Changes to XTIDE Universal BIOS:

  • P-Cylinders returned by AH=48h are now calculated from L-CHS capacity when RESERVE_DIAGNOSTIC_CYLINDER is defined.
  • Total sector count returned by AH=48h is now always P-Cylinders * P-Heads * P-Sectors per track for drives with less than or equal 15,482,880 LBA sectors.

24; Int 13h function AH=48h, Get Extended Drive Parameters.
25;
26; It is not completely clear what this function should return as total sector count in some cases.
27; What is certain is that:
28; A) Phoenix Enhanced Disk Drive Specification v3.0 says that P-CHS values
29; are never returned for drives with more than 15,482,880 sectors (16384*15*63).
30; For those drives we can simply return total sector count from
31; ATA ID WORDs 60 and 61 (LBA28) or WORDs 100-103 (LBA48).
32; B) IBM PC DOS 7.1 fdisk32 displays warning message if P-CHS values multiplied
33; together are different than total sector count. Therefore for drives with less
34; than or equal 15,482,880 sectors we MUST NOT return total sector count from
35; ATA ID WORDs 60 and 61.
36;
37; Lets take an example. 6 GB Hitachi microdrive reports following values in ATA ID:
38; Sector count from WORDs 60 and 61 : 12,000,556
39; Cylinders : 11905
40; Heads : 16
41; Sectors per track : 63
42;
43; When multiplying C*H*S we get : 12,000,240
44; So the CHS size is a little bit less than LBA size. But we must use
45; the smaller value since C*H*S must equal total sector count!
46;
47; Now we get to the uncertain area where I could not find any information.
48; Award BIOS from 1997 Pentium motherboard returns following values:
49; AH=08h L-CHS: 745, 255, 63 (exactly the same as what we return)
50; => Total Sector Count: 745*255*63 = 11,968,425
51; AH=48h P-CHS: 11873, 16, 63
52; AH=48h Total Sector Count: 11873* 16*63 = 11,967,984
53;
54; Notice how AH=48h returns lesser total sector count than AH=8h! The only
55; way I could think of to get 11873 cylinders is to divide AH=08h sector
56; count with P-CHS heads and sectors: (745*255*63) / (16*63) = 11873
57;
58; I have no idea what is the reasoning behind it but at least there is one
59; BIOS that does just that.
60;
61; Since I don't have any better knowledge, I decided that when RESERVE_DIAGNOSTIC_CYLINDER
62; is defined, we do what the Award BIOS does. When it is not defined, we multiply
63; P-CHS values together and use that as total sector count.
