the implementation. | |

BACKGROUND | |
The IASIO interface declared in the Steinberg ASIO 2 SDK declares | |
functions with no explicit calling convention. This causes MSVC++ to default | |
to using the thiscall convention, which is a proprietary convention not | |
implemented by some non-microsoft compilers - notably borland BCC, | |
C++Builder, and gcc. MSVC++ is the defacto standard compiler used by | |
Steinberg. As a result of this situation, the ASIO sdk will compile with | |
any compiler, however attempting to execute the compiled code will cause a | |
crash due to different default calling conventions on non-Microsoft | |
compilers. | |
IASIOThiscallResolver solves the problem by providing an adapter class that | |
delegates to the IASIO interface using the correct calling convention | |
(thiscall). Due to the lack of support for thiscall in the Borland and GCC | |
compilers, the calls have been implemented in assembly language. | |
A number of macros are defined for thiscall function calls with different | |
numbers of parameters, with and without return values - it may be possible | |
to modify the format of these macros to make them work with other inline | |
assemblers. | |
THISCALL DEFINITION | |
A number of definitions of the thiscall calling convention are floating | |
around the internet. The following definition has been validated against | |
output from the MSVC++ compiler: | |
For non-vararg functions, thiscall works as follows: the object (this) | |
pointer is passed in ECX. All arguments are passed on the stack in | |
right to left order. The return value is placed in EAX. The callee | |
clears the passed arguments from the stack. | |
FINDING FUNCTION POINTERS FROM AN IASIO POINTER | |
The first field of a COM object is a pointer to its vtble. Thus a pointer | |
to an object implementing the IASIO interface also points to a pointer to | |
that object's vtbl. The vtble is a table of function pointers for all of | |
the virtual functions exposed by the implemented interfaces. | |
If we consider a variable declared as a pointer to IASO: | |
IASIO *theAsioDriver | |
theAsioDriver points to: | |
object implementing IASIO | |
{ | |
IASIOvtbl *vtbl | |
other data | |
} | |
in other words, theAsioDriver points to a pointer to an IASIOvtbl | |
vtbl points to a table of function pointers: | |
IASIOvtbl ( interface IASIO : public IUnknown ) | |
{ | |
(IUnknown functions) | |
0 virtual HRESULT STDMETHODCALLTYPE (*QueryInterface)(REFIID riid, void **ppv) = 0; | |
4 virtual ULONG STDMETHODCALLTYPE (*AddRef)() = 0; | |
8 virtual ULONG STDMETHODCALLTYPE (*Release)() = 0; | |
(IASIO functions) | |
12 virtual ASIOBool (*init)(void *sysHandle) = 0; | |
16 virtual void (*getDriverName)(char *name) = 0; | |
20 virtual long (*getDriverVersion)() = 0; | |
24 virtual void (*getErrorMessage)(char *string) = 0; | |
28 virtual ASIOError (*start)() = 0; | |
32 virtual ASIOError (*stop)() = 0; | |
36 virtual ASIOError (*getChannels)(long *numInputChannels, long *numOutputChannels) = 0; | |
40 virtual ASIOError (*getLatencies)(long *inputLatency, long *outputLatency) = 0; | |
44 virtual ASIOError (*getBufferSize)(long *minSize, long *maxSize, | |
long *preferredSize, long *granularity) = 0; | |
48 virtual ASIOError (*canSampleRate)(ASIOSampleRate sampleRate) = 0; | |
52 virtual ASIOError (*getSampleRate)(ASIOSampleRate *sampleRate) = 0; | |
56 virtual ASIOError (*setSampleRate)(ASIOSampleRate sampleRate) = 0; | |
60 virtual ASIOError (*getClockSources)(ASIOClockSource *clocks, long *numSources) = 0; | |
64 virtual ASIOError (*setClockSource)(long reference) = 0; | |
68 virtual ASIOError (*getSamplePosition)(ASIOSamples *sPos, ASIOTimeStamp *tStamp) = 0; | |
72 virtual ASIOError (*getChannelInfo)(ASIOChannelInfo *info) = 0; | |
76 virtual ASIOError (*createBuffers)(ASIOBufferInfo *bufferInfos, long numChannels, | |
long bufferSize, ASIOCallbacks *callbacks) = 0; | |
80 virtual ASIOError (*disposeBuffers)() = 0; | |
84 virtual ASIOError (*controlPanel)() = 0; | |
88 virtual ASIOError (*future)(long selector,void *opt) = 0; | |
92 virtual ASIOError (*outputReady)() = 0; | |
}; | |
The numbers in the left column show the byte offset of each function ptr | |
from the beginning of the vtbl. These numbers are used in the code below | |
to select different functions. | |
In order to find the address of a particular function, theAsioDriver | |
must first be dereferenced to find the value of the vtbl pointer: | |
mov eax, theAsioDriver | |
mov edx, [theAsioDriver] // edx now points to vtbl[0] | |
Then an offset must be added to the vtbl pointer to select a | |
particular function, for example vtbl+44 points to the slot containing | |
a pointer to the getBufferSize function. | |
Finally vtbl+x must be dereferenced to obtain the value of the function | |
pointer stored in that address: | |
call [edx+44] // call the function pointed to by | |
// the value in the getBufferSize field of the vtbl | |
SEE ALSO | |
Martin Fay's OpenASIO DLL at http://www.martinfay.com solves the same | |
problem by providing a new COM interface which wraps IASIO with an | |
interface that uses portable calling conventions. OpenASIO must be compiled | |
with MSVC, and requires that you ship the OpenASIO DLL with your | |
application. | |
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS | |
Ross Bencina: worked out the thiscall details above, wrote the original | |
Borland asm macros, and a patch for asio.cpp (which is no longer needed). | |
Thanks to Martin Fay for introducing me to the issues discussed here, | |
and to Rene G. Ceballos for assisting with asm dumps from MSVC++. | |
Antti Silvast: converted the original calliasio to work with gcc and NASM | |
by implementing the asm code in a separate file. | |
Fraser Adams: modified the original calliasio containing the Borland inline | |
asm to add inline asm for gcc i.e. Intel syntax for Borland and AT&T syntax | |
for gcc. This seems a neater approach for gcc than to have a separate .asm | |
file and it means that we only need one version of the thiscall patch. | |
Fraser Adams: rewrote the original calliasio patch in the form of the | |
IASIOThiscallResolver class in order to avoid modifications to files from | |
the Steinberg SDK, which may have had potential licence issues. | |
Andrew Baldwin: contributed fixes for compatibility problems with more | |
recent versions of the gcc assembler. | |
