Compatibility: DPMI 0.9+

Expects: AX    0500H

ES:DI (or ES:EDI) sel:off of 48-byte buffer to receive info

Returns: CF    NC (this fn always succeeds)

ES:DI buffer contains returned info

Info: This obtains information about available physical memory, page

swapping space, etc.

DPMI 1.0 users should use INT 31H 050bH instead.

ES:(E)DI must point to a 48-byte buffer.  On return, it contains:

Offset Size Contents

+0      4  lAvailBytes  largest free block, in bytes

+4      4  lUnlockedPgs pages available if left unlocked

+8      4  lLockedPgs   pages available if locked

+0cH     4  lTotLinPgs   linear address space size, in pages

+10H     4  lTotUnlkPgs  number of unlocked pages

+14H     4  lTotFreePgs  number of free pages

+18H     4  lTotPhysPgs  number of physical pages

+1cH     4  lFreeLinPgs  free linear address space, in pages

+20H     4  lTotSwapPgs  size of page swapping file, in pages

+24H    12  res          (reserved)

48               size of this structure

Notes:   In multi-tasking environments, these values may change at any

time, so they should be considered as "advisory."

  Use INT 31H 0604H to learn the size of the virtual-memory pages

used by the host.

  Only the first field is guaranteed to contain meaningful data.

Other fields may contain -1 (ffffffffH) if the host doesn't

know the true values.
