PC Card Driver Functions (Windows CE 5.0)
The following table shows the PC Card driver functions.
| Programming element | Description |
|---|---|
| CardAccessConfigurationRegister | This function reads or writes the function and configuration registers of a PC Card. |
| CardDeregisterClient | This function removes a PC Card client driver's registration from card services. |
| CardGetEventMask | This function retrieves either the driver's global event mask or the event mask for a particular socket and function. The event mask specifies the events that trigger a callback. |
| CardGetFirstTuple | This function retrieves the first tuple of the specified type for the specified socket and function. |
| CardGetNextTuple | This function retrieves the next tuple of the specified type for the specified socket and function. |
| CardGetParsedTuple | This function reads and decodes the CISTPL_CONFIG and CISTPL_CFTABLE_ENTRY tuples. These tuples are both complex and difficult to decode. This function stores the information in those tuples in data structures that are easier to access. |
| CardGetStatus | This function retrieves the current status of the specified socket and function pair. |
| CardGetTupleData | This function reads the data from the current tuple. |
| CardMapWindow | This function maps an area in PC Card memory or I/O space to system memory and returns a pointer used to access the mapped region. |
| CardMapWindowPhysical | This function maps a PC Card window to its parent bus physical address. |
| CardModifyConfiguration | This function modifies information within the fAttributes parameter, as specified by the CARD_CONFIG_INFO structure. |
| CardModifyWindow | This function changes the attributes of a memory window opened by the CardRequestWindow function. Because CardModifyWindow has unintended side effects, it should not be used. To modify a window, release it and request a new window with the desired attributes. |
| CardRegisterClient | This function registers a callback function that is called by card services when a specified socket event occurs. The callback function notifies the driver of the event, such as card insertion, so that the driver can take the appropriate action. |
| CardReleaseConfiguration | This function places the selected socket and card into a memory-only interface, which is the default mode. |
| CardReleaseExclusive | This function releases exclusive access to a socket and function pair. |
| CardReleaseIRQ | This function stops notification of interrupts on the specified socket and function pair. |
| CardReleaseWindow | This function releases a memory or I/O window allocated by the CardRequestWindow function. |
| CardRequestConfigRegisterPhAddr | This function supports the legacy PCMCIA driver. This driver requires installable interrupt service routine (ISR) support. The installable ISR uses the configuration and status register to identify an interrupt source. |
| CardRequestConfiguration | This function sets socket attributes, interface type, voltage, and registers, as specified by the CARD_CONFIG_INFO structure. |
| CardRequestDisable | This function powers off a PC Card. After the card has been powered off, it can no longer function until the card is ejected and reinserted. |
| CardRequestExclusive | This function requests exclusive access to a specified socket and function pair. |
| CardRequestIRQLine | This function retrieves the interrupt request (IRQ) line that is routed to the CPU by the bridge controller. |
| CardRequestWindow | This function allocates a window within system memory used to access PC Card memory or I/O space. The window must be mapped by the CardMapWindow function before the window can access the PC Card |
| CardResetFunction | This function resets a specified PC card function in a specified socket. |
| CardSetEventMask | This function sets either the driver's global event mask, set initially by the CardRegisterClient function, or an event mask for a specified socket and function pair as specified in the CARD_EVENT_MASK_PARMS structure |
| CS_SocketCallback | This callback function notifies PC Card services of a status change. It is used by the socket driver. |
| EnumCard | This function allows a card that has been attached to PC Card services to be enumerated. |
| EnumSocket | This function allows attached sockets in PC Card services to be enumerated. |
| GetSocketIndex | This function maps a card and a socket to each other. |
| GetSocketStatus | This function retrives socket status. |
