  • Experiment #0
    LAB. 2: BIOS Interrupts (Int 10h) Text and Pixel based Graphics Objectives: The objective of this experiment is to introduce BIOS interrupt service routines to write assembly language programs for text and pixel based graphics. 1.1 Introduction: The Basic Input Output System (BIOS) is a set of x86 subroutines stored in Read-Only Memory (ROM) that can be used by any operating system (DOS, Windows, Linux, etc) for low-level input/output to various devices. Some of the services provided by BIOS are also provided by DOS. In fact, a large number of DOS services make use of BIOS services. There are different types of interrupts available which are divided into several categories as shown below: Interrupt Types Description 0h - 1Fh BIOS Interrupts 20h - 3Fh DOS Interrupts 40h - 7Fh reserved 80h - F0h ROM BASIC F1h - FFh not used BIOS interrupt routines provide a number of services that can be used to write programs. These services include formatting disks, creating disk files, reading from or writing to files, reading from keyboard, writing to display monitor, etc. The software interrupt instruction INT is used for calling these services. In text mode, the cursor is always displayed on the screen and the resolution is indicated as number of characters per line and number of lines per screen. In graphics mode, the cursor will not appear on the screen and the resolution is specified as number of pixels per line and number of lines per screen. Text can be used as usual in graphics mode. 1 1.2 Text Mode Programming 0,0 0,79 0,4F(hex) Screen Center 12,39 0C,27(hex) 24,0 24,79 18,0(hex) 18,4F(hex) Positions on the screen are referenced using (row, column) coordinates.

Patching the BIOS Many places that we can insert code - Ultimately we want to subvert the bootloader - The bootloader relies on the Interrupt Vector Table - The IVT is created dynamically BIOS calls int 19h (“the bootstrap loader” vector) - Append code before this call after IVT is built - Rewrite IVT to hook desired interrupt Caveats: - May require physical access (write protect jumper) - Secure Flash may prevent unsigned updates 2.

  • Graphics in Pmode Video Timing VGA Super VGA (SVGA)
    Graphics in pmode 'How do I enable graphics from protected mode?' 1. You don't. Graphics programming is fun, but graphics are hardly essential for an OS. Don't get side-tracked. 2. Call the BIOS mode-set interrupt in the 16-bit boot code, before the pmode kernel starts. 3. Use protected-mode code to program the VGA directly, without using the BIOS. This works only with VGA- compatible video boards and VGA-compatible video modes. 4. Add a virtual 8086 mode monitor (VMM) to your OS. Call the BIOS mode-set interrupt in virtual 8086 mode. 5. Switch from pmode to real mode, call the BIOS mode-set interrupt in real mode, then return to pmode. 6. Write a protected-mode driver specifically for the SVGA chip used in your video board. Someone else who wants to use your OS must have the same video board (or they must write a new driver for their own video board). 7. Call VBE 3.x BIOS functions in 16-bit protected mode. Few video cards support VBE 3.x. Video timing Dot clock (pixel clock) Character clock = dot clock divided by 8 or 9 Horizontal sync (retrace) frequency = character clock / horizontal total Horizontal total / horizontal displayed ~ 1.2 (20% overscan) Vertical sync (retrace) frequency = horizontal sync frequency / vertical total Vertical total / vertical displayed ~ 1.1 (10% overscan) VGA INT 10h VGA BIOS interrupts which work in real or virtual-8086 mode only, to set mode, change font, etc. Dot clock is one of: 28.35, 25.2, 14.175, or 12.6 MHz Character clock is dot clock divided by 8 or 9 Horizontal sync frequency for very old VGA monitors is always 31.5 kHz.

    VBE Core Standard VESA ® Video Electronics Standards Association 2150 North First Street, Suite 440 Phone: (408) 435-0333 San Jose, CA 95131-2029 FAX: (408) 435-8225 VESA BIOS EXTENSION (VBE) Core Functions Standard Version: 2.0 Document Revision: 1.1 Ratification Date: November 18, 1994 Purpose To standardize a modular, software interface to display and audio devices. The VBE interface is intended to simplify and encourage the development of applications that wish to use graphics, video, and audio devices without specific knowledge of the internal operation of the evolving target hardware. Summary The VBE standard defines a set of extensions to the VGA ROM BIOS services. These functions can be accessed under DOS through interrupt 10h, or be called directly by high performance 32-bit applications and operating systems other than DOS. These extensions also provide a hardware-independent mechanism to obtain vendor information, and serve as an extensible foundation for OEMs and VESA to facilitate rapid software support of emerging hardware technology without sacrificing backwards compatibility.
