A man page is intended to answer concisely the question “What does it do?” The man pages in general comprise a reference manual. They are not intended to be a tutorial. The following contains a brief description of each section in the man pages and the information it references: Section 1 describes, in alphabetical order, commands available with the operating system. Section 1M describes, in alphabetical order, commands that are used chiefly for system maintenance and administration purposes. Section 2 describes all of the system calls. Most of these calls have one or more error returns. An error condition is indicated by an otherwise impossible returned value. Section 3 describes functions found in various libraries, other than those functions that directly invoke UNIX system primitives, which are described in Section 2 of this volume. Section 4 outlines the formats of various files. The C structure declarations for the file formats are given where applicable. Section 5 contains miscellaneous documentation such as character set tables. Section 6 contains available games and demos. PREFACE xi Section 7 describes various special files that refer to specific hardware peripherals, and device drivers. STREAMS software drivers, modules and the STREAMS-generic set of system calls are also described. Section 9 provides reference information needed to write device drivers in the kernel operating systems environment. It describes two device driver interface specifications: the Device Driver Interface (DDI) and the Driver/Kernel Interface (DKI).

  • ATA, IDE and EIDE
    ATA, IDE and EIDE Overview The ATA (Advanced Technology Attachment) standard is a standard interface that allows you to connect storage peripherals to PC computers. The ATA standard was developed on May 12, 1994 by the ANSI (document X3.221-1994). Despite the official name "ATA", this standard is better known by the commercial term IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) or Enhanced IDE (EIDE or E-IDE). The ATA standard was originally intended for connecting hard drives, however an extension called ATAPI (ATA Packet Interface) was developed in order to be able to interface other storage peripherals (CD-ROM drives, DVD-ROM drives, etc.) on an ATA interface. Since the Serial ATA standard (written S-ATA or SATA) has emerged, which allows you to transfer data over a serial link, the term "Parallel ATA" (writtenPATA or P-ATA) sometimes replaces the term "ATA" in order to differentiate between the two standards. The Principle The ATA standard allows you to connect storage peripherals directly with the motherboard thanks to a ribbon cable, which is generally made up of 40 parallel wires and three connectors (usually a blue connector for the motherboard and a black connector and a grey connector for the two storage peripherals). On the cable, one of the peripherals must be declared the master cable and the other the slave. It is understood that the far connector (black) is reserved for the master peripheral and the middle connector (grey) for the slave peripheral. A mode called cable select (abbreviated as CS or C/S) allows you to automatically define the master and slave peripherals as long as the computer's BIOS supports this functionality.

  • Secondary Storage 9
    Introduction to Computer Architecture Secondary Storage 9. Secondary Storage Secondary Storage refers to storage devices which are generally not solid-state in nature and usually have moving parts. This electro-mechanical characteristic makes them very slow in terms of access time, which is measured in anything from milliseconds (for hard drives) to seconds or minutes (for tape drives). In exchange for this penalty we gain storage capacity. This capacity is achieved not necessarily by high densities of data on each media, but by the removability and replaceability of media, which makes such storage effectively infinite. Also, these media are non-volatile, and are a necessary part of any computer system for long term storage of programs and data. External secondary storage devices are characterized as either serial, such as magnetic tape, or direct access, such as disk drives. The media itself is generally either magnetic (both tape and hard disk drives) or optical (CD-ROMs). We will focus on the various kinds of disk drives for the remainder of this chapter. Magnetic Disks Magnetic disks come in two flavors: ‘floppy’ and ‘hard’ (called ‘fixed’ by IBM). Both types of disks use magnetic media and both are block-oriented devices with a block size of 512 bytes (in the Wintel49 architecture). The magnetic material coats each surface of a circular disk, and information is written and read from this surface using read/write heads much like the read/write heads in an audio tape record but manufactured, of course, to much higher tolerances and specifications. Floppy disks are constructed from mylar, or similar plastic material which provides the support for the ferrous-oxide based magnetic media.

Given the importance and magnitude of this knowledge, the best way to approach it is in sections. The frst chapter introduced the topic via the primary core components, and this chapter follows up where it left off. Specifcally, this chapter focuses on storage devices and power supplies. Identifying Purposes and Characteristics of Storage Devices What good is a computer without a place to put everything? Storage media hold the data being accessed as well as the fles the system needs to operate and data that needs to be saved.
