    - How to Port Inline Assembly code to AMD64 Hi, Can anyone tell me How to port the inline assembly code to AMD64?? I have a 32-bit C++ Library where inline assembly code has been used. On MSDN I have found that Intrinsic functions are to be used. So, can anyone help me How to change simple inline assembly code using intrinsic functions. Can I use the same code(with intrinsic functions )on 32-bit machine too.?? If not then How can I have the same code base with inline assembly code which can run on 32-bit as well as on AMD64. thanx manoj Tag: Debug Language monitor Tag: 60708

    - Install USB filter driver? Hi friends! I'm a newbie to driver development and I have a rather simple question for you I guess. I want to make a USB filter that just log what device is atached to the port. I have compiled the files that came with WINDDK in the folder src\wdm\usb\filter. My question is: How do I install the driver? Do I need to define a .INF file? If I have to define a .INF file what should it contain if I don't have a specific device?

    - relation of SRBs and StreamClassStreamNotification function Hi all, In my pc camera driver, there must be a SRB_READ_DATA command function, such as "VideoReadData" named, to receive images captured from digital camera into SRB data buffer. This will make a pc camera preview function on PC. At VideoReadData function, I use the ExInterlockedInsertTailList API function to queue each incoming SRB. But I find that it must be after calling StreamClassStreamNotification, a new SRB is still passed into VideoReadData function. This will make SRB queue nonsense because there is only one SRB in the queue at a time. Is there any method or setting to queue more incoming SRBs at a time? Sample code as followings, typedef struct { LIST_ENTRY ListEntry; PHW_STREAM_REQUEST_BLOCK pSrb; ULONGLONG FrameNumber; } *P_SRB_EXTENSION; typedef struct { LIST_ENTRY PendingIoList; KSPIN_LOCK PendingIoListSpin; LIST_ENTRY CompletedReadSrbList; KSPIN_LOCK DispatchSpinLock; }*P_DEVICE_EXTENSION; int VideoReadData(PHW_STREAM_REQUEST_BLOCK pSrb) { P_DEVICE_EXTENSION pDevExt = (PS_PA_DEVICE_EXTENSION) pSrb->HwDeviceExtension; P_SRB_EXTENSION pSrbEx = (PS_PA_SRB_EXTENSION)pSrb->SRBExtension; ExInterlockedInsertTailList( &(pDevExt->PendingIoList), &(pSrbEx->ListEntry), &pDevExt->PendingIoListSpin); { //actions to fill in SRB data buffer ... ... ... } StreamNotification(pSrb,StreamRequestComplete); return 0; } Regards, Allen Tag: Debug Language monitor Tag: 60701

    - WDM to WinCE porting Hi All, I have to port a WDM video capture driver to WinCE ...As you know WDM has got a stream class driver which will communicate to the undrlying miniport driver like tuner,decoder and crossbar...the problem i am facing is that WinCE doesnt have a video stream class driver and architectuers are also completely different ..here no irp's ,no dpc's ,even most of the API's used in WinCE is obsolete in WDM ...Is it advisable to try to make my own device specific IOCTL's,since i cannot go for the WDM specified IOCTL's ....or should i contact the chip manufacturer to get those IOCTL's...does anyone have any previous experience of porting WDM to WinCE....... i am at complete loss ......Any sort of useful suggestions higly appreciated ...dont tell me to ask in Platbuilder group ..i have tried several times but not much i got from there..

    - problem with 2 device objects Iam writing a serial port filter driver.I have 2 device objects,the extra device object is to track the IOCTLS from user mode application (as given in DDK docs) and can get the data from application. I stored the data from app in a global variable and tried to access it in my driver dispatch routines.But ended up getting DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL error.I tried by declaring the global variable in DEVICE EXTENSION,but then the variable data is not getting updated. Can anyone point me in right direction? Thanks. -Robert Tag: Debug Language monitor Tag: 60696

    - System failed to go to hibernate with device support "USB select suspend function ". All, I have implement USB select suspend function for my USB camera. When our camera goes in to suspend on some notebook, the XP system will hang on "Prepare to Hibernae..." . In my minidriver side, I just can not get any of IRPs about change the power state, and I just can not get chance to cancel the IOCTL_INTERNAL_USB_SUBMIT_IDLE_NOTIFICATION irp. And system just failed to hibernate. My question: Before XP system goes into suspend, it will try to cancel the pending IRPs, but why the system failed to cancel the IDLE irp? Does anybody have the same problem to support USB select suspend function? Thanks. Tag: Debug Language monitor Tag: 60695

    - How to print strikeout line in EXCEL 2003. In my printer driver, strikeout line is printed in WORD 2003. But strikeout line is not printed correcltly in EXCEL 2003 with the same IFIMETRICS. (strikeout line is printed too lower) condition : device font - send the Font metrics to the printer. excel Printing process : DrvQueryFontData -> DrvTextOut -> DrvBitBlt(actually draw the strikeout line) Same problem occured though I changed the fwdStrikeoutPosition of IFIMETRICS structure. So I think there is the different method to print strikeout lien between WORD and EXCEL. If you know, let me know.. Tag: Debug Language monitor Tag: 60690

    - Pnpdtest fails USB device with verifier low-resource simulation I'm working on a driver for a USB device based on the Cypress FX2 chip for WinXP Pro. The driver is based largely on the bulkusb example in the DDK (W2k3 version). In the course of testing, I turned on Driver Verifier not only for my (function) driver, but for the bus driver (usbhub.sys) (maybe that was my first mistake...). When running the pnpdtest.exe stress test option, with low-resource simulation turned on, I get a lot of WDM driver errors, code-coverage breakpoints, and even bug checks (0xC9, code 0x21E) in usbhub.sys (but none in my driver). Call this Case 1. If verifier is OFF for usbhub.sys, the only problem is that at some point my driver will fail, for example, in DriverEntry (cannot allocate memory to store the registry string), and pnpdtest will try in vain to connect. But no bug checks. After the test is terminated, the device can be unplugged and replugged, and things start up agin ok. Call this Case 2. If low-resource simulation is off, everything is perfect, even if usbhub.sys is verified too. Call this Case 3. Any ideas what is going on? Do I need to worry about this, or can I just turn off the extra verifier settings (like Case 3) and proceed? Thanks in advance! A sample debug session output for case 1 follows (Tecusb.SYS is my driver): ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Tecusb.SYS: exit Tecusb_ConfigureDevice (0) PNPFILTR: Completing Start request with status == 0x2 PDO = 0x82f2b648 PNPFILTR: Received IRP_MN_QUERY_PNP_DEVICE_STATE for stack with PDO 0x82f2b648 PNPFILTR: Completing IRP_MN_QUERY_PNP_DEVICE_STATE for PDO 0x82f2b648 with status 0x0 and information 0x0 PNPFILTR: Passing down unhandled POWER IRP - minor function = 0xff PNPFILTR: Passing down unhandled PNP IRP - minor function = 0xff PNPFILTR: Received IRP_MN_QUERY_REMOVE_DEVICE for stack with PDO 0x82f2b648 PNPFILTR: FilterQueryRemove returning 0x4 for stack with PDO 0x82f2b648 PNPFILTR: Received IRP_MN_REMOVE_DEVICE for stack with PDO 0x82f2b648 'xMP.SYS: port[1] disable (1) 1005 PNPFILTR: FilterRemove returning 0x4 for stack with PDO 0x82f2b648 USBH: Code coverage trap d:\xpsprtm\drivers\wdm\usb\driver\hub.pnp\usbhub.c line: 6095 Break instruction exception - code 80000003 (first chance) nt!DbgBreakPoint: 80aba260 cc int 3 kd> ******************************************************************************* * * This is the string you add to your checkin description * Driver Verifier: Enabled for tecsa.sys on Build 2600 XPKRxPSwxwFS0kpto2QjwD ******************************************************************************* \Driver\TecusbSA running with DDK+ enabled PNPFILTR: Received IRP_MN_START_DEVICE for stack with PDO 0x82f2b648 'xMP.SYS: port[1] reset (1) 1101 'xMP.SYS: port[1] reset (3) 1005 'xMP.SYS: port[1] reset (4) 1005 USBHUB.SYS: 'port 1 failed to reset --> retry USBHUB.SYS: 'device still present -- retry reset 'xMP.SYS: port[1] reset (1) 1101 {snip} USBHUB.SYS: '-->device removed during reset USBHUB.SYS: 'Warning: device/port reset failed USBHUB: Warning ************************************************************** USB device failed first reset attempt in USBH_RestoreDevice ****************************************************************************** 'xMP.SYS: port[1] reset (1) 1101 'xMP.SYS: port[1] reset (3) 1005 {snip} 'xMP.SYS: port[1] reset (4) 1005 USBHUB.SYS: 'port 1 failed to reset --> retry USBHUB: Warning ************************************************************** Port RESET timed out --> this is bad ****************************************************************************** USBHUB.SYS: 'Warning: device/port reset failed 'xMP.SYS: port[1] reset (1) 1101 {snip} USBHUB.SYS: 'Warning: device/port reset failed USBHUB.SYS: 'Warning: device/port restore failed PNPFILTR: Completing Start request with status == 0xc000009a PDO = 0x82f2b648 PNPFILTR: Received IRP_MN_REMOVE_DEVICE for stack with PDO 0x82f2b648 PNPFILTR: FilterRemove returning 0x4 for stack with PDO 0x82f2b648 *********************************************************************** * THIS VALIDATION BUG IS FATAL AND WILL CAUSE THE VERIFIER TO HALT * * WINDOWS (BUGCHECK) WHEN THE MACHINE IS NOT UNDER A KERNEL DEBUGGER! * *********************************************************************** WDM DRIVER ERROR: [usbhub.sys @ 0xF73A593E] An IRP dispatch handler has not properly deleted it's device object upon receiving a remove IRP.

    - Getting float values for mouse cursor position Hi, I use the windows mouse pointer position to control the position of an object in my own application. I use GetCursorPos to get the position of the pointer on the screen so I get integer values between 0 and the screen resolution. For a resolution of 1600x1200, I can only get 1600 possible values for x, which is not sufficient for my application. I'm wondering if there is any way to get subpixels values, i.e. Is-it possible to get true float values for the mouse pointer position? (By reducing the mouse sensitivity to the minimum, it's possible to move the mouse a few millimeters before moving by one pixel) Another solution would be to get raw data from the mouse but I'm looking for an easier way to do the trick. I also want to try different input devices so I prefer to avoid this solution. Sincerely. Géry Casiez Tag: Debug Language monitor Tag: 60671

    - minidriver for HIDClass Hi. I'm trying to make a virtual USB HID Keyboard through HIDClass. I'm working out from Walter Oneys HIDFAKE minidriver example. The thing I'm trying to make work is installing the driver, so windows register it as a HID usb keyboard. When the PNP dispatch function in the minidriver gets called, and asks for BusQueryDeviceID, i return USB\\VID_045E&PID_000B. My .inf file looks as follows (the important bits presentet only): ; Fake HID Keyboard [Version] Signature=$Windows NT$ Class=HIDClass ClassGuid={745A17A0-74D3-11D0-B6FE-00A0C90F57DA} DriverVer=03/17/2005,1.000 CatalogFile=DummyCat.cat Provider=Test ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ; Standard INF sections ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [Manufacturer] %MFGNAME%=DeviceList [DestinationDirs] DefaultDestDir=10,System32\Drivers [SourceDisksFiles] hidfake.sys=1,objchk~1\i386, wdmstub.sys=1,..\..\..\Append~1\newstub\objchk~1\i386, generic.sys=1,..\..\..\generic\objchk~1\i386, generic.sys=1 [SourceDisksNames] 1=%INSTDISK%,,, [DeviceList] %DESCRIPTION%=DriverInstall,USB\VID_045E&PID_000B,HID_DEVICE_SYSTEM_KEYBOARD ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ; Windows 2000+ Sections ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [DriverInstall.ntx86] CopyFiles=DriverCopyFiles [DriverCopyFiles] hidfake.sys,,,2 generic.sys,,,2 [DriverInstall.ntx86.Services] AddService=FakeKeyboard,2,DriverService [DriverService] ServiceType=1 StartType=3 ErrorControl=1 ServiceBinary=%10%\system32\drivers\hidfake.sys ... If I try to install the driver through the hardware wizard, it tells me that the the inf file contains no information about my hardware. I know it's because of the ClassGuid, but howcome? And I know I'm doing something else wrong as well.. I would like the kbhid.sys to work as the client hid driver(windows standard hid keyboard driver), and I have this driver working as the minidriver alright. How do I accomplish to do that? (I of course use a standard keyboard ReportDescriptor, if you might wonder about that) Thanks in advance! /Kim P. Tag: Debug Language monitor Tag: 60661

    - Question about plug and play drivers Hi, When I install for example NDIS intermediate driver for debugging purposes, when I need exchange it for new build, uninstalling and installing again is not sufficient. I must uninstall it, restart machine, and install driver again. It seems that once driver is loaded it remains in memory (or some resources reamins) and unloading needs restart. I think that this behaviour is related to plug-and-play feature in W2K and up, but W2K are plug-and-play (or not absolutely ? ) ? Can be driver 100% unloaded without restarting machine ?

    - Best way to acess to the parallel port Hi! First,let me explain the situation : I have a special device that is connected to the parallel port(Using ECP or EPP) and I need to communicate with,use DMA(PC to the device) and IRQ under Windows 2000/XP. For the moment, I have successfully used some I/O drivers to access directly to the port(PortTalk,DLPortIO...),but it seems to be in a dirty way(and I am not sure that I can use DMA),as these drivers are using some undocumented functions to LOCK/UNLOCK ressources,overriding the parport.sys driver. For the moment,I am quite confused,because I don't know what is the best way to access to the parallel port. Must I write an UpperFilter driver for parport.sys that handle some custom IOCTLs? Must I write a parallel port class driver(Like parclass)? Or,can I just lock ressources when I use the application,as it is going to be the only one that access to the parallel port,when loaded? I also heard that if It's also possible to remove parport.sys and to replace it with a "home made" driver,but I am not interested by this case cause I want to keep the parallel port working normally with other applications. Thank you in advance and sorry for my bad english. Nassim. Tag: Debug Language monitor Tag: 60650

    - USB Driver problem with PTE (bugcheck 3f) We have deployed a wdm usb printer driver to a customer site. After 22-26 hours of idling, the application crashes, leaving a dump file naming the driver as the culprit and with a bugcheck id of 3f. This means that the system has run out of PTEs(page table entries) and is unable to proceed. What is puzzling is that the driver uses only allocations from the nonpaged pool. Running pooltag on a local test system (not the customer system) shows, in the nonpaged pool, no memory leaks from the driver. There is a possibility that the driver, over time, fragments the nonpaged pool, but it doesn't seem right that the system PTEs should be affected. Do, in fact, allocations from the nonpaged pool affect PTEs? If not, what other scenarios seem possible? Besides pooltag.exe and DriverVerifier, are there other programs that might be useful in diagnosing this problem? Thanks RH Tag: Debug Language monitor Tag: 60648

    - Using DDK with previous version of VC Ok, I read the release notes for the Win2k3 DDK, and it claims that DDK examples should not be compiled on a previous version of the compiler than what the DDK was written for. However it also says that for Win98/ME drivers there are cases where the driver MUST be compiled using VC6, because a later compiler simply will fail. Does this mean that in order to compile drivers at all you must use the version of the compiler that the DDK is written in? Can I build a driver for 2K or XP using VC6 and the Win2K3 DDK?

    - Winlog screen displayed I need to know when the Winlogon screen is displayed. I want this as it is at this point that my app is going to know that all services are up and running. Winlogon Notification will only send an event after a user logs in and I need to know that we are ready to accept a user to log in. If a user is not going to login to this machine by using the Winlogon Notification I will never know that we are in a run state according to my app. The event before this is Startup and this is too early in the boot process for me to say we are ready to go. Do any of you know how I can tell that the logon screen is there? Is there a service that I can check that will start right about the time of the logon screen?

    - Isoch Read/Write with loopback (newbie) I am developing a driver for ISP1582/1583 for very high speed application ( ~200M). I build my driver based on isousb from WinDDK 2k3. My platform is WinXP Sp2. Now, the PC recognizes my board, but when I try using the testing application from isousb to read/write, it does not work. It seems that the testing application from DDK uses the name PIPE04 and PIPE05 directly to open the handle to the pipe. Is there any other way to overcome this problem ? I tried using the simple way, which is open a handle to the device using GUID with CreateFile(), then using ReadFile() and WriteFile() but that fails as well, GetLastError() return 22 - ERROR_BAD_COMMAND [The device does not recognize the command.] I will have to write a loopback mode application as well. The loopback will only depend on user-mode application. Am I right ? Pls enlighten me on this part. Thanks a lot ! Tag: Debug Language monitor Tag: 60563

I installed and uninstalled the MUX 2-3 times and they are appearing as MUX Sample Driver # 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 etc. But I can actually set the OID_GEN_VLAN_ID in only 1 of them using NDISUIO. Pls Explain ?? What I meas is that why doesnt NDISUIO protocol binds to all Virtual Miniport Drivers(IM) but only one of them ?? Can I enumerate all the Virtual Network Adapters that the MUX creates ? TIA Regards Tarun Tag: Debug Language monitor Tag: 60549

    - Multiple monitor video What APIs are available to query and/or manipulate the multi-monitor support in WinXP? Specifically, I want to be able to determine if multiple screens are configured, and toggle on/off screens other than the primary. The second can be achieved through the UI by going into the Display Properties applet, choosing the settings tab, right clicking the second (or other) screen, choosing "Attached", then clicking OK. I'm hoping there's a straightforward way to do that simple action programmatically. Erik J Sawyer Appro Systems Tag: Debug Language monitor Tag: 60546

    - Who will free Irp from IoBuildDeviceIoControlRequest? From MSDN DDK document, IRPs created using IoBuildDeviceIoControlRequest must be completed by calling IoCompleteRequest and not by merely deallocating the IRP with IoFreeIrp. IoBuildDeviceIoControlRequest queues the IRPs it creates in the IRP queue of the current thread. Freeing these IRPs without completing them might result in a system crash when the thread terminates as the thread attempts to deallocate the IRP's memory. However, from DDK examples and likes from other sources, I didn't see any FreeIrp or CompleteIrp for this reason. Seems to me the IRP is not freed anywhere through the code. Who frees this IRP?

    - COM port application snooping I have a few devices that connect to PC using COM ports. I want to develop a protocol. Application will open the COM port(non-exclusive access) and send a protocol message. When it receives proper response(if at all) application knew the device and continues to talk. If the data is not expected response, may be this COM port is in use by some other application. So how can I snoop data and take it if it for my application and 'not capture' it if it is not for my application. I am not sure if I can achive it at user level itself. Do I need to dig into driver level. Is upper filter driver needed on all COM ports? Please give guidance on how I can accomplish this simple(for my boss), but not so simple. People who worked on embedded devices think COM port is piece of cake, but dont believe PC side complexities. Atleast educate me complexity here. I saw posts on virtual COM ports, but here I am not looking for any virtual COM ports, only existing ports. May be this snooping is needed on virtual COM also because from PC application all are same, but I dont need to develop any virtual ports. Thanks, Raj Tag: Debug Language monitor Tag: 60517

TDI will build the UDP packet for me. Now I'd like to build the packet myself. Is it possible that I can pass the constructed UDP packet to TDI, just ask TDI to send it?

    - Trying to send multiple small IRPs -- thread hangs? I have a problem with my driver which is a disk filter. I have to break up read/write requests into multiple smaller requests to send to the disk driver. IoMakeAssociatedIrp() is exactly what I need, but the DDK states that IoMakeAssociatedIrp() can only be used by the top-most driver (FSDs). Heeding the DDK's warning, I have instead written code that calls IoBuildSynchronousFsdRequest() to build an IRP to be sent synchronously to the disk driver. The code is essentially copied verbatim from the DDK samples: KEVENT ke; PIRP Irp; KeInitializeEvent(&ke, NotificationEvent, FALSE); Irp = IoBuildSynchronousFsdRequest(...); stat = IoCallDriver(NextDevice, Irp); if (stat == STATUS_PENDING) KeWaitForSingleObject(&ke, Executive, KernelMode, FALSE, NULL); For some reason all threads that go down this code path end up hanging in IoCancelIrp() when they try to terminate. My event gets set to indicate that the IRP has completed, but the IRP is still queued to the thread. Since the kernel does not BSOD, I presume IoFreeIrp() isn't actually called. My question is two-fold: 1) Is there any reason why IoMakeAssociatedIrp() wouldn't work? I don't see any intrinsic reason for the DDK's stern warning against using this in a lower-level driver. 2) If IoMakeAssociatedIrp() is out of the question, why is my driver causing threads to hang?

Hi,
I made my own language monitor. I put some DebugBreak in my code to debug
my monitor. When I print with Microsoft Word, The process stop well at my
breakpoint, but I try to make a test application and it seems that my
language monitor is not loaded by the spooler because the process don't
stop.
My code is like that:
OpenPrinter
StartDocPrinter
StartPagePrinter
WritePrinter
EndPagePrinter
EndDocPrinter
ClosePrinter.

What's happen ?
