Module 3. Formatting single density discs
-----------------------------------------

      +----------------------------------------------------------+
      | All the DFS modules in  this  series  use programs which |
      | experiment  with the format and contents of discs. These |
      | experiments may  have disasterous effects if you use any |
      | of the programs  on  discs  which store programs or data |
      | which you cannot afford to lose.  You  should  first try |
      | out  the  programs  using  discs  that  have either been |
      | duplicated or, better still, have not been used at all.  |
      +----------------------------------------------------------+


Writing your own disc formatting program can be quite a useful exercise
because it will give you the opportunity to optimise the speed at which
data can be written to and read from a disc. You might think that all disc
formatting programs are the same but, if you do, then you are quite wrong.

The time taken to write to and read from a disc is affected by the
settings on the keyboard DIL switches and the logical sector offsets
created during formatting. If you have a DIL switch block on your keyboard
you might like to experiment with the settings to increase the performance
of your disc drives.

Figure 1 shows the effect of switching links 3 and 4 on the keyboard DIL
switch block, but do remember that some disc drive manuals specify the
settings to be used and these should not be altered. If you do not have a
switch block fitted on you keyboard the effect of using these switches can
be simulated using Osbyte &FF. Osbyte &FF takes effect after a soft Break
and remains active until a hard Break. All but the slowest disc drives can
be operated with link 3 open (off) and link 4 closed (on) and many modern
disc drives can be used with both links 3 and 4 closed (on). If the
settings for links 3 and 4 have not been specified for your disc drive you
should experiment and use the fastest reliable speed.

The Acorn DFS uses discs with either 40 or 80 tracks and with 10 sectors
of 256 bytes per track. The physical and logical track numbers must be the
same so that, for example, the ten ID fields on track &01 must all use
logical track number &01. The 10 sectors on each track must use the
logical sector numbers &00 to &09 but the logical and physical sector
numbers do not have to be the same.

Logical sectors &00 and &01 on physical track &00 store the disc
catalogue. The catalogue uses the structure shown in figure 2 and an empty
catalogue must be created by the disc formatting program.


Sector &00 Track &00
--------------------

&00 - &07  First 8 bytes of the 12 byte disc title.
&08 - &0E  First file name.
&0F        Directory of first file name.
&10 - &16  Second file name.
&17        Directory of second file name.
&18 - &FF  and so on for the 31 files.

Sector &01 Track &00
--------------------

&00 - &03  Last 4 bytes of the 12 byte disc title.
&04        Disc cycles (BCD number 0-99).
&05        8 * (Number of catalogue entries).
&06        (bits 0 and 1) Most significant two bits of the number of
           sectors on the disc.
           (bits 4 and 5) The boot up option set using *OPT4,n.
&07        The least significant 8 bits of the (10 bit) number of sectors
           on the disc. The most significant bits are in bits 0 and 1 of
           byte &06.
&08 - &09  Load address of first file, least significant 16 bits.
&0A - &0B  Execution address of first file, least significant 16 bits.
&0C - &0D  Length of first file, least significant 16 bits.
&0E        (bits 0 and 1) Startsector of first file, most sig. 2 bits.
           (bits 2 and 3) Load address of first file, most sig. 2 bits.
           (bits 4 and 5) Length of first file, most sig. 2 bits.
           (bits 6 and 7) Execution address of first file, most sig. bits.
&0F        Start sector of first file, least significant 8 bits.
&10 - &FF  Load address, execution address, file length, and sector number
           for every other file on the disc (8 bytes per file). This is
           the information given by the *INFO call.


           Figure 2. The structure of the DFS catalogue
           --------------------------------------------


Although there is a lot of information stored in a disc catalogue nearly
all this information is written by the DFS when the disc is being used. An
Acorn single density formatting program must fill the catalogue with null
bytes (&00) with the exception of bytes &06 and &07 of sector &01. These
bytes must store the number of sectors made available on the disc by the
formatting program.

When a single density formatter is used with an eighty track disc drive it
will create &320 sectors on a disc. Bits 0 and 1 of byte &06 on logical
sector &01 must store the number &03 (%11), and byte &07 of logical sector
&01 must store the number &20. When the program is used with a fourty
track disc drive it will create &190 sectors. Bits 0 and 1 of byte &06 on
logical sector &01 must then store the number &01 (%01), and byte &07 of
logical sector &01 must store the number &90. Figure 3 shows a part of a
sector dump made with a newly formatted eighty track disc. The only
information stored in the empty catalogue is the number of available
sectors on the disc.

   ------------------------------------------------------------------


The most efficient operation of an Acorn single density disc occurs if
physical sector &00 does not store logical sector &00 on every track. The
optimum distribution of logical sectors with respect to physical sectors
for most disc drives is shown in figure 4. Figure 4 shows that, on track
&00, the physical and logical sector numbers are the same. On track &01,
physical sector &00 stores logical sector &07, physical sector &01 stores
logical sector &08, and so on. This is known as a logical sector offset.


                        Physical sector numbers
                    
                   | 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09

        Figure 4. The logical sectors numbers for optimum speed
        -------------------------------------------------------


The logical sector numbers are offset because the disc drive head takes a
predictable amount of time to step from one track to the next when writing
to or reading from a disc.

Consider what will happen if you use the *LOAD command to read a file
which is stored in 10 sectors starting with sector &02 on track &00. This
hypothetical file will be stored on logical sectors &02 to &09 on track
&00, and on logical sectors &00 and &01 on track &01. The sectors on track
&00 will be loaded from sector &02 to sector &09 and then the head will
step in to track &01. This step will take a predictable amount of time
which is long enough for most disc drives to miss logical sector &00 if it
is stored on physical sector &00. The disc would then have to make a
complete revolution before sector &00 reappears. Using the offset
illustrated in figure 4 would ensure that, for most disc drives, sector
&00 on track &01 would become immeadiatly available as the head steps in
from track &00 to &01. All the tracks in figure 4 use the same sector
offset with respect to each other to give an optimum distribution of
logical sectors.

Not all disc drives take the same amount of time to step the head from one
track to another and for this reason the amount of offset used to produce
an optimally formated disc will vary from one disc drive to another. The
distribution of logical sectors shown in figure 4 uses an offset of 3
sectors. That is, sector &00 is offset 3 sectors with respect to sector
&09 on the preceding track. A modern fast disc drive might only require an
offset of 2 sectors so that the physical logical sector &00 on track &01
will be logical sector &08. An old disc drive liberated from the local
junk shop might require an offset of 4 or even 5 sectors.

The program OFFSET can be used to experiment with the amount of offset
given to the logical sector numbers. It can format both 40 and 80 track
discs with any offset from 0 to 9 sectors.

To find the amount of offset needed with a particular disc drive you
should create a set of 10 discs with the offset varying from 0 to 9
sectors. Each disc should be used to measure the time taken to store a
very large file a large number of times within a program loop. It is a
good idea to store the same large file 20 or 30 times and to use a stop
watch rather than the computer to measure the time taken. If you start
with an offset of 9 sectors and work down to zero offset you should find
that the time decreases with each disc until, with one disc, there is an
increase in the time taken to store the files. If, for example, the
increase is with a disc using an offset of 2 sectors then an optimum
offset of 3 sectors is needed for your disc drive. Most disc drives need
an offset of 3 sectors.

The logical sector offsets produced by the program OFFSET can be 
demonstrated by using the program IDSDUMP introduced in module 0. The
formatted discs it produces can be verified using any DFS verification
program including the program VERIFY, also intorduced in module 0.
