SYSTEM FUNCTIONS of OS Kolibri 0.5.8.1
SYSTEM FUNCTIONS of OS Kolibri 0.6.0.0
 
Number of the function is located in the register eax.
The call of the system function is executed by "int 0x40" command.

============ Function 19 - start application from ramdisk. ===========
======================================================================
Parameters:
* eax = 19 - function number
* ebx = pointer to the application name in format similar
to function 6
* ecx = 0 or ecx = pointer to command line parameters
Returned value:
* If eax > 0, then eax contains PID of the created process
* If eax < 0, then -eax - file system error code
Remarks:
* This function is obsolete; use subfunction 7 of function 70.
* Command line must be terminated by the character with the code 0
(ASCIIZ-string); function takes into account either all characters
up to terminating zero inclusively or first 256 character
regarding what is less.

======================================================================
 
2897,7 → 2879,6
* subfunction 5 - rename/move file/folder
* subfunction 8 - LBA-read from device
* subfunction 15 - get file system information
* subfunction 16 - start application

=========== Function 58, subfunction 0 - read file/folder. ===========

========== Function 58, subfunction 16 - start application. ==========
======================================================================
Parameters:
* eax = 58 - function number
* ebx = pointer to the information structure
Format of the information structure:
* +0: dword: 16 = subfunction number
* +4: dword: flags:
* bit 0: start the process as debugged
* other bits are reserved and must be cleared
* +8: dword: 0 or pointer to ASCIIZ-string with parameters
* +12 = +0xC: dword: ignored
* +16 = +0x10: dword: pointer to buffer for system operations
(4096 bytes)
* +20 = +0x14: ASCIIZ-name of file, the rules of names forming are
given in the general description
Returned value:
* eax > 0 - the program is loaded, eax contains PID
* eax < 0 - an error has occured, -eax contains
file system error code
Remarks:
* This function is obsolete, use subfunction 7 of function 70.
* Command line must be terminated by character with code 0
(ASCIIZ-string); function takes into account either all characters
up to terminating null inclusively or the first 256 charachters
depending on what is less.
* If the process is started as debugged, it is created in
the suspended state; to run use subfunction 5 of function 69.
