2.12. WD_MultiTransfer()


	Chapter 2. WD_xxx PCI/PCMCIA/ISA Functions

Purpose

Executes multiple read/write instructions to I/O ports and/or memory addresses.

Prototype

DWORD WD_MultiTransfer(
    HANDLE hWD,
    WD_TRANSFER *pTransferArray,
    DWORD dwNumTransfers);

Parameters

Name	Type	Input/Output
hWD	HANDLE	Input
pTransferArray	WD_TRANSFER*
• cmdTrans	DWORD	Input
• dwPort	KPTR	Input
• dwBytes	DWORD	Input
• fAutoinc	DWORD	Input
• dwOptions	DWORD	Input
• Data	union
* Byte	BYTE	Input/Output
* Word	WORD	Input/Output
* Dword	UINT32	Input/Output
* Qword	UINT64	Input/Output
* pBuffer	PVOID	Input/Output
dwNumTransfers	DWORD	Input

Description

Name	Description
hWD	Handle 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.
• dwOptions	Must be set to 0
• Data	The transfer data — input for read transfers, output for write transfers:
* Byte	Used for 8-bit transfers
* Word	Used for 16-bit transfers
* Dword	Used for 32-bit transfers
* Qword	Used for 64-bit transfers
* pBuffer	Used 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

See WD_Transfer() [2.11] remarks.
This function is not supported in Visual Basic.

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;
