluntarily forgoing any further accesses if the device has been allocated already. Every program has to perform this call before any kind of access to the device is made. If the device was still free, then it will be reserved after the call. If it was reserved already, an error-code will be returned; in that case there should be no further accesses to the device.

Return value:
0 - The device is now reserved
EACCDN - The device was reserved already
EUNDEV - Invalid device

WORD XSRelease(WORD device)

Release device again. This call may be made only if a successful XSReserve was perfomed (with return value 0).

If an XSCtlSig routine was initialized on the device, then it will be released automatically.

Return value:
0 on success
EACCDN - If the device was not reserved
EUNDEV - Invalid device

LONG XSCapMap(WORD device)

Inquires various attributes of the driver and device. If no error occurs, a bit-vector will be returned. The following bits are defined at present:

  #define XS_BREAK  0x01   /* Device can send Break */
  #define XS_RTSCTS 0x02   /* Device understands RTS/CTS handshaking */
  #define XS_TANDEM 0x04   /* Device understands XON/XOFF handshaking */
  #define XS_IOBAUD 0x08   /* Device understands various I and O Baud rates */

  #define XS_BIOSRW 0x8000 /* Driver uses BIOS for read/write */

All other bits are reserved and should be ignored for the time being.

Return value:
>=0 (LONG!) - Available attributes
EUNDEV - Invalid device

LONG XSIBaud(WORD device, LONG baudrate)

Set/inquire the input Baud rate (more exactly: bps) of the specified device. The Baud rate is given uncoded in plain text (so for instance 38400L corresponds to 38400 bps). If -1L is specified, the Baud rate is not altered (only inquired). If a Baud rate is requested that is not available on the device, then the next lower available rate will be set and returned.

Most devices do not support separate Baud rates for input and output. In that case an XSIBaud call changes the output Baud rate at the same time (this can be inquired for with XSCapMap).

Return value:
>0 - Set Baud rate
EUNDEV - Invalid device

Anmerkung: Durch die Rückgabe der nächst niedrigen verfügbaren Baudrate kann der Aufrufer alle für dieses Device verfügbaren Baudraten durch "Abklappern" von oben nach unten ermitteln.

LONG XSOBaud(WORD device, LONG baudrate)

Set/inquire the output Baud rate (more exactly: bps) of the specified device. Functioning is otherwise similar to XSIBaud.

Most devices do not support separate Baud rates for input and output. In that case an XSOBaud call changes the input Baud rate at the same time (this can be inquired for with XSCapMap).

Return value:
>0 - Set Baud rate
EUNDEV - Invalid device

WORD XSBreak(WORD device, WORD on)

Set/clear a BREAK on the device. If on in non-zero, BREAK will be set, else cleared. If the device does not understand BREAK, the call will be ignored.

Return value:
0 on success
EUNDEV - Invalid device

LONG XSSetFlags(WORD device, UWORD flags)

Set transmission parameters. Attempts to make settings that are not possible on the device (i.e. those reported by XSCapMap as not available) are ignored. flags contains the setting in the following coding (corresponds to those of TIOCGFLAGS-Fcntl of MiNT):

Mask: TF_STOPBITS 0x0003
Werte:
0x0000 Invalid
0x0001 1 stop-bit
0x0002 1.5 stop-bit
0x0003 2 stop-bit

Mask: TF_CHARBITS 0x000C
Werte:
0x0000 8 bits per character
0x0004 7 bits per character
0x0008 6 bits per character
0x000C 5 bits per character

Mask: TF_PARITY 0xc000
Werte:
0x0000 No parity
0x4000 Even parity
0x8000 Odd parity
0xc000 Invalid

Further bits:
T_TANDEM 0x1000 XON/XOFF Handshake
T_RTSCTS 0x2000 RTS/CTS Handshake

All remaining bits are reserved and should be 0.

Return value:
>=0 (LONG!) - The flags set before the call
ERANGE - Invalid parameter were found
EUNDEV - Invalid device

LONG XSGetFlags(WORD device)

Inquire transmission parameters.

Return value:
>=0 (LONG!) - Set parameters (coding see XSSetFlags).
EUNDEV - Invalid device

LONG XSCtlMap(WORD device)

Inquire control lines available on the device. If no error arises, a bit-vector is returned in which the relevant bit is 1 for available control lines, and 0 for those not available. The following bits are defined:

  #define TIOCM_LE  0x01        /* line enable */
  #define TIOCM_DTR 0x02        /* data terminal ready */
  #define TIOCM_RTS 0x04        /* ready to send */
  #define TIOCM_CTS 0x08        /* clear to send */
  #define TIOCM_CAR 0x10        /* carrier detect */
  #define TIOCM_RNG 0x20        /* ring */
  #define TIOCM_DSR 0x40        /* data set ready */

All other bits are reserved and should be ignored until further notice.

Return value:
>=0 (LONG!) - Available control lines
EUNDEV - Invalid device

Note: The values may still be changed in order to adapt them to the (hopefully soon determined) definitions of the corresponding MiNT Fcntl.

LONG XSGetCtl(WORD device)

Inquire status of the control lines (DCD, RI etc.). If no error arises, a bit-vector is returned (coding as in XSCtlMap). The bits are 1 if the corresponding line is active, else 0.

Return value:
>=0 (LONG!) - Status of the control lines
EUNDEV - Invalid device

WORD XSSetCtl(WORD device, UWORD ctl)

Set control lines. Coding again as in XSCtlMap. Some lines (e.g. CTS) are read-only and hence cannot be affected (that should be clear from the context). Attempts to affect these, and those lines that are not supported by the device (i.e. those reported by XSCapMap as not available) are ignored.

Return value:
0 bei Erfolg
EUNDEV - Ungültiges Device

WORD XSOnCtl(WORD device, UWORD on_mask)

Activate the control lines whose bit is set in on_mask, without affecting the others. Otherwise the same conditions apply as for XSSetCtl.

Return value:
0 on success
EUNDEV - Invalid device

WORD XSOffCtl(WORD device, UWORD off_mask)

Deactivate the control} lines whose bit is set in off_mask, without affecting the others. Otherwise the same conditions apply as for XSSetCtl.

Return value:
0 on success
EUNDEV - Invalid device

LONG XSInStat(WORD device)

Obtain the number of characters that are currently available on the device for reading. The returned value need not be exact. It only guarantees that the next read access can read at least that many bytes, but it could be more.

Return value:
>=0 - Number of available characters
EUNDEV - Invalid device

LONG XSOutStat(WORD device)

Obtain the number of characters that are currently available on the device for writing. The returned value need not be exact. It only guarantees that the next write access can output at least that many bytes, but it could be more.

Return value:
>=0 - Number of characters that can be output
EUNDEV - Invalid device

LONG XSRead(WORD device, LONG count, BYTE *buffer)

Read a maxmum of count characters from the memory block speci- fied in buffer. If that many characters are not available at the time, XSRead returns immediately (non-blocking).

Return value:
>=0 - Number of characters that were read
EUNDEV - Ungültiges Device
Weitere (negative) TOS-Fehlernummern bei I/O-fehlern

LONG XSWrite(WORD device, LONG count, BYTE *buffer)

Write count characters from the memory block specified in buffer to the device. If that many characters could not be written at the time, XSWrite returns immediatelly (non-blocking).

Return value:
>=0 - Number of characters that were written
EUNDEV - Invalid device
Further (negative) TOS error-messages at I/O-errors

WORD XSFlush(WORD device, WORD mode)

Discard characters remaining in the driver's buffer. mode speci- fies more exactly what is to be discarded:
0: Discard characters that have been received but not yet read out
1: Discard characters that have been written but not yet sent
2: Discard all characters still buffered

If the operation is not possible on the device, the call is ignored.

Return value:
0 on success
ERANGE - If mode is not 0, 1 or 2
EUNDEV - Invalid device

WORD XSInSig(WORD device, void (*func)(WORD device))

Directs the driver to start up the function specified by func as soon as a new character has arrived from the device. For this the routine is passed the device number on the stack. The speci- fied routine is most probably called from within an interrupt. Accordingly it may not alter any registers and should be as short as possible. The routine is called just once, thereafter XSInSig is deactivated again automatically. If an XSInSig was already active before the call, the new one will not be installed and EACCDN will be returned.

If a NULL-pointer is passed for func, a previously set XSInSig will be annulled.

XSInSig need not be available on every device; in that case EINVFN will be returned.

Return value:
0 - on success
EINVFN - Device does not support XSInSig
EACCDN - There is already an XSInSig active
EUNDEV - Invalid device

Note: This function is intended mainly for implementation in MiNT drivers and should not be used by application programs.

WORD XSOutSig(WORD device, void (*func)(WORD device))

Directs the driver to start up the function specified by func as soon as a new character can be output to the device. The functionality is otherwise similar to XSInSig.

If a NULL-pointer is passed for func, a previously set XSOutSig will be annulled.

XSOutSig need not be available on every device; in that case EINVFN will be returned.

Return value:
0 - on success
EINVFN - Device does not support XSOutSig
EACCDN - There is already an XSOutSig active
EUNDEV - Invalid device

Note: This function is intended mainly for implementation in MiNT drivers and should not be used by application programs.

LONG XSCtlSig(WORD device, UWORD ctl_mask, void (*func)(WORD device, UWORD ctl))

Directs the driver to start up the function specified by func as soon as the state of a control line specified in ctl_mask has altered (coding as stated in XSCtlMap). For this the routine is passed on the stack the device number and a bit-vector in which the bit of the triggered control line is set. The specified routine is most probably called from within an interrupt. Accordingly it may not alter any registers and should be as short as possible. The routine is called just once, thereafter XSCtlSig is deactivated again automatically.

If an XSCtlSig was already active before the call, the new one will not be installed and EACCDN will be returned.

If a NULL-pointer is passed for func, a previously set XSCtlSig will be annulled.

XSCtlSig need not be available on every device; in that case EINVFN will be returned. Equally it need not be available for all of the available control lines. If there are control lines specified in ctl_mask that are not supported by XSCtlSig, they will be ignored. Which lines are actually reacted to can be seen from the return value.

As soon as a device is released with XSRelease, any XCtlSig still installed on it will be deinstalled automatically.

Return value:
>0 (LONG!) - Mask with the control lines actually taken into account
EINVFN - Device does not support XSCtlSig
EACCDN - There is already an XSCtlSig active
EUNDEV - Invalid device

Note: This function can be used, for instance, to oversee effi- ciently the RI or DCD lines (one installs a routine in which the program sets a flag and then interrogates this periodically). WARNING: A program using this function may not forget on any account to annul the XSCtlSig before termination.
