[syslinux] INT22h/000Dh

[Piotr Romaniuk]

Hi,

I added proper entry in vector table (i.e. comapi_chainboot), but after 
I call int22h/000Dh it hangs and does not start my code. Am I doing 
something wrong in setup of this interrupt arguments?

     com32sys_t input_regs, output_regs;
     input_regs.eax.l=0xd;
     input_regs.edx.l=0x0;
     input_regs.edi.l=OFFS(buffer);
     input_regs.ecx.l=512;
     input_regs.ebx.l=0x80;
     input_regs.esi.l=0x0;
     input_regs.ds=0;
     input_regs.es=0;

     __com32.cs_intcall(0x22, &input_regs, &output_regs);

The buffer contained simple code, just to signal if it is executed on GPIO:
     buffer:
         cli
         mov  $GPIO_PORT, dx
         mov  $GPIO_VALUE, al
         out  al, (dx)
     L:  jmp L

PS
I run this on Atom E640.
