How to read disk sector into memory using INT 13 service?
Ans:
INT 13 - DISK - READ SECTOR(S) INTO MEMORY :
AH = 02h
AL = number of sectors to read (must be nonzero)
CH = low eight bits of cylinder number
CL = sector number 1-63 (bits 0-5)
high two bits of cylinder (bits 6-7, hard disk only)
DH = head number
DL = drive number (bit 7 set for hard disk)
ES:BX -> data buffer
Return:
CF = error flag
AH = error code
AL = number of sectors transferred
Q#: 35 ( Marks: 5 )
The program given below is written in assembly language. Write a program in C to call this assembly routine.
[section .text]
global swap
swap: mov ecx,[esp+4] ; copy parameter p1 to ecx
mov edx,[esp+8] ; copy parameter p2 to edx
mov eax,[ecx] ; copy *p1 into eax
xchg eax,[edx] ; exchange eax with *p2
mov [ecx],eax ; copy eax into *p1
ret ; return from this function
Ans:
The above code will assemble in c through this command. Other aurwise error will occur.
Nasm-f win32 swap .asm
This command will generate swap.obj file.
The code for given program will be as follow.
#include <stdio.h>
Void swap(int* pl, int* p2);
Int main()
{
Int a=10,
Int b= 20;
Print f (“a=%d b=%d\n” , a ,b);
Swap (&a ,&b);
Print f (“a=%d b=%d\n” , a ,b);
System ( “pause”);
Return 0;
}
