IOS est le systeme d' exploitation qui tourne sur le coprossesseur Starlet àl' interieur du processeur principale Hollywood. Il fournit les services qui sont employé par le systeme de la wii pour accéder à la plupart des dispositifs du systeme.

IPC

La communication avec l' IOS depuis du code PPC est possible avec un mecanisme IPC (Instruction Per Cycle) qui est la frĂ©quence des actions exĂ©cuter par cycle . Il existe 7 actions :

  1. open
  2. close
  3. read
  4. write
  5. seek
  6. ioctl
  7. ioctlv

Here is a sample implementation, not guaranteed to work: ipc.c 

ipc struct size = 40, aligned to 20

00:     cmd     // 1=open 2=close 3=read 4=write 5=seek 6=ioctl 7=ioctlv
04:     ret
08:     fd
0c:     arg[5]
20:     async1
24:     async2
28:     0
40:     relaunch, used for ioctlvreboot

open:   fd = 0
        arg0, arg1: name, mode (1=read 2=write)

close:  fd

read:   fd
        arg0, arg1: addr, len

write:  fd
        arg0, arg1: addr, len

seek:   fd
        arg0, arg1: where, whence

ioctl:  fd
        arg0: ioctl #
        arg1, arg2: addr, len
        arg3, arg4: addr, len

ioctlv: fd
        arg0: ioctl #
        arg1: # in
        arg2: # out (or in-out)
        arg3: pointer to # in plus # out pairs of (addr, len)

fd is a handle you get back from ios on "open", and that you should pass back to all other calls --segher

Most non-trivial operations are performed by opening one of the below resources, then calling ioctl or ioctlv on it.

The Starlet kernel hands these calls over to the individual drivers / processes within the Starlet. The processes register themselves to handle requests by creating one or more queues and assigning them to handle requests from a particular /dev device.

For testing out IOS devices, you can use the EasyIOS application for the wii.
