WHDLoad/--Overview--
The calling conventions for all functions are similar to the OS-Library
concept. Parameters are provided in registers (except for 'resload_Abort'),
return codes come in D0 (on some functions additionally in D1). After a
function call the registers D0-D1/A0-A1 are destroyed (D0, D1 may contain a
return code). These are so called scratch registers. All other registers are
preserved. Some resload functions do preserve all registers (e.g.
resload_FlushCache), see NOTE of the respective function to find out. The
condition codes on returning from a function are set matching D0.L.
The base of the JMP tower in WHDLoad is similar to a Library-Base. In
difference to the OS the base must not be loaded into A6 on calling a function,
but it is recommended to call all functions relative to a address register
like:
move.l (_resload,pc),a5
jsr (resload_Decrunch,a5)
During the execution of resload functions interrupts are normally allowed. For
some internal operations they will be disabled for a short time. If the option
NoResInt/S is used the interrupts are disabled the whole time during executing
a resload function.
The resload functions will not use the registers A5 and A6 while interrupts are
allowed. Therefore interrupts of the installed program may assume that these
both registers contain previously set values. This is not true for all other
registers. If the interrupts assume constants in other registers (e.g. A4)
either the interrupt code must be patched accordingly or the interrupts must be
disabled before calling resload functions.
If option NoResInt/S is used all registers except D0-D1/A0-A1 remain unchanged
as long as interrupts are allowed. But remember that option NoResInt/S is only
for testing purposes and not to be used in public released installs.
The resload base is over given in A0 on calling the Slave first via
ws_GameLoader (see chapter WHDLoad.Slave/--Overview--).
All file names used with resload functions must be relative and must not access
any higher-level directories. That means that file names must not start or end
with a slash '/', must not contain multiple slashes '//' and must not contain a
colon ':'. These restrictions are enforced starting WHDLoad v16.9. Earlier
versions of WHDLoad will accept all names at the loss of being able to preload
them.
some terms used in this document:
Slave file which contains the install specific interface code
(see section WHDLoad.Slave/--Overview--)
BaseMem the memory which is used by the installed program, this memory
is always Chip-memory and starts at address $0, BaseMem is at
the same time the size and the end address of the used
Chip-memory, BaseMem is specified in the Slave-structure in
the field 'ws_BaseMemSize'
ExpMem is the expansion memory, an extra memory area which can
optionally requested by the Slave-structure, it may be Chip- or
Fast-memory dependently on what is available,
ExpMem is supported starting WHDLoad version 8

WHDLoad/resload_Abort
NAME
resload_Abort -- quit and return to operating system
SYNOPSIS
resload_Abort( success, primary, secondary)
(a7) (4,a7) (8,a7)
ULONG ULONG ULONG
FUNCTION
This aborts and terminates the installed program and causes WHDLoad to
return to the operating system.
INPUTS
the 'success' parameter must be always provided, the 'primary' and
'secondary' parameter are only required by some TDREASON_#?
success - the reason for aborting
one of TDREASON_#? defined in the include file 'whdload.i',
depending on this value WHDLoad continues differently
TDREASON_OK
a normal exit will be performed
TDREASON_DEBUG
WHDLoad will create dump files (.whdl_dump, .whdl_expmem,
.whdl_memory, .whdl_register) and exits
TDREASON_#? (except the above)
WHDLoad will show a requester explaining the reason of
aborting and requests the user to choose one of the options
'Quit', 'Restart' and 'Make CoreDump'
primary - the primary return code further describes the reason of
aborting
TDREASON_DELETEFILE, TDREASON_DISKLOAD, TDREASON_DISKLOADDEV,
TDREASON_DOSLIST, TDREASON_DOSREAD, TDREASON_DOSWRITE
DOS or Trackdisk error code
TDREASON_DEBUG
program counter (so it can by written to the dump files)
TDREASON_OSEMUFAIL
name of the failed subsystem
TDREASON_FAILMSG
custom message to display
TDREASON_MUSTNTSC, TDREASON_MUSTPAL, TDREASON_MUSTREG,
TDREASON_OK, TDREASON_REQ68020, TDREASON_REQAGA,
TDREASON_WRONGVER
unused (can be omitted)
secondary - the secondary return code further describes the reason of
aborting
TDREASON_DELETEFILE, TDREASON_DOSREAD, TDREASON_DOSWRITE
name of file failed
TDREASON_DISKLOAD
disk number
TDREASON_DOSLIST
name of directory scanned
TDREASON_DEBUG
status register (so it can by written to the dump files)
TDREASON_OSEMUFAIL
error number, depending on the primary return code
TDREASON_DISKLOADDEV, TDREASON_FAILMSG, TDREASON_MUSTNTSC,
TDREASON_MUSTPAL, TDREASON_MUSTREG, TDREASON_OK,
TDREASON_REQ68020, TDREASON_REQAGA, TDREASON_WRONGVER
unused (can be omitted)
RESULT
nothing, WHDLoad will never return from this call
EXAMPLE
to simply quit:
...
; primary and secondary are not needed with TDREASON_OK
pea TDREASON_OK
move.l (_resload,pc),a0
jmp (resload_Abort,a0)
to quit because reading of a file has failed:
...
move.l a0,-(a7) ;a0 = filename
move.l d0,-(a7) ;d0 = DOS error code
move.l #TDREASON_DOSREAD,-(a7)
move.l (_resload,pc),-(a7)
addq.l #resload_Abort,(a7)
rts
BUGS
NOTE
This routine is the only one which must be called via JMP and not JSR
because the parameters are located on the stack (that has the
advantage that when aborting with TDREASON_DEBUG all registers can be
preserved and written to the dump files by WHDLoad for later
diagnostics)

the following items are currently supported:
WHDLTAG_ATTNFLAGS_GET - gets the AttnFlags describing the current
CPU, FPU and MMU, the returned value is
similar to execbase.AttnFlags but not equal
because WHDLoad uses some additional bits,
the Slave is allowed to only use the defines
from the NDK include file 'exec/execbase.i'
for testing
WHDLTAG_BPLCON0_GET - gets the system value of custom.bplcon0 as
stored in graphics.library base
gb_system_bplcon0, it can be used to reuse

WHDLTAG_DBGADR_SET - sets a base address for debugging, this is
only used for error messages generated by
WHDLoad, on an error it will additionally
output the offset of the faulted address to
this base, useful if you have program code
somewhere (e.g. in ExpMem) and like to know
at which offset in the program it has happen
(without calculating it manually)
requires WHDLoad v14.5
WHDLTAG_DBGSEG_SET - nearly the same as WHDLTAG_DBGADR_SET, but
instead of a memory address a BCPL pointer to

WHDLoad will display the offset in the
relocated executable like you would see it in
a dis/reassembler
requires WHDLoad v15.0
WHDLTAG_ECLOCKFREQ_GET - gets the EClockFrequency, which is the
frequency the custom chips operate on, the
value is taken from the execbase (see NDK

called resload function
WHDLTAG_KEYTRANS_GET - get a pointer to a table to perform a 'rawkey
to ascii' conversion, the table has a length
of 512 bytes and contains 4 sub tables, first
128 bytes representing the keys pressed
without any modifier, then 128 bytes with
Shift, then 128 bytes with Alt and at last
128 bytes with Shift and Alt

WHDLoad/WHDLTAG_CBAF_SET
NAME
WHDLTAG_CBAF_SET -- set Call Back Access Fault
SYNOPSIS
tag to be used with resload_Control to set call back on access fault
cont, adr, data = CBAF(mode, size, pc, adr, data/regs)
D0 A1 A2 D0 D1 A0 A1 A2
LONG APTR APTR LONG LONG APTR APTR APTR
FUNCTION
Using this tag a function can be set which gets executed when an
access fault exception occurs which is not handled by WHDLoad itself.
It may be used to locate specific accesses in conjunction with
resload_Protect and to walk around invalid accesses during the
development process.
on the 68030 all access faults can be caught except:
- instruction stream faults
- faults caused by WHDLoad's blitwait and blitsize checks
on the 68040/60 only these access faults can be caught:
- faults caused by resload_Protect
The routine being set must not change any registers except the ones
holding a return value. The routine must return via RTS. On entering
the routine all interrupts are disabled (sr=$27xx).
INPUTS
The tag item data field contains a pointer to the function which is
called by WHDLoad with the following parameters:
mode - transfer mode of the faulted access
0 - read
1 - modify (only 68060)
2 - write
size - operand size of the attempted access
1 - Byte
2 - Word
4 - Long
pc - program counter of the instruction which has faulted
(warning: on the write faults this often points to the
instruction after the one which has faulted (on the 68040 it
may also point two instructions ahead), read the appropriate
microprocessor user manual for further information)
adr - the address which has been attempted to access
data - on the 68030/68040 valid only on write faults: the given memory
address contains the data which has been tried to write
on the 68060 on read/write faults: contains a pointer to memory
where the saved registers D0-A6 are stored
RESULT
The function has to return the following values:
cont - how to continue
0 - terminate, WHDLoad will show a requester notifying the
access fault
1 - proceed, the faulted access will be emulated by the
handler inside WHDLoad
adr - only on 68030: in case of cont=proceed the address which will be
accessed
data - only on 68030/68040: in case of cont=proceed and mode=write a
pointer to the data which will be written
EXAMPLE
If you want to get informed at which point the installed program
writes the value 42 to the address $BABE the following code can be
used. It allows any write <> 42 to $BABE but will fault if 42 is
written (works on 68030/40 only):
...
clr.l -(a7) ;TAG_DONE
pea (_af,pc) ;function
move.l #WHDLTAG_CBAF_SET,-(a7) ;tag

If want you to redirect an access from $24 to the address $300, use the
following code (works on 68030 only):
...
clr.l -(a7) ;TAG_DONE
pea (_af,pc) ;function
move.l #WHDLTAG_CBAF_SET,-(a7) ;tag
move.l a7,a0
move.l (_resload,pc),a2

bne .term
lea ($300),a1
moveq #1,d0 ;proceed
rts
.term moveq #0,d0 ;terminate
rts
BUGS
fully supported is only the 68030, limited support for 68040/60
NOTE
requires ws_Version >= 9

WHDLoad/WHDLTAG_CBSWITCH_SET
NAME
WHDLTAG_CBSWITCH_SET -- set Call Back on switch mode
SYNOPSIS
tag to be used with resload_Control to set call back on Switch Mode
CBSWITCH()
FUNCTION
Using this tag a routine can be set which will executed each time
WHDLoad switches from the operating system to the installed program.
Such a routine is sometimes necessary because during the switch
between the installed program and the operating system some hardware
registers are modified by the operating system.
Known registers getting modified are cop2lc, bltafwm and bltalwm (maybe
there are more of them).
The routine must not change any registers except D0-D1, must not use
any stack and has to return via 'jmp (a0)'. At execution time of the
routine all interrupts and DMAs are disabled and the memory setup of
the installed program is active.
INPUTS
The tag item data field contains a pointer to the routine which
should be called by WHDLoad during a Switch Mode. A value equal 0
disables the execution of a routine.
EXAMPLE
...
clr.l -(a7) ;TAG_DONE
pea (_cbswitch,pc) ;function

WHDLoad/WHDLTAG_CUST
NAME
WHDLTAG_CUST_DISABLE - forbid all accesses
WHDLTAG_CUST_READ - allow reads
WHDLTAG_CUST_STROBE - allow reads and writes
WHDLTAG_CUST_WRITE - allow writes
SYNOPSIS
tag to be used with resload_Control
the tag data is the address of the custom register to be modified
FUNCTION
Using this tag the state of the specified custom register can be
modified regarding the readability and/or writability in WHDLoad.
WHDLoad knows about what custom registers can be read/written on the
existing chipsets OCS, ECS and AGA. These abilities are enforced when
using one of the options SnoopOCS/S, SnoopECS/S or SnoopAGA/S.
Sometimes it may be useful to allow read/writes to other registers then
the default to be able to use the Snoop#?/S feature without having to
fix all bad accesses present in an alien program.
Sometimes it may be useful to forbid access to valid custom registers
to detect specific operations in a program.
Using this function it is not possible to change the behavior of byte
write operations because such accesses are handled by WHDLoad in a
special way.
INPUTS
The tag item data field contains the custom register address which
should be modified. The address must be even and between 0 and $1fe.
EXAMPLE
Allow write access to the dummy register 'noop':
...
clr.l -(a7) ;TAG_DONE
pea $1fe ;noop
move.l #WHDLTAG_CUST_WRITE,-(a7)
move.l a7,a0
move.l (_resload,pc),a2
jsr (resload_Control,a2)
lea (12,a7),a7 ;restore sp
...
Detect any writes to the vposw, vhposw and copjmp registers:
...
lea (_tags,pc),a0
move.l (_resload,pc),a2
jsr (resload_Control,a2)
...
_tags dc.l WHDLTAG_CUST_DISABLE,vhposw
dc.l WHDLTAG_CUST_DISABLE,vposw
dc.l WHDLTAG_CUST_DISABLE,copjmp1
dc.l WHDLTAG_CUST_DISABLE,copjmp2
dc.l 0
BUGS
some custom registers are handled in a special way by WHDLoad, these
registers may remain unaffected by this facility, these registers are:
dmacon, cop1lc.l, cop2lc.l, aud*pt.l (if ChkAudPt is used),
bplpt*.l, bplcon1.l, bplcon2, all blitter registers (if
ChkBltSize/Wait is used), bplcon0 (if ChkColBst is used),
copcon and vhposw.l (if ChkCopCon is used)
changing custom registers which are also read/written by WHDLoad
itself may cause faults by WHDLoad or deadlocks
setting existing custom registers to disabled will also cause these
registers getting no longer displayed in the register dump file
NOTE
supported starting WHDLoad 18.0
should not be used in public releases, use it during development
process only

WHDLoad/WHDLTAG_IOERR_GET
NAME
WHDLTAG_IOERR_GET -- get IO Error code
SYNOPSIS
tag to be used with resload_Control to get the last DOS error code
FUNCTION
This tag can be used to get the DOS error code of the last called
resload function. All resload functions except resload_Control will
set/reset this error code.
Two resload functions are special in that way:
resload_GetFileSize
If a file with the specified name cannot be opened via
dos.Open, the error code will be set to the value returned
from dos.IoErr. So the error code may contain values like
ERROR_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND, ERROR_OBJECT_WRONG_TYPE,
ERROR_READ_PROTECTED or similar (see NDK include file
dos/dos.i). The error code can be used to distinguish between
a file with the size of 0 and a nonexistent file.
resload_ListFiles
If the specified buffer to fill is not large enough to hold
all file names from the scanned directory, the error code will
be set to ERROR_NO_FREE_STORE.
RESULT
The tag item data field contains the last DOS error code.

WHDLoad/resload_Decrunch
NAME
resload_Decrunch -- uncompress data in memory
SYNOPSIS
size = resload_Decrunch(source, destination)
D0 A0 A1
ULONG APTR APTR
FUNCTION
This unpacks compressed data in memory. Known compressed data formats
are RNC1, RNC2, IMP!, ATN!, TPWM and Cr[Mm][!2].
If the data source doesn't point to a known compressed format size=0
will be returned. Else the data will be unpacked to the destination
and the size of the decompressed data is returned.
Source and destination can be equal. In that case the packed data will
be overwritten. Also in this case some memory before (RNC1old,Cr*) or
after (RNC1/2,TPWM) the decompressed data may be temporarly
overwritten and at the end restored!
RNC1: Rob Northen compressor - emphasis on packed size
Supported is the old and the new format. Both formats are using
the same id but different file formats and compression
algorithms. The function uses some heuristic checks to
determine the correct format. The decompressor for the new
common format is highly optimized and contains separate code
for the 68000/10 and for 68020+. On the 68060 it's faster than
the Imploder decompressor.
RNC2: Rob Northen compressor - emphasis on unpacking speed
It's the fastest supported decompressor.
IMP!: Imploder (FImp)
The packed data must not overlap the destination. The
destination must be either equal to the source or completely
outside the source data. In difference to the original explode
routine resload_Decrunch does not destroy the source data (if
source is unequal to the destination).
ATN!: identical to IMP! only id is different
TPWM: Turbo Packer Wolfgang Mayerle
Supported starting WHDLoad v11. Because the file header does
not contain the length of the packed data there is no
integrity check performed.
Cr[Mm][!2]: Crunch-Mania by Thomas Schwarz
Supported starting WHDLoad v17. The packed source data must be
located on a word aligned address for 68000/10 compatibility!
All decompression routines have been modified to not modify the
registers A5 and A6 and to use nearly no stack space.
All decompression routines are performing a check if the decompression
was successful. On a failure the installed program will be terminated
and WHDLoad will display a message telling this.
INPUTS
source - address of source in memory
destination - address of destination in memory (can be equal to source)
RESULT
size - the size of the uncompressed data or 0 if is not compressed
with a known format
NOTE
the routine performs automatically a resload_FlushCache before
returning

NAME
resload_Delay -- wait some time or for a user action
SYNOPSIS
resload_Delay(time)
D0
ULONG
FUNCTION
Waits the specified time or until any button/key is pressed. All
possible buttons (LMB, MMB, RMB) of both controllers (port 0/1) and the
keyboard is checked. After the time runs out or something has been
pressed the function waits until the pressed controller button has been
released. But it does not wait for a keyboard key up.
The wait routine is based on the raster beam. But checks the current
display and therefore waits the same time on PAL and NTSC displays.
INPUTS
time - time to wait in 1/10 seconds
RESULT
nothing, all registers are preserved
EXAMPLE
...
moveq #30,d0 ;3 seconds
move.l (_resload,pc),a2
jsr (resload_Delay,a2)

WHDLoad/resload_DeleteFile
NAME
resload_DeleteFile -- delete a file
SYNOPSIS
success,errorcode = resload_DeleteFile(name)
D0 D1 A0
BOOL ULONG CPTR
FUNCTION
This function deletes the file with the specified name.
If there are multiple data directories used the file to delete
must be located in the first data directory. Otherwise deleting
will fail with a DOS error code ERROR_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND.
If option SavePath/K is used and the save path is not yet created
or the file doesn't exist in the save path the function will
return with success without deleting a file.
If WHDLoad has been started from a read-only filesystem (not if
SavePath/K is used) the function will return with success without
deleting a file.
INPUTS
name - name of the file to delete
RESULT
success - TRUE on success
errorcode - 0 on success
otherwise a DOS error code from dos.IoErr()
if WHDLF_NoError is set, the function only returns on success
EXAMPLE
...
lea (_name,pc),a0
move.l (_resload,pc),a2
jsr (resload_DeleteFile,a2)
...
_name dc.b "C/WHDLoad",0
NOTE
requires ws_Version >= 8
upto WHDLoad version 18.2 it was possible to delete also directories
using this function, now it will always fail with DOS error code
ERROR_DIRECTORY_NOT_EMPTY in this case

WHDLoad/resload_Delta
NAME
resload_Delta -- apply WDelta file
SYNOPSIS
resload_Delta(src, dest, delta)
A0 A1 A2
APTR APTR APTR
FUNCTION
Applies the differences provided via the delta data onto the source
data and creates the destination data.
WDelta is a tool to calculate a binary differences file from two data
files (like scompare/spatch). It can be found on aminet
(http://main.aminet.net/util/cli/WDelta.lha).
This function can be used to support different versions of data or
program files by converting them into one single version.
INPUTS
src - source data
dest - destination memory
delta - wdelta data
EXAMPLE
...
lea ($10000),a0 ;source
lea ($400),a1 ;destination
lea ($40000),a2 ;wdelta
move.l (_resload,pc),a3
jsr (resload_Delta,a3)
...
NOTE
The source, the delta and the destination data will be CRC checked.
If an error occurs WHDLoad will quit with an appropriate requester.

SYNOPSIS
success,errorcode = resload_DiskLoad(offset,size,diskno,dest)
D0 D1 D0 D1 D2 A0
BOOL ULONG ULONG ULONG UBYTE APTR
FUNCTION
Loads a part from a disk image as specified by the parameters.
The name of the disk images is expected as 'disk.' followed by the
number of the disk (e.g. 'Disk.1').
The size of the disk image is variable. An attempt to read data
outside of the disk image will result in a DOS error ERROR_SEEK_ERROR.
INPUTS
offset - offset in the disk image (relative to the beginning)
size - amount of bytes to read
diskno - disk number
dest - destination address
RESULT
success - TRUE on success
errorcode - 0 on success
otherwise a DOS error code from dos.IoErr()
if WHDLF_NoError is set, the function only returns on success
EXAMPLE
...
move.l #880*512,d0 ;from block 880
move.l #2*512,d1 ;2 blocks
moveq #1,d2 ;disk 1
lea $80000,a0 ;destination
move.l (_resload,pc),a2
jsr (resload_DiskLoad,a2)
...
NOTE
The routine performs automatically a resload_FlushCache before
returning.
Starting WHDLoad version 17.1 there is a new functionality: if bit #31
of the diskno is set and the options FileLog/S and Expert/S are enabled
each loaded file part is saved to the first data directory using the
generated file name "D<disk number> <start offset on disk>-<end offset
on disk> @<destination address>". Starting WHDLoad version 18.1 the
destination address if located in ExpMem will be prepended with a "E "
and the offset in ExpMem is used.

BOOL ULONG ULONG ULONG UBYTE STRUCT
FUNCTION
Loads a given amount of data from a floppy device.
INPUTS
offset - offset on the disk (must be a multiple of 512 bytes)
size - amount of bytes to read (must be a multiple of 512 bytes)
dest - destination address (must be aligned to 512 bytes)
tags - pointer to a taglist, starting WHDLoad version 16.0
there is one supported tag WHDLTAG_TDUNIT which
specifies the trackdisk.device unit to read from, default
is unit 0 (DF0:)
RESULT
success - TRUE on success
errorcode - 0 on success
otherwise a Trackdisk error code
if WHDLF_NoError is set, the function only returns on success
EXAMPLE
...

WHDLoad/resload_Examine
NAME
resload_Examine -- get information about a file or directory
SYNOPSIS

D0 D1 A0 A1
BOOL ULONG CPTR APTR
FUNCTION
Fills the supplied FileInfoBlock with information about the
specified file or directory. See NDK include file dos/dos.i for the
structure of the FileInfoBlock.
INPUTS
name - name of the object to get info about
fib - memory buffer of 260 bytes for the infos
RESULT
success - is true (-1) on success and false (0) on failure
errorcode - contains DOS error code (e.g. ERROR_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND)
EXAMPLE
...

move.l a7,a1
move.l (_resload,pc),a2
jsr (resload_Examine,a2)
...
add.l #fib_SIZEOF,a7
...
BUGS
Relative path names (starting/ending with '/' or containing '//') are
not supported. The name must also not contain a ':'.
The fib_Size will be incorrect if the file is more than two times
compressed using XPK or compressed using XPK and afterwards encrypted
using XPK.
NOTE
This function requires that the flag WHDLF_Examine is set in the Slave
structure which tells WHDLoad to collect the information returned by
this function before running the Slave. Starting with WHDLoad 18.6
calling this function without WHDLF_Examine set will terminate WHDLoad
with an appropriate error message.
The FileInfoBlock is not required to start at a long aligned address
as it is the case with dos.Examine.

NAME
resload_FlushCache -- flush and clear the CPU caches
SYNOPSIS
resload_FlushCache()
FUNCTION
clears all CPU caches
NOTE
In difference to most other resload_#? functions this routine is
granted to preserve all registers.
It's safe to call this routine from User and Supervisor mode and
independent of the actual CPU type (also on 68000/010).
It uses the CACR on 68020/30 and a 'cpusha bc' on 68040/60 to flush
the caches.

FUNCTION
Get the string which has been specified via the Custom/S option.
The buffer is filled as far as possible. If buffer was not large
enough false will be returned.
INPUTS
buflen - size of buffer
reserved - currently not used, must be set to 0

ULONG CPTR
FUNCTION
Gets the size of a file (checks if a file exists).
To distinguish between a file with a size of 0 and a nonexistent
file the tag WHDLTAG_IOERR_GET must be used in conjunction with
resload_Control afterwards.
INPUTS
name - name of the file to get the size of
RESULT
size - the size of the file or 0 if does not exist
EXAMPLE
...
lea (_filename,pc),a0

NOTE
This routine returns the file size obtained from the filesystem. If the
file is compressed and is loaded later via resload_LoadFileDecrunch the
loaded file size will differ!
If WHDLF_Examine is set in the Slave and the file was not preloaded and
the file is more than two times compressed using XPK or compressed
using XPK and afterwards encrypted using XPK the returned size will be
incorrect.

FUNCTION
Gets the uncompressed size of a packed file (checks if a file exists).
The routine knows about the same decrunchers as resload_Decrunch.
To distinguish between a file with a size of 0 and a nonexistent
file the tag WHDLTAG_IOERR_GET must be used in conjunction with

NAME
resload_ListFiles -- list file names in a directory
SYNOPSIS
amount,errorcode = resload_ListFiles(buffersize, name, buffer)
D0 D1 D0 A0 A1
ULONG ULONG ULONG CPTR APTR
FUNCTION
Writes the names of all files in the specified directory to the
buffer. The file names are separated with a 0 character.
Only files are listed, directories are skipped.
If the buffer to fill is not large enough to hold all names the
routine fills it as far as possible. The errorcode or the tag
WHDLTAG_IOERR_GET in conjunction with resload_Control can be used
afterwards to check if all file names did fit into the buffer.
If multiple data directories are used, only the first data directory
will be scanned.
If the first data directory is a VFS file the function does return
entries only if all files were preloaded. Direct list files from a VFS
is not implemented.
INPUTS
buffersize - the size of the buffer to fill
name - the name of the directory to scan
buffer - pointer to the buffer to fill (up to WHDLoad v16.8 the
buffer must be located inside the Slave, from WHDLoad
v16.9 on it can also be located in ExpMem)
RESULT
amount - amount of listed files in the buffer
errorcode - 0 on success
otherwise a DOS error code from dos.IoErr()
if WHDLF_NoError is set, the function only returns on success
EXAMPLE
...
move.l #_bufend-_buf,d0

...
_buf ds.b 1000
_bufend
_savepath dc.b "save",0
NOTE
Before WHDLoad release 18.7 a call to this resload function always
caused a switch to the operating system because the information to
provide is not cached. To avoid this switch resload_Examine and
resload_ExNext could be used instead (but will require some additional
memory for the Directory PreLoad).
Starting WHDLoad release 18.7 the file cache created by the option
Preload will be used but only if all files could be preloaded.
In releases 18.7 and 18.8 reading from the file cache was unable to
handle the install root directory (a0="") correctly and returned
nothing with this argument. Fixed in release 18.9.

D0 D1 A0 A1
ULONG ULONG CPTR APTR
FUNCTION
Loads the specified file into memory and unpack it if compressed using
one of the supported formats. Supported are the same formats as with
resload_Decrunch.
Using this routine instead of resload_LoadFile allows it easily to add
support for compressed data files to an installed program. Because of
the transparent decompression the installed program will not notify if
the loaded files were compressed on disk or not. The only thing which
must be considered is that files which are written using
resload_SaveFileOffset or loaded via resload_LoadFileOffset must not
be compressed.
INPUTS
name - name of the file to load
address - memory address to load the file on
RESULT
length - the size of the loaded file
if an error occurs 0 is returned
errorcode - 0 on success
otherwise a DOS error code from dos.IoErr()

BOOL ULONG ULONG ULONG CPTR APTR
FUNCTION
Loads a part of a file into memory. The part of the file is specified
by an offset in the file and a byte count to read. The routine is
nearly identical to resload_DiskLoad but instead of specifying the
number of the disk to read from a filename is used to select the file.
INPUTS
size - amount of bytes to read
offset - offset in the file
name - name of file
address - memory address to load the data on
RESULT
success - TRUE on success
errorcode - 0 on success

CPTR va_list
FUNCTION
This function puts a formatted message into the WHDLoad log file
'.whdl_log' which is also used by the FileLog/K/N facility.
The format string supports printf/exec.RawDoFmt like formatting
options. See resload_VSNPrintF for available formatting options.
To get something into the log file the WHDLoad option FileLog/K/N must
be enabled. To avoid switches to the operating system because of
overflows of the internal log buffer it is recommended to specify a
large LogBuffer/K/N in the global WHDLoad configuration file.
Arguments for the formatted log message are provided on the stack and
must be freed yourself after returning from this function.
If LogBuffer/K/N is not large enough for the single message to log
WHDLoad will abort with an 'illegal arguments' reason.
INPUTS
format - format string containing '%' commands
data stream - a stream of data interpreted according the parameters in
the format string
RESULT
nothing, all registers are preserved

WHDLoad/resload_Patch
NAME
resload_Patch -- apply patch list
SYNOPSIS
resload_Patch(patchlist, destination)
A0 A1
APTR APTR
FUNCTION
Modifies memory using commands from the specified patch list.
To make an installed program work under WHDLoad it must be patched.
That means the program must be modified so that it will load data via
WHDLoad instead of using its own loader routines. Often also various
other things must be changed to make it working.
The modifying of the installed program can be done using this routine.
A patch list will be build using macros from the include file
'whdload.i'. Each entry in the patch list contains a command to
perform, an address to apply the command on and optional extra data.
resload_Patch is especially useful if the memory to modify is located
in ExpMem and therefore the destination address in only known at
runtime and not at creation time of the Slave.
INPUTS
patchlist - list of commands describing the patches to apply
destination - address of memory region to patch
The following commands are supported in a patch list:
Commands to organize the patch lists:
PL_START starts a patch list, this will create a label which is
later used to calculate offsets in the slave (the
label is local, multiple patch lists must be separated
by a global label to avoid name collisions)
PL_END terminates a patch list
PL_NEXT lbl continues with another patch list at the address
where lbl points to in the slave, terminates current
list
PL_IFBW starts a conditional block which is executed only if
option ButtonWait/S has been specified
PL_IFC? starts a conditional block which is executed only if
option Custom?/N has been specified, ? can be 1..5
PL_IFC?X bit starts a conditional block which is executed only if
the specified bit is set in the option Custom?/N,
? can be 1..5, bit must be 0..31
PL_ELSE start a block which is executed alternatively to the
previous if condition block
PL_ENDIF closes the previous IF/ELSE block
IF condition blocks can be nested 31 times.
Commands which modify the patch destination area:
PL_A off1,off2 writes the address of destination+offset2 to
destination+offset1 (address)
PL_AB off,byte adds the byte at destination+offset
PL_AL off,long adds the long at destination+offset
PL_AW off,word adds the word at destination+offset
PL_B off,byte writes the given byte to destination+offset
PL_C off,len clears the memory at destination+offset in the given
length, max 65536 bytes
PL_CB off clears the byte at destination+offset
PL_CL off clears the long at destination+offset
PL_CW off clears the word at destination+offset
PL_DATA off,len,... writes the data following the command with the
given length to destination+offset, next command must
be word aligned, see example below
PL_I off writes the opcode for the ILLEGAL instruction ($4afc)
to destination+offset
PL_L off,long writes the given long to destination+offset
PL_NOP off,len fills the memory at destination+offset with NOP
($4e71) instructions in the given length
PL_NOPS off,cnt fills the memory at destination+offset with the
given count of NOP instructions ($4e71)
PL_ORB off,byte ors the byte at destination+offset
PL_ORL off,long ors the long at destination+offset
PL_ORW off,word ors the word at destination+offset
PL_P off,lbl writes the opcode for the JMP instruction ($4ef9) and
the address where lbl points to in the slave to
destination+offset (patch)
PL_PA off,lbl writes the address where lbl points to in the slave
to destination+offset (patch address)
PL_PS off,lbl writes the opcode for the JSR instruction ($4eb9) and
the address where lbl points to in the slave to
destination+offset (patch sub)
PL_PSS off,lbl,len writes the opcode for the JSR instruction ($4eb9)
and the address where lbl points to in the slave to
destination+offset followed by NOP instructions
($4e71) in the given length, len doesn't include the
length of JSR (patch sub skip)
PL_R off writes the opcode for the RTS instruction ($4e75) to
destination+offset (return)
PL_S off,dist writes the opcode for the BRA instruction ($6000) and
the distance given to destination+offset, will always
use word branches (skip)
PL_STR off,str writes the given string to destination+offset, see
example below (string)
PL_STR0 off,str writes the given string plus a 0-byte to destination+
offset, see example below (string 0-terminated)
PL_W off,word writes the given word to destination+offset
Other commands which do not really change the patch destination:
PL_BELL off,tim similar to PL_BKPT but instead of entering a freezer a
color cycle will be shown for the given time or LMB
pressed, time is given in 1/10s (ring the bell)
PL_BKPT off lets WHDload write an ILLEGAL ($4afc) to
destination+offset and saving the original contents,
when the ILLEGAL is executed the original contents is
restored, a NMI stackframe is created and the detected
freezer called, if there is no freezer nothing will be
done, the VBR should be moved by WHDLoad to allow
catching the illegal instruction exception (breakpoint)
PL_GA off,lbl writes the address of destination+offset to where lbl
points to in the slave (get address)
RESULT
the function only returns on success

NAME
resload_PatchSeg -- apply patch list to a segment list
SYNOPSIS
resload_PatchSeg(patchlist, seglist)
A0 A1
APTR BPTR
FUNCTION
This function is similar to resload_Patch. But instead of patching a
memory block at a specific address a segment list will be modified. A
segment list is list of linked memory regions and usually returned by
dos.LoadSeg or resload_Relocate with WHDLTAG_LOADSEG.
INPUTS
patchlist - list of commands describing the patches to apply, see
function resload_Patch for supported commands
seglist - list of segments as returned by dos.LoadSeg or
resload_Relocate (that is a BCPL pointer!)
RESULT
the function only returns on success

NAME
resload_ProtectRead -- mark memory as read protected
SYNOPSIS
resload_ProtectRead(length, address)
D0 A0
ULONG APTR
FUNCTION
Protects the specified memory against reading by the processor.
The memory to protect must be located inside BaseMem or ExpMem.
This can be used for debugging to detect accesses to specific memory
locations.
INPUTS
length - size of the memory area to protect
address - start address of the memory area to protect
The area to protect must be located inside the BaseMem or ExpMem.
RESULT
An "Exception 'Access Fault'" WHDLoad requester if the protected memory
has been read.
EXAMPLE
...
moveq #4,d0 ;one longword
lea $4070,a0 ;address
move.l (_resload,pc),a2
jsr (resload_ProtectRead,a2)
...
BUGS
The amount of protected areas is currently limited to 16.
The page where the SSP points to must not be protected. Because then
the CPU will be unable to write the stack frame if an exception occurs.
Only reset will recover from the resulting Double Bus Fault.
Limitations on MC68020+MC68851:
This hardware is currently not supported.
Limitations on MC68030:
- 3-byte transfers are not supported (occurring on misaligned
longword accesses to page boundaries e.g. 'tst.l $fff' (assumed
4KByte page size))
- locked accesses (tas/cas/cas2) are not supported
Limitations on MC68040:
- instructions which are located on a protected page can read the
protected area without getting detected because these instructions
will cause an access fault for the instruction fetch and then get
executed by the WHDLoad handler without the protection enabled,
under some conditions this may also happen on writes
- locked accesses (tas/cas/cas2) are not supported
- instructions which are located on a protected page and access the
supervisor portion of the status register will be executed wrong
(these instructions will always see the trace bit as 1 and the
interrupt level as 7, any modification of the status register
supervisor portion will be without effect)
- movem instructions which read the memory may access a protected
area without creating a Access Fault exception (only the first bus
cycle of the execution unit will be verified to match the protected
area)
- move16 and double precision operations (FPU) are unsupported
Limitations on MC68060:
- instructions which are located on a protected page can access the
protected area without getting detected because these instructions
will cause an access fault for the instruction fetch and then get
executed by the WHDLoad handler without the protection enabled!
- misaligned access are not supported (occurring on accesses through
a page boundary, for example 'tst.l ($ffe)' (assumed 4 KByte page
size))

- instructions which are located on a protected page and access the
supervisor portion of the status register will be executed wrong

- movem instruction may access a protected area without creating a
Access Fault exception (only the first bus cycle of the execution
unit will be verified to match the protected area)
- move16 and double precision operations (FPU) are unsupported
- a 'move (mem),(mem)' with overlapping source and destination
address which generates an Access Fault because Misalignment
will be executed wrong, for example 'move.l ($ffc),($ffe)' where
page $1000..$1fff is protected and memory before execution
contains ($ffc)=$11112222,($1000)=$33334444, after execution
$1000 contains $11114444 and not $22224444)
Unsupported accesses will result in a "Exception 'Access Fault'"
WHDLoad requester.
NOTE
requires ws_Version >= 6, for the 68040 requires ws_Version >= 18
The MMU must be in use by WHDLoad, otherwise you will get WHDLoad
requester 'Unacceptable Arguments'.
Only accesses to the user and supervisor data stream are affected
(this means not affected are: CPU space accesses (e.g. getting values
from the vector table) and instruction stream accesses).

WHDLoad/resload_ProtectSMC
NAME
resload_ProtectSMC -- detect self modifying code
SYNOPSIS
resload_ProtectSMC(length, address)
D0 A0
ULONG APTR
FUNCTION
Enables automatic detection of self modifying code (SMC) in the
selected area. The selected area will be write protected using the
resload_ProtectWrite mechanism. Additional the trace mode will be
activated and a special handler for trace exceptions installed.
Each write access to the selected area will be logged to a private
memory location. On each instruction executed inside the selected
memory the trace handler verifies, if the instruction has been
previously modified. If an executed instruction has been altered
the installed program will be terminated and WHDLoad will show an
requester informing about the SMC-detection.
To determine the size of an instructions a table is used. This table
contains the opcode size in words depending on the first instruction
word. If the trace exception handler encounters a instruction with an
unknown size WHDLoad will abort displaying 'Internal Error #3'. The
reason for this may be an illegal instruction, an instruction available
only in higher processors than 68000 or an incompleteness of the
internal instruction size table (IST). To check the reason make a
coredump and see which instruction has caused the problem (the
instruction before the actual PC because trace exception occurs after
the execution of the traced instruction). Depending on the reason you
can aid this:
- If it is an illegal instruction you have to fix the installed
program by patching its code.
- If it's caused by a 68020+ instruction we have a problem, because
the IST is designed for 68000 instructions only, where the size of a
instruction can be estimated by the first word and the largest
possible instruction is 5 words. If the instruction size can be
estimated by the first word you may add the instruction to a own
IST (see below).
- If it is a valid 68000 instruction please inform the WHDLoad
author that he adds this instruction to the default IST inside
WHDLoad. For the moment you may add this instruction to an own
IST (see below)
Using an own IST: During the initialization of this function
WHDLoad searches first for an external IST. This external IST must be
located in the same directory where the WHDLoad executable resides and
is searched as 'PROGDIR:WHDLoad.IST'. If there is no external IST the
internal one is used. The assembler source of the internal IST is
included in the developer archive and can be used to build a external
IST.
Due the large exception overhead the execution speed in the selected
area will considerable slow down. To improve performance it is
therefore recommend to relocate the SSP to a Fast-Memory location using
ws_ExpMem and an appropriate initialistion and modification of the
installed program.
To maximize performance when using this facility already during the
initialization of this function the BaseMem area will be set to NC, the
ExpMem and Slave to CB and all caches will be enabled (resload_SetCPU).
INPUTS
length - size of the memory area to protect
address - start address of the memory area to protect
The area to protect must be located inside the BaseMem or ExpMem.
RESULT
A "SMC detected" WHDLoad requester if previously modified memory is
tried to execute.
EXAMPLE
enable SMC-detection for the area $10000..$3e000:
...
move.l #$2e000,d0 ;length
lea $10000,a0 ;address
move.l (_resload,pc),a2
jsr (resload_ProtectSMC,a2)
...
BUGS
Currently supported is the 68030-68060. For limitations and
restrictions regarding the MMU related part of operation see the BUGS
section of resload_ProtectWrite.
You must not protect the page where the SSP points to, if you do so
an Double Bus Fault will occur because the CPU will be unable to
write the exception stack frame. Only reset will recover from a Double
Bus Fault.
NOTE

WHDLoad/resload_Relocate
NAME
resload_Relocate -- relocate an AmigaDOS executable
SYNOPSIS
size = resload_Relocate(address, tags)
D0 A0 A1
ULONG APTR STRUCT
FUNCTION
Relocates a standard AmigaDOS executable in memory. By default the
excutable will be relocated over itself using a multi pass technique.
INPUTS
address - the start address of the executable in memory, this is the
source and also the destination address, i.e.
resload_Relocate will relocates the executable over itself
tags - there are two valid tags starting WHDLoad version 14.1
WHDLTAG_CHIPPTR - specifies a extra memory location where
to put hunks with the memory flag MEMF_CHIP
WHDLTAG_FASTPTR - specifies a extra memory location where
to put hunks with the memory flag MEMF_FAST
the different memory locations must not overlap, WHDLoad
will check that and report 'illegal args' if they do
starting WHDLoad version 15.1 there is another tag:
WHDLTAG_ALIGN - it specifies an alignment for the hunks,
the number given must be an positive integer which is
a power of 2, all hunk lengths will be rounded up to
a multiple of this value, useful is 8 to be compatible
with exec.AllocMem used by dos.LoadSeg
starting WHDLoad version 16.3 there is another tag:
WHDLTAG_LOADSEG - if specified the function creates a
segment list as if loaded via dos.LoadSeg,
resload_PatchSeg can be used to modify the relocated
segment list
RESULT
size - size of the relocated executable
(this may be more or less than the size of the executable,
depending on the presence and size of BSS hunks)
if WHDLTAG_CHIPPTR or WHDLTAG_FASTPTR is used the returned size
excludes the size of the hunks relocated to different memory
destinations
tags - for WHDLTAG_CHIPPTR and WHDLTAG_FASTPTR the ti_Data field will
be overwritten with the length of data stored in this area
the function only returns on success

BUGS
The routine supports all hunks supported by Kickstart 1.3 except
OVERLAY. Anyway it is only tested with a limited amount of
executables, please report any problems or bugs.
NOTE
requires ws_Version >= 8
The function uses several stack for variables. The amount depends on
the number of hunks in the executable and can be calculated as
'used stack = hunks * 20 + 40'.
Upto WHDLoad version 16.9 the executable must not contain more than 256
hunks. Starting WHDLoad version 17.0 512 hunks are supported. Beware of
the stack space, for 512 hunks more than 10 KiB stack are required.
The routine performs automatically a resload_FlushCache before
returning.

BOOL ULONG ULONG ULONG CPTR APTR
FUNCTION
Writes specified memory area to a file at specified offset using the
specified file name.
If the file does previously not exist or is shorter than the given
offset the missing space before the write is filled with the
character $DD.
If multiple data directories are used always the file in the first
data directory will be written. If the file exist in an other data
directory than the first it will be copied to the first directory
before performing the save operation.
Possible missing sub directories are only created by WHDLoad if the
option SavePath/S is in use.
INPUTS
size - amount of bytes to write
offset - offset in the file to write
name - name of file to write
address - memory address of buffer to write
RESULT
success - TRUE on success

resload_SetCACR -- set cacheability for BaseMem
SYNOPSIS

D0 D0 D1
ULONG ULONG ULONG
FUNCTION
This function enables/disables the CPU caches.
The changes will affect the CACR (Cache Control Register) and
the MMU-tables if the MMU is used by WHDLoad.
INPUTS
new - new cache status
mask - status bits to change
valid values for new and mask are:
CACRF_EnableI - instruction cache
CACRF_EnableD - data cache
(bits are defined in the NDK include file 'exec/execbase.i')
RESULT
old - old cache status
EXAMPLE
to enable instruction cache:
...
move.l #CACRF_EnableI,d0 ;new status
move.l d0,d1 ;status to change
move.l (_resload,pc),a2
jsr (resload_SetCACR,a2)
...
NOTE
It is safe to call this routine from User or Supervisor mode and
independent from the actual CPU type (also on 68000/010).
If WHDLoad is launched with the option NoCache/S this routine will
return without changing anything (all memory is always noncacheable).
Don't be surprised if you see in the coredump or in a freezer that
caches are enabled even if not enabled by the Slave. Because if the
MMU is used by WHDLoad and no caches are switched on by the Slave,
WHDLoad marks the BaseMem using the MMU as noncacheable-serialized
and enables both caches so that the memory of WHDLoad and the Slave
are still cacheable to increase the performance.
The caches are flushed after returning from this routine.
This routine internal calls resload_SetCPU.

NOTE
requires ws_Version >= 10
It is safe to call this routine from User or Supervisor mode and
independent from the actual CPU type (also on 68000/010).
If WHDLoad is launched with the option NoCache/S this routine will
return without changing anything (all memory is always noncacheable).
Don't be surprised if you see in the coredump or in a freezer that
caches are enabled even if not enabled by the Slave. Because if the
MMU is used by WHDLoad and caches are disabled by the Slave,
WHDLoad marks the memory using the MMU as noncacheable-serialized
and enables both caches so that the memory of WHDLoad is still
cacheable to increase the performance.
The caches are flushed after returning from this routine.

NAME
resload_VSNPrintF -- format data into a character stream
SYNOPSIS
length,end = resload_VSNPrintF(buflen, buffer, format, data stream)
D0 A0 D0 A0 A1 A2
ULONG CPTR ULONG APTR CPTR APTR
FUNCTION
This function performs a exec.RawDoFmt/C.sprintf-like formatting of
data stream values according to the provided format string. Where %
formatting commands found in the format string are replaced with the
corresponding elements in the data stream. %% must be used in the
format string if a % is desired in the output.
Formatting commands have the form:
%[flags][width][.limit][length]type
flags - supported flags are:
'0' zero padding; the converted value is padded with zeros
rather than blanks
'-' negative field with; converted value is to be left
adjusted on the filed boundary, a '-' overrides a '0' if
both are given
width - field width; if the converted value has fewer characters
than the field width, it will be padded with spaces on the
left to fill out the field width
limit - maximum number of characters to output from a string (only
valid for %s)
length - length modifier; specifies size of the data value from the
data stream, defaults to WORD for types d, x and c, 'l'
changes this to long (32-bit)
type - supported types are:
'b' - BSTR, 32-bit BPTR to byte count followed by a byte
string, or NULL terminated byte string
a NULL BPTR is treated as an empty string
'B' - BPTR, BCPL pointer, 32-bit value * 4 will by printed
hexadecimal
'd' - decimal
'u' - unsigned decimal
'x' - hexadecimal
's' - string, a 32-bit pointer to a NULL terminated byte
string. a NULL pointer is treated as an empty string
'c' - single character (WORD)
INPUTS
buflen - length of the provided buffer
buffer - buffer to fill with the character stream
format - string containing formatting options using the % char
data stream - a stream of values (WORDs/LONGs) which are interpreted
according to the format string
RESULT
length - the amount of characters which would have been written to the
buffer in case the buffer length were unlimited, not
including the final '\0' character
end - points to the final '\0' character written to the buffer (if
buflen>0)
EXAMPLE
Format a single number:
...
lea (_buf,pc),a0 ;buffer
moveq #80,d0 ;buffer length
lea (_fmt,pc),a1 ;format
lea (_val,pc),a2
move.l (_resload,pc),a6
jsr (resload_VSNPrintF,a6)
...
_val dc.w 842
_fmt dc.b "NumberDecimal=%d",0
_buf ds.b 80
...
Format a text message containing some variables on the stack:
...
lea (_fmt,pc),a1 ;format
move.l (_adr,pc),-(a7) ;put vars on stack, last first
pea (_nam2,pc)
move.l (_seq,pc),-(a7)
move.l a7,a2 ;arguments
moveq #200,d0 ;buffer length
sub.l d0,a7 ;reserve buffer on stack
move.l a7,a0 ;buffer
move.l (_resload,pc),a6
jsr (resload_VSNPrintF,a6)
move.l a7,a0
jsr (_DoSomethingWithStringA0)
add.w #212,a7 ;free vars and buffer
...
_fmt dc.b "[%04ld] %s=$%lx",0

WHDLoad.Slave/--Overview--
The WHDLoad.Slave contains the interface code which makes the installed
program able to load his files from harddisk. Additional it should provide
a possibility to quit the program to return to the OS.
FORMAT
Is a standard AmigaDOS executable. But:
The Slave MUST consist of only ONE hunk (ONE section).
The Slave MUST be 100% PC-relative (must not contain relocations).
It may contain debug/symbol hunks which are ignored.
STRUCTURE
At the beginning of the Slave is the 'WHDLoadSlave' structure. After
it follows the specific code and data.
STRUCTURE WHDLoadSlave,0
STRUCT ws_Security,4
STRUCT ws_ID,8
UWORD ws_Version
UWORD ws_Flags
ULONG ws_BaseMemSize
ULONG ws_ExecInstall
RPTR ws_GameLoader
RPTR ws_CurrentDir
RPTR ws_DontCache
( LABEL ws_SIZEOF_pre_v4 )
UBYTE ws_keydebug
UBYTE ws_keyexit
( LABEL ws_SIZEOF_pre_v8 )
ULONG ws_ExpMem
( LABEL ws_SIZEOF_pre_v10 )
RPTR ws_name
RPTR ws_copy
RPTR ws_info
( LABEL ws_SIZEOF_pre_v16 )
RPTR ws_kickname
ULONG ws_kicksize
UWORD ws_kickcrc
( LABEL ws_SIZEOF_pre_v17 )
RPTR ws_config
LABEL ws_SIZEOF
ws_Security
Contains the code
moveq #-1,d0
rts
to avoid problems if someone executes the Slave directly.
ws_ID
Contains the string 'WHDLOADS' to identify the program as a
WHDLoad Slave.
(the macro SLAVE_HEADER defined in the include file 'whdload.i' can be
used to create the entries ws_Security and ws_ID)
ws_Version
Contains the version of WHDLoad that is required by the Slave.
Some resload functions need at least a specific version of
WHDLoad. E.g. to use resload_CRC16 you must set ws_Version
to 3 or higher.
On the other side the size of the WHDLoad Slave structure
differs for different Slave versions. I.e. if you set
ws_Version to 16 or higher you MUST also initialize the fields
up to ws_kickcrc (even if you don't use a Kickstart image).
ws_Flags
WHDLF_Disk / WHDLB_Disk
This flag should be enabled if the program uses disk images.
As a result Preload/S is working slightly different.
(starting WHDLoad 0.143 this flag is obsolete and ignored)
WHDLF_NoError / WHDLB_NoError
If enabled every error occurring in a resload_#? function
forces WHDLoad to quit immediately and showing an error
requester about the reason.
Using this flag makes it unnecessary for the Slave to check
the return codes of resload_#? functions. The Slave can then
be sure that if a function returns it was successful which
simplifies the Slave code.
WHDLF_EmulTrap / WHDLB_EmulTrap
This flag has an effect only if the VBR is moved by WHDLoad
(i.e. the machine is at least a 68010 and the tooltype
NoVBRMove is not set).
If the flag is set all 'Trap #0..15's are emulated by the
exception handler inside WHDLoad. I.e. the handler checks
if the appropriate trap vector ($80-$bc) is initialized,
and if the routine at the vector address will be called by
WHDLoad.
WHDLF_NoDivZero / WHDLB_NoDivZero
This flag has an effect only if the VBR is moved by WHDLoad
(i.e. the machine is at least a 68010 and the tooltype
NoVBRMove is not set).
If the flag is set and a 'Division by Zero' exception
occurs WHDLoad will not quit with an requester, but perform
a RTE.
This maybe useful if the demo/game creates randomly
divisions by zero.
WHDLF_Req68020 / WHDLB_Req68020
This flag indicates that the Slave/installed program
requires at least a MC68020 CPU. WHDLoad will check at the
startup if this requirement is fulfilled. If it doesn't the
program will be terminated with an appropriate requester.
WHDLF_ReqAGA / WHDLB_ReqAGA
This flag indicates that the Slave/installed program
requires at least the AGA chipset. WHDLoad will check at the
startup if this requirement is fulfilled. If it doesn't the
program will be terminated with an appropriate requester.
WHDLF_NoKbd / WHDLB_NoKbd
This flag tells WHDLoad that it doesn't should acknowledge
the keyboard if a key was pressed. This must be used with
programs which doesn't check the keyboard from the PORTS
interrupt ($68). Background information: In normal
operation when NoVBRMove is inactive, WHDLoad checks if a
key was pressed on each interrupt. If a key has been
pressed it checks the rawkey code against QuitKey, DebugKey
and FreezeKey. If it doesn't match any of them it checks if
there is an initialized PORTS interrupt ($68). If there is
no one it replies the keyboard that the keycode has been
received. Therefore when the installed program later checks
the keyboard from e.g. the VBI, it will never receive any
keycodes. This flag avoids the keyboard acknowledge done by
WHDLoad.
WHDLF_EmulLineA / WHDLB_EmulLineA
This flag has an effect only if the VBR is moved by WHDLoad
(i.e. the machine is at least a 68010 and the tooltype
NoVBRMove is not set).
If the flag is set all exceptions 'Line-A' (caused by
opcodes starting with %1010) are emulated by the
exception handler inside WHDLoad. I.e. the handler checks
if the vector ($28) is initialized and if the routine to
which the vector points will be called by WHDLoad.
WHDLF_EmulTrapV / WHDLB_EmulTrapV
This flag has an effect only if the VBR is moved by WHDLoad
(i.e. the machine is at least a 68010 and the tooltype
NoVBRMove is not set).
If the flag is set all exceptions caused by a 'TrapV'
instruction are emulated by the exception handler inside
WHDLoad. I.e. the handler checks if the vector ($1C) is
initialized and if the routine to which the vector points
will be called by WHDLoad.
WHDLF_EmulChk / WHDLB_EmulChk
This flag has an effect only if the VBR is moved by WHDLoad
(i.e. the machine is at least a 68010 and the tooltype
NoVBRMove is not set).
If the flag is set all exceptions caused by a 'Chk/Chk2'
instruction are emulated by the exception handler inside
WHDLoad. I.e. the handler checks if the vector ($18) is
initialized and if the routine to which the vector points
will be called by WHDLoad.
WHDLF_EmulPriv / WHDLB_EmulPriv
This flag has an effect only if the VBR is moved by WHDLoad
(i.e. the machine is at least a 68010 and the tooltype
NoVBRMove is not set).
If the flag is set all privilege violation exceptions are
emulated by the exception handler inside WHDLoad. I.e. the
handler checks if the vector ($20) is initialized and if
the routine to which the vector points will be called by
WHDLoad.
WHDLF_EmulLineF / WHDLB_EmulLineF
This flag has an effect only if the VBR is moved by WHDLoad
(i.e. the machine is at least a 68010 and the tooltype
NoVBRMove is not set).
If the flag is set all exceptions 'Line-F' (caused by
opcodes starting with %1111) are emulated by the
exception handler inside WHDLoad. I.e. the handler checks
if the vector ($2C) is initialized and if the routine to
which the vector points will be called by WHDLoad.
WHDLF_ClearMem / WHDLB_ClearMem
If that flag is set WHDLoad will not init BaseMem with the
pattern $CCCCCCCC and ExpMem with $DDDDDDDD but simply
clear these memories.
WHDLF_Examine / WHDLB_Examine
This flag must be set if the functions
resload_Examine/ExNext will be used. It causes WHDLoad to
cache information about all files and directories. This
consumes memory and takes time at startup. Therefore it
shouldn't be used without necessity.
WHDLF_EmulDivZero / WHDLB_EmulDivZero
This flag has an effect only if the VBR is moved by WHDLoad
(i.e. the machine is at least a 68010 and the tooltype
NoVBRMove is not set).
If the flag is set all division by zero exceptions are
emulated by the exception handler inside WHDLoad. I.e. the
handler checks if the vector ($14) is initialized and if
the routine to which the vector points to will be called by
WHDLoad.
This flag has precedence over the flag NoDivZero.
WHDLF_EmulIllegal / WHDLB_EmulIllegal
This flag has an effect only if the VBR is moved by WHDLoad
(i.e. the machine is at least a 68010 and the tooltype
NoVBRMove is not set).
If the flag is set all illegal instruction exceptions are
emulated by the exception handler inside WHDLoad. I.e. the
handler checks if the vector ($10) is initialized and if
the routine to which the vector points will be called by
WHDLoad.
ws_BaseMemSize
The size of the memory that is required by the program.
The BaseMemory starts at $00000000 and ends at ws_BaseMemSize.
BaseMemory is always ChipMem.
This value must be multiple of $1000.
The valid minimum is $2000 and the maximum is $200000.
ws_ExecInstall
obsolete, must be set to 0
ws_GameLoader
A relative (to the start of the structure) 16-bit pointer
to the start code of the Slave. This is the entry point of the
Slave code.
ws_CurrentDir
A relative (to the start of the structure) 16-bit pointer
to a 0 terminated string which is the name of the path
where all files are stored (sub directory).
If no sub directory should be used this must be initialized
with 0.
The path to the sub directory must be relative (must not
contain ':').
ws_DontCache
A relative (to the start of the structure) 16-bit pointer
to a 0 terminated string which is a standard AmigaDOS
pattern (dos.ParsePattern, dos.MatchPattern).
All files matching this pattern will not by cached by WHDLoad.
If not in use it must be set to 0.
The following variables are only evaluated by WHDLoad if ws_Version
is set to >= 4. The following variables MUST be initialized if you set
ws_Version to >= 4.
ws_keydebug
The raw key code to exit with writing debug files.
This variable will be overwritten by WHDLoad using the value
specified with the option DebugKey/K/N if set.
If the Slave provides an own handler to support a debug option
via the keyboard it should use this value for comparison. So
it will be possible for the user to change the key suggested
by the Slave.
WHDLoad itself also checks for this key code on each interrupt
if the VBR is moved (requires 68010+ and that NoVBRMove/S is
not set).
If this variable is set to 0 the WHDLoad default will be used.
Starting WHDLoad version 17.0 the contents of this variable
is ignored. It is always overwritten by WHDLoad with the
default or the specified DebugKey/K/N.
The recommended value is 0.
ws_keyexit
The raw key code to exit.
This variable will be overwritten by WHDLoad using the value
specified with the option QuitKey/K/N if set.
If the Slave provides an own handler to support a quit option
via the keyboard it should use this value for comparison. So
it will be possible to the user to change the key suggested
by the Slave.
WHDLoad itself also checks for this key code on each interrupt
if the VBR is moved (requires 68010+ and that NoVBRMove/S is
not set).
The recommended value is $59 = 'F10'.
The following variables are only evaluated by WHDLoad if ws_Version
is set to >= 8. The following variables MUST be initialized if you set
ws_Version to >= 8.
ws_ExpMem
If the installed program requires expansion memory, the size
must be specified here. WHDLoad will allocate a memory block
of this size and writes a pointer to the start of the
allocated memory back to this entry. The memory is granted to
be aligned to $1000 (4096 bytes). The size specified must be
a multiple of $1000 (4096). If WHDLoad fails to allocate
this memory it terminates with an appropriate error requester.
That means the Slave will always get a valid pointer here.
Starting WHDLoad version 10.2 the value can be negative. A
negative size means that the memory is optional and not
required. WHDLoad will try to allocate it and if it fails it
will set ws_ExpMem to zero. Therefore the Slave has to check
the contents of ws_ExpMem.
The following variables are only evaluated by WHDLoad if ws_Version
is set to >= 10. The following variables MUST be initialized if you set
ws_Version to >= 10.
ws_name
A relative (to the start of the structure) 16-bit pointer
to a 0 terminated string containing the name of the installed
program. e.g. 'Super Hang Off'.
The name is used in the splash window and in conjunction with
the SavePath/K feature.
ws_copy
A relative (to the start of the structure) 16-bit pointer
to a 0 terminated string containing the copyright of the
installed program. The string should start with the year
followed by the companies holding the copyright. Multiple years
or companies should be separated with ', '.
e.g. '1983 Schega, 1989 Bad Dreams'
The copyright is displayed in the splash window.
ws_info
A relative (to the start of the structure) 16-bit pointer
to a 0 terminated string containing additional infos about the
installed program. The string may also contain line feeds
($0a). The character -1 has a special meaning. It results in
a line feed and an additional vertical skip of the half font
height. e.g.:
dc.b "installed & fixed by Wepl",10
dc.b "version 1.4 (06.06.2066)",-1
dc.b "greetings to the world",0
The infos are displayed in the splash window.
The following variables are only evaluated by WHDLoad if ws_Version
is set to >= 16. The following variables MUST be initialized if you set
ws_Version to >= 16.
ws_kickname
A relative (to the start of the structure) 16-bit pointer
to a 0 terminated string containing the name of the Kickstart
image to be loaded by WHDLoad into ExpMem. The path
'DEVS:Kickstarts/' will be prepended by WHDLoad to find the
file. The name should be something like 'kick34005.A500'.
ws_kicksize
The size of the Kickstart image to load.
ws_kickcrc
The CRC16 checksum for the Kickstart image to load.
Starting WHDLoad 16.1 there is a special mode which supports multiple
Kickstart images within the same Slave. The special mode is activated
by using -1 as the value for ws_kickcrc. ws_kickname contains then a
relative pointer to a table which contains pairs of CRC16 and relative
pointers to a Kickstart name. The table is terminated with a CRC16 of
0. WHDLoad will try to load Kickstarts from the table until it finds
one with the correct CRC16. After the successful load the CRC16 of the
loaded Kickstart image will be placed in ws_kickcrc (overwriting the
-1) so the Slave can recognize which Kickstart image has been loaded.
The following variables are only evaluated by WHDLoad if ws_Version
is set to >= 17. The following variables MUST be initialized if you set
ws_Version to >= 17.
ws_config
A relative (to the start of the structure) 16-bit pointer
to a 0 terminated string containing infos about configuration
items to be displayed in the WHDLoad startup splash window.
Possible items are the options ButtonWait and Custom1-5. For
each item specified here a gadget will be added to the splash
window, allowing the user easily to modify this option.
The syntax in a EBNF is as follows:
Config = ConfigOption { ";" ConfigOption } ;
ConfigOption = Option [ ":" Type ":" Label [ ":" Spec ] ] ;
Option = "BW" | "C1" | "C2" | "C3" | "C4" | "C5" ;
(* BW - ButtonWait, without Type *)
(* C1..C5 - Custom1..5, requires Type *)
Type = "B" | "L" | "X" ;
(* B - Boolean *)
(* L - List of values, cycle gadget, Spec is list of
SpecOptions *)
(* X - Boolean only 1 bit used, Spec is the bit number
0-31 *)
Spec = Number | ( SpecOption { "," SpecOption } ) ;
Number = [0-9] ;
SpecOption = Label ;
Label = CHR(32..255) except [,:;] ;
On Type=Boolean (also ButtonWait) the result will be 0 for
unchecked and 1 for checked. On Type=List the result will be
0 for the first SpecOption and is incremented by 1 for each
subsequent SpecOption.
Example:
dc.b "BW;"
dc.b "C1:B:Skip Intro;"
dc.b "C2:X:Activate Trainer:0;"
dc.b "C3:L:Load Game Position:None,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9;"
dc.b "C4:L:Brightness:default,+50%,+100%"
dc.b 0
CONVENTIONS for ws_GameLoader
The state of the whole system at the time when ws_GameLoader is called
is as follows:
CPU:
SR = $2000 Supervisor-mode, all interrupts enabled
SSP = ws_BaseMemSize at the end of BaseMem
USP = SSP-$400 at the end of BaseMem - 1024
A0 = Resload pointer to the Jump-Tower in WHDLoad
D0-D7/A1-A6 random (D0=$d0d0d0d0 D1=...)
Nothing more is interesting from the Slave programmers point
of view. All special registers like VBR,SFC,DFC,CAAR,CACR,MSP,
TC,MMUSR,CRP,SRP,URP,TT0,TT1,DTT0,DTT1,ITT0,ITT1,PCR,BUSCR are
WHDLoad private and MUST NOT BE CHANGED.

creating an 'Address Error' or 'Access Fault' exception
$00000008...$00000400
if WHDLoad has moved the VBR it contains $CCCCCCCC
else it contains a pointer to an exception handler
inside WHDLoad
$00000400...ws_BaseMemSize
contains $CCCCCCCC, this memory fill pattern is used to
easily recognize modified memory
