Brief

QUERY GENERIC IOCTL CAPABILITY (DRIVE)

Family API

Input

AX = 4411h
BL = drive number
CH = category code (see #01558)
CL = function code (see #01559)

Return

CF clear if successful
AX = 0000h	specified IOCTL function is supported
CF set on error
AL = 01h	IOCTL capability not available

Macro

Notes

a program which wishes to use Generic IOCTL calls beyond those in the standard DOS 3.2 set may use this call first to see whether a particular call is supported
