@file hcr.h
Kernel side client API for Hardware Configuration Repository (HCR). 
The HCR service provides access to hardware settings defined for the base port. 
This API is used by kernel side components such as PDDs, hardware service 
providers and other kernel extensions.

/**
The HCR namespace contains all the types and APIs that make up the
client API of the Kernel Hardware Configuration Repository (HCR).
It provides accessor functions to retrieve settings held by the HCR and may be 
called by kernel components from with in thread context. 

The _published_ Setting IDs available for use with this API can be found
in the BSP exported header 'hcrconfig.h'. This provides the top-level header
that clients can include to gain access to all IDs for the BSP. IDs for settings
that are internal to a component and not used by others are defined in a file
private to that component.

The HCR supports a number of setting repositories and searches them in a defined
order, always returns the first setting found matching the ID or criteria.
This allows setting values to be overriden by more recent repositories created
during platform development and product creation.

	This search method allows categories to contain structured settings 
	i.e. row/column structured or record based categories as might be used
	for configuration data of a hardware service provider.
        
    The caller supplies the category to search, a setting key ID mask and the 
    pattern to match. Setting keys that satisfy this logic are returned:
    ((elementID & aElementMask) == (aPattern & aElementMask))
    
    For example, a set of driver capability structures might be encoded into
    an element ID where the 24 MSb are the row/record number and the 8 LSb 
    are the column/field index. Thus to retrieve all fields in row 2 supply: 
        aElemMask = 0xffffff00, aPattern = 0x000002** 
    to retrieve key fields of all records supply:
        aElemMask = 0x000000ff, aPattern = 0x******01
    (* = dont care)
    
   	On successful return the client will need to check the number found (return
	value) matches the expected number. When there are more defined in
	the category than was able to be returned, i.e. when number found 
	exceeded aMaxNum then aMaxNum is returned.
	
   	When an overall error is returned from the function the output arrays have 
	undefined values.
   
    @param aCat      in: The category to retrieve settings for
    @param aMaxNum   in: The maximum number of settings to retrieve. It is also 
                         the size of the arrays in the following arguments   
    @param aMask     in: The bits in the Element ID to be checked against 
                         aPattern
    @param aPattern  in: Identified the bits that must be set for a 
                         setting to be returned in the search
    @param aKeyIds   inout: Client supplied array populated on exit. Large
						    enough to hold aMaxNum element ids.
    @param aTypes	 inout: Client supplied array populated with setting types 
						    enumerations on exit. Array address may be 0 if 
                            client is not interested.
    @param aLens  	 inout: Client supplied array populated with setting lengths
						    on exit for those settings with a type > 0x0000ffff. 
							When less than this 0 is set in the aLens array element. 
							Array address may be 0 if client is not interested.
    
	@return	Zero or positive number of settings found in category, -ve on error
            KErrArgument if some parameters are wrong(i.e. aErrors is a null
                            pointer, aNum is negative and so on) 
            KErrNotReady if the HCR is used before it has been initialised
            KErrCorrupt  if HCR finds a repository to be corrupt
            KErrGeneral  if an internal failure occurs, see trace
            KErrNoMemory if the memory allocation within this function failed
            Otherwise one of the other system-wide error codes.
