Port I/O
========
86Box handles the x86 port I/O space through **I/O handlers**. These handlers can be added with the ``io_sethandler`` function and removed with the ``io_removehandler`` function, both provided by ``86box/io.h``.
.. flat-table:: io_sethandler / io_removehandler
:header-rows: 1
:widths: 1 999
* - Parameter
- Description
* - base
- First I/O port (0x0000-0xffff) covered by this handler.
* - size
- Amount of I/O ports (1-65536) covered by this handler, starting at ``base``.
* - inb
- :rspan:`2` I/O read operation callback functions. Can be ``NULL``. Each callback takes the form of:
``TYPE callback(uint16_t addr, void *priv)``
* ``TYPE``: operation width: ``uint8_t`` for ``inb``, ``uint16_t`` for ``inw``, ``uint32_t`` for ``inl``;
* ``addr``: exact I/O port being read;
* ``priv``: opaque pointer (see ``priv`` below);
* Return value: 8- (``inb``), 16- (``inw``) or 32-bit (``inl``) value read from this port.
* - inw
* - inl
* - outb
- :rspan:`2` I/O write operation callback functions. Can be ``NULL``. Each callback takes the form of:
``void callback(uint16_t addr, TYPE val, void *priv)``
* ``addr``: exact I/O port being written;
* ``TYPE``: operation width: ``uint8_t`` for ``outb``, ``uint16_t`` for ``outw``, ``uint32_t`` for ``outl``;
* ``val``: 8- (``outb``), 16- (``outw``) or 32-bit (``outl``) value being written to this port;
* ``priv``: opaque pointer (see ``priv`` below).
* - outw
* - outl
* - priv
- Opaque pointer passed to this handler's read/write operation callbacks.
Usually a pointer to a device's :ref:`state structure <dev/api/device:State structure>`.
I/O handlers can be added or removed at any time, although ``io_removehandler`` must be called with the **exact same** parameters that ``io_sethandler`` was originally called with. For non-Plug and Play devices, you might want to add handlers in the ``init`` callback; for ISA Plug and Play devices, you'd add and/or remove handlers on the ``config_changed`` callback; for PCI devices, you'd do the same whenever the Command register or Base Address (BAR) registers are written to; and so on.
.. note:: There is no need to call ``io_removehandler`` on the device's ``close`` callback, since a hard reset already removes all I/O handlers.
Callback fallbacks
------------------
When an I/O handler receives an operation with a width for which it has no callback, the operation will automatically **fall back** to a lower width for which there is a callback. For example, if an ``inl`` operation falls on a handler which has no ``inl`` callback, 86Box will break the operation down to ``inw`` or ``inb`` callbacks on successive port numbers, then combine their return values:
* ``inl`` callback present::
uint32_t val = inl(port);
* ``inl`` callback not present, but ``inw`` callback present::
uint32_t val = inw(port);
val |= (inw(port + 2) << 16);
* ``inl`` and ``inw`` callbacks not present, but ``inb`` callback present::
uint32_t val = inb(port);
val |= (inb(port + 1) << 8);
val |= (inb(port + 2) << 16);
val |= (inb(port + 3) << 24);
* ``inl``, ``inw`` and ``inb`` callbacks not present::
uint32_t val = 0xffffffff; /* don't care */
The same rule applies to write callbacks:
* ``outl`` callback present::
uint32_t val = /* ... */;
outl(port, val);
* ``outl`` callback not present, but ``outw`` callback present::
uint32_t val = /* ... */;
outw(port, val & 0xffff);
outw(port + 2, (val >> 16) & 0xffff);
* ``outl`` and ``outw`` callbacks not present, but ``outb`` callback present::
uint32_t val = /* ... */;
outb(port, val & 0xff);
outb(port + 1, (val >> 8) & 0xff);
outb(port + 2, (val >> 16) & 0xff);
outb(port + 3, (val >> 24) & 0xff);
* ``outl``, ``outw`` and ``outb`` callbacks not present:
Don't care, no operation performed.
.. note:: Each broken-down operation triggers the I/O handlers for its respective port number, no matter which handlers are responsible for the starting port number. A handler will **never** receive callbacks for ports outside its ``base`` and ``size`` boundaries.
This feature's main use cases are devices which store registers that are 8-bit wide but may be accessed with 16- or 32-bit operations:
.. container:: toggle
.. container:: toggle-header
Code example: ``inb`` handler for reading 8-bit registers
.. code-block::
typedef struct {
uint8_t regs[256];
} foo_t;
static uint8_t
foo_io_inb(uint16_t addr, void *priv)
{
foo_t *dev = (foo_t *) priv;
return dev->regs[addr & 0xff]; /* register index = I/O port's least significant byte */
}
/* No foo_io_inw, so a 16-bit read will read two 8-bit registers in succession.
No foo_io_inl, so a 32-bit read will read four 8-bit registers in succession. */
Multiple I/O handlers
---------------------
Any given I/O port can have an **unlimited** amount of I/O handlers, such that:
* when a **read** operation occurs, all read callbacks will be called, and their return values will be logically **AND**\ ed together;
* when a **write** operation occurs, all write callbacks will be called with the same written value.
Read callbacks can effectively return "don't care" (without interfering with other handlers) by returning a value with all bits set: ``0xff`` with ``inb``, ``0xffff`` with ``inw`` or ``0xffffffff`` with ``inl``.
.. note:: The same callback fallback rules specified above also apply with multiple handlers. Handlers without valid callbacks for the operation's type and width are automatically skipped.
I/O traps
---------
A second type of I/O handler, **I/O traps** allow a device (usually System Management Mode on chipsets and legacy compatibility on PCI sound cards) to act upon a read/write operation to an I/O port operation without affecting its result.
.. container:: toggle
.. container:: toggle-header
Code example: I/O trap on ports ``0x220``-``0x22f``
.. code-block::
typedef struct {
void *trap_220;
} foo_t;
static void
foo_trap_220(int size, uint16_t addr, uint8_t write, uint8_t val, void *priv)
{
/* Get the device state structure. */
foo_t *dev = (foo_t *) priv;
/* Do whatever you want. */
pclog("Foo: Trapped I/O %s to port %04X, size %d\n",
write ? "write" : "read", addr, size);
if (write)
pclog("Foo: Written value: %02X\n", val);
}
static void *
foo_init(const device_t *info)
{
/* Allocate the device state structure. */
foo_t *dev = /* ... */
/* Add I/O trap. */
dev->trap_220 = io_trap_add(foo_trap_220, dev);
/* Map I/O trap to 16 ports starting at 0x220. */
io_trap_remap(dev->trap_220, 1, 0x220, 16);
return dev;
}
static void
foo_close(void *priv)
{
/* Get the device state structure. */
foo_t *dev = (foo_t *) priv;
/* Remove I/O trap before deallocating the device state structure. */
io_trap_remove(dev->trap_220);
free(dev);
}
const device_t foo4321_device = {
/* ... */
.init = foo_init,
.close = foo_close,
/* ... */
};
