DESCRIPTION
NameDescription
hWDHandle to WinDriver's kernel-mode driver as received from WD_Open [5.2]
pTransferArray Pointer to a beginning of an array of transfer information structures:
• cmdTrans A value indicating the type of transfer to perform – see definition of the WD_TRANSFER_CMD enumeration in windrvr.h.

In calls to WD_MultiTransfer the transfer command should be a read/write transfer command that conforms to the following format: <dir><p>_[S]<size>
Explanation:
<dir>: R for read, W for write
<p>: P for I/O, M for memory
<S>: signifies a string (block) transfer, as opposed to a single transfer
<size>: BYTE, WORD, DWORD or QWORD .
• dwPort The memory or I/O address to access.

For a memory transfer, use the kernel-mapping of the base address received from WD_CardRegister [2.8] in pCardReg->Card.Item[i]I.Mem.dwTransAddr (where 'i' is the index of the relevant memory item) + the desired offset from the beginning of the address range.

For an I/O transfer, use the base address received from WD_CardRegister [2.8] in pCardReg->Card.Item[i]I.IO.dwAddr (where 'i' is the index of the relevant I/O item) + the desired offset from the beginning of the address range.
• dwBytes Used in string transfers – number of bytes to transfer
• fAutoinc Used for string transfers.
If TRUE, I/O or memory address should be incremented for transfer.
If FALSE, all data is transferred to the same port/address.
• dwOptionsMust be set to 0
• Data The transfer data – input for read transfers, output for write transfers:
 * ByteUsed for 8-bit transfers
 * WordUsed for 16-bit transfers
 * DwordUsed for 32-bit transfers
 * QwordUsed for 64-bit transfers
 * pBufferUsed for string (block) transfers
dwNumTransfers The number of transfers to perform (the pTransferArray array should contain at least dwNumTransfers elements)
RETURN VALUE
Returns WD_STATUS_SUCCESS(0) on success, or an appropriate error code otherwise [A].
REMARKS
EXAMPLE
WD_TRANSFER Trans[4];
DWORD dwResult;
char *cData = "Message to send\n";

BZERO(Trans);
Trans[0].cmdTrans = WP_WORD;  /* Write Port WORD */
Trans[0].dwPort = 0x1e0;
Trans[0].Data.Word = 0x1023;

Trans[1].cmdTrans = WP_WORD;
Trans[1].dwPort = 0x1e0;
Trans[1].Data.Word = 0x1022;

Trans[2].cmdTrans = WP_SBYTE; /* Write Port String BYTE */
Trans[2].dwPort = 0x1f0;
Trans[2].dwBytes = strlen(cdata);
Trans[2].fAutoinc = FALSE;
Trans[2].dwOptions = 0;
Trans[2].Data.pBuffer = cData;

Trans[3].cmdTrans = RP_DWORD; /* Read Port Dword */
Trans[3].dwPort = 0x1e4;

WD_MultiTransfer(hWD, &Trans, 4);
dwResult = Trans[3].Data.Dword;
