    - Re-using Irp for Usb I have an IOCTL defined for performing a read of an Interrupt IN endpoint on my USB device. User mode code makes an overlapped call of DeviceIoControl with this IOCTL, and waits (perhaps for a long time) for the result. When the associated Irp shows up in my DispatchDeviceControl function, can I continue to use it without creating a new Irp? Could I just change its major function to IOCTL_INTERNAL_USB_SUBMIT_URB, attach an appropriate URB to it, and pass it down, and forget about it? Will the USBD take care of completion and / or cancellation, or do I have to worry about this, even though I did not create the Irp in the driver. Thanks in advance for the help, Dennis Tag: re: Problem accessing Intel chipset configuration registers Tag: 52061

    - XP SP2 prevents checked kernel execution Since installing SP2 for XP Pro, I can no longer execute a checked build using the /kernel= and /hal= options in the boot.ini file. All attempts to do so results in an error complaining about the system32\drivers\ntfs.sys file being either corrupted or missing. Obviously SP2 must have replaced this driver, and who knows how many others. Bottom line is there a work around? If not, when can we expect to return to running checked kernels for our development or do we simply chuck SP2? Tag: re: Problem accessing Intel chipset configuration registers Tag: 52056

    - SANDISK Geometry via IOCTL_DISK_GET_DRIVE_GEOMETRY_EX I am having difficulty with gathering correct disk geometry values for my PC Card using IOCTL_DISK_GET_DRIVE_GEOMETRY_EX. The card I am using is a 40MB Flash, but it has 64,225,280 bytes capacity. The manufacturer (who I've spoken with) gave me the following values: Cylinders: 490 Heads : 8 Sectors : 32 Doing the C*H*S*512 math gives me the correct # of bytes, as expected. However, the call to IOCTL_DISK_GET_DRIVE_GEOMETRY_EX is returning: Cylinders: 7 Heads : 255 <-- I'm calling tracks/cyl the "heads"..is this wrong? Sectors : 63 This gives me only 57,576,960 bytes! The manufacturer said that that is "just the way Windows is." Hopefully not, because if it is so, I'll have to go "way-low" and attempt direct ATA access via ports. And since I can't readily find a way to get the IDE port the PC Card is using, I will be quite out of luck. Can anyone verify that Windows does in fact report erroneous drive geometry with these cards? Is there a better way to gather this data?

    - High frequency output on parallel port, how? Hi, I want to control stepper motors from XP, this requires me to toggle the parallel port datalines with a frequency ofseveral KHz. I have the givio driver which gives me IO privilege so that I can write and read to the port in usermode. Now I have the problem that the fastest timers in user mode is the multimedia timer which works with 1 millisecond at most. These guys http://www.artofcnc.ca claim that they can get 35 KHz output on the parallel port of a 1 GHz machine running XP, I know that they use a device driver, that's why I ask this question here. How do I accomplish a timer that works with much higher frequencies, does anybody of you kernel programmers know? Bert Tag: re: Problem accessing Intel chipset configuration registers Tag: 52053

    - Problem accessing Intel chipset configuration registers I am writing a driver to access a specific read/write-once register in the Intel ICH chipset configuration space. My test is to set some write-once bits in the register, and then write a clear to those same bits. This clear should silently fail and remain at the first value written. (Verified in linux.) The Intel spec states that the chipset configuration space mapped location is set in the RCBA register. I can verify this also using linux. So my physical memory location should be the address in the RCBA plus any offset to the specific register I want. I looked in the RCBA register to find the physical address of the chipset configuration mapped memory block. Finding this, I then mapped it from a physical into a virtual address using MmMapIoSpace() in the DDK. Below is a snippet of my code, trying to run my tests and then convert the location of that register into a unicode string to print to a system log entry. Am I doing something wrong here? Thanks a bunch for the help, Randy -- begin code snippet -- UNICODE_STRING uniErrorString ; // return string VOID* virtAddr = NULL; // virtual address from MmMapIoSpace ULONG memVal = 0; // value derived from memory mapped register WCHAR addrBuffer[70]; // used to store the converted integer, or error codes PHYSICAL_ADDRESS memAddr2; //ULONG addrSpace = 0x0; //memory, not IO space ULONG oneBit = 0x010001; // for test write 1 ULONG zeroBit = 0x010000; // for test write 2 memAddr2.HighPart = 0x0; // where xxx is replaced by the configuration register I am testing memAddr2.LowPart = 0xFED1Cxxx; // address combined with offset as indicated by RCBA virtAddr = MmMapIoSpace(memAddr2,4,FALSE); if ( virtAddr == NULL ) { memVal = 0x00000002; // error condition goto testDONE; } // should be able to set, and then the one should stay...clear bit should not replace it // first test write *(ULONG*)virtAddr = oneBit; // test read if ( *(ULONG*)virtAddr != oneBit ) { RtlInitUnicodeString(&uniErrorString, L"0x0000000000000005"); // error condition goto testDONE; } // test write, this should fail silently because of write-once bit *(ULONGLONG*)virtAddr = zeroBit; memVal = *(ULONGLONG*)virtAddr; uniErrorString.Length = 0; uniErrorString.MaximumLength = 70; uniErrorString.Buffer = &addrBuffer[0]; // convert value to string if ( STATUS_SUCCESS != RtlIntegerToUnicodeString(memVal,10,&uniErrorString) ) { RtlInitUnicodeString(&uniErrorString, L"0x0000000000000003"); // error condition } testDONE: // do error things...

    - How to read data in IRP_MJ_READ and IRP_MJ_WRITE Hi, I have an upper filter driver for a serial port which can see the various IOCTls going down to the driver from the application (i.e. Hyperterminal) which has been loaded on top of it. I want to be able to read the data that is being sent and received by Hyperterminal but I can't see how to extract this. Should I be able to see this in the SystemBuffer or the MDL? The IRP Flag DO_DIRECT_IO is set which would suggest that the MDL is in use but the Irp->MdlAddress pointer is NULL. Thanks O.C.

    - Remote Debugging, User and Kernel Mode I'm setting up host and target machines for debugging both kernel mode code, built with the DDK, and user mode code, built with Visual Studio. NET. I'm planning to use the Visual Studio debugger for the User code. It appears to support remote debugging, but I've never used it this way. My host-target connection here will be via my ethernet LAN. I plan to use Windbg for the driver code. I have a dedicated 1394 connection for Windbg, which seem to work. To you experienced developers, does this setup make sense? Right now I'm concerned about making sure that the executables are always up-to-date on the target, and that the symbols are always current. Any tips for changing or using this setup would be appreciated. I don't suppose I can use one debugger for both kernel and user mode, can I?

    - Keyboard filter to simulate keys Hello, I'm new to driver development, in fact I have never written a real mode sys file nor a driver. Now I have to accomplish the following task: A program generates virtual key events to control a directx game. Because directx directly reads out the keyboard I can't simply use the WinAPI keybd_event or a simple SendKeys function. So the best way seems to be to send the keystrokes from my application (can be delphi, c++ or vb) to the keyboard filter driver that creates the keystroke. Therefore I register a new keyboardchain filter KbdFilterInit Then I'd like to feed keys into the keyboard chain to simulate button press events. Therefore I create KeyData packets. To process the keyboard chain I implement proper dispatch function for reading NTSTATUS KbdDispatchRead( IN PDEVICE_OBJECT DeviceObject, IN PIRP Irp ) So my questions are: Is there already something similar out there that I can use? Is it possible to create such a driver file without getting 1000s of blue screens? What's the easiest way to do this. How can I send some bytes from my app to the driver? (My app tells the driver to generate an 'F1' keystroke...) Is my theory correct? I hope to get some help from you. Thanks for any hints Mel NTSTATUS KbdFilterInit( IN PDRIVER_OBJECT DriverObject ) /*++ Routine Description: Create a device object and attaches it to the first keyboard device chain Arguments: DeviceObject - pointer to a device object.

    - WZC vs OID_802_11_SSID... hi, I'm building my wireless lan driver and encounter the following situation: After I've finished to connect to AccessPoint, and PING is working normally. After couple of minitus, I will receive OID_802_11_SSID again. I don't know why WZC send this OID to me again, but if I use my utility(just like WZC) it works well. That means I wouldn't receive this OID under my utility when PING is ok. Could somebody tell me when will WZC send OID_802_11_SSID(ssid field included the name in Perferred Networks) again? If my connection is established, it seems WZC shouldn't send this OID to me? Any help, thank you very much. -RedOctober Tag: re: Problem accessing Intel chipset configuration registers Tag: 52000

    - Fucntional USB driver launching USBPRINT with error. All please help me to solve this to me tricky problem. I have an USB printer which don't report the correct class id. The printer reports USB\Class_ff and my driver replaces this string with USB\Class_07 when enumerated. This makes the USBPRINT system to launch exactly as I want, until USB print starts the PDO.

I then expect USBPRINT to be started, but no way. USBPRINT send an IRP_MN_REMOVE_DEVICE, why????? This makes every thing fail.

    - Enumerating USB ports I am trying to open cash drawer which is connected to Reciept printer (Printer is connected to USB port of CPU). We want to automatically detect the PORT for the selected printer. This works fine using "GetPrinter" WinAPI (populating _PRINTER_INFO_2A structure). And it displays USB002. To open cash drawer we use "CreateFile" and "WriteFile" WIN APIs. These functions work fine if PORT is of LPT/COM, but if its USB, it throws invalid handle. To interact with USB, we need to send DevicePath. Using SetupDiClassGuidsFromName, SetupDiGetClassDevs, SetupDiEnumInterfaceDevice, SetupDiGetInterfaceDeviceDetail of "SetupAPI.dll", we can enumerate available interface devices and can get DevicePath. But how do we map this strange DevicePath with Port name ? For example, For port USB002, how do I get respective DevicePath ?

    - HELP! I enrolled in device driver class. My employer has purchased one week's training next week for device driver development. This is all to my suprise because I have been asking for the training for well over two years now. My only problem is that have been developing NT Services (with great success) but have never been able to get my head wrapped around device drivers and their architecture. I really need some help and I am out of time (almost). What book or on-line reference can I go to that will help me prepare for this class? I just have 6 days for prep and I feel very behind. I'm not even really sure what the different kinds of device drivers there are or what kinds of things that I can do with them. When complete with the course I am expected to work on a few projects that would either require several messy NT Services (polling and scanning) or just a few device drivers. Unfortunately, my understanding of device drivers is so limited that I'm not even sure if I'm right. I need some materials and I need them fast!!! thank you for all your help! Please do not respond via email directly because my current web connection (linux) does not like my email at this point but newgroups are awesome. All of my other machines are Windows flavors but my internet connection is linux and the only thing the stinking thing does not like is my email. Also, if someone is cross-platform savvy and wants to point me to a place that can outline a device driver in linux that might be interesting. THANKS!!!!!!

    - is it possible (fake file) I would like to attempt to create a "fake file" where when you do a 'dir' or subsuquent command it shows the file and all the normal information for a file. I can even open the file in notepad or such but the file must remain as read-only at all times. The reason is that when someone opens the file at that point they are reading a snapshot report of status items of their machine ... like maybe memory and hard drive space and current CPU status. A "copy" of this file to a new location is not necessary but would be nice. To get the contents of this file from fake status to real status I would just say "type fake.file > real.file" and it would be created. Another possible choice would be to have a notification I guess when the file is opened and at that point I generate a file in memory and give the opening application a handle to that file and not the actual file. I am new to device drivers but not to C++ and I create NT Services all the time. My current design uses an NT Service to generate this file but it would be much more effective if I could create this "fake file" for reasons not entirely outlined above. The only operating system that I plan on running this on is Windows 2000 Server/Professional or greater. thanks!! Tag: re: Problem accessing Intel chipset configuration registers Tag: 51958

    - Serial Upper Filter Driver Help Required Hi, This is my first driver project. I need to write an upper filter driver for a serial port which is dynamically loaded from a test application when required. The driver will be loaded by means of the Service Control Manager and the driver will connect to the serial port by means of a special "start" IOCTL call from the test application using the DeviceIoControl() function, this will pass the name of the serial port device i.e. \??\COM4". The driver will attach to the named device leaving it in a state where it can still be opened by a 3rd party application. When loaded the driver will monitor incoming and outgoing data on the port and pass it back to the test application. I have used two of Walt Oney's sample projects as a starting point for my code. My driver loads and unloads OK but when I attempt to open the serial port from a 3rd party application (Hyperterminal in this case) I get a bugcheck as described below. I have included here the "bones" of the DriverEntry, AddDevice and DispatchAny functions. The bugcheck occurs at point XXX at the bottom of the DispatchControl function. I guess I have "broken" the IRP in some way but I don't know how. I can't see what the problem is but I am hoping that someone on this group will be able to see what I can't.

    - [Q] Many problems installing DDK I'm having a great deal of difficulty getting the Windows Server 2003 DDK to install correctly. I'd like to know if I'm doing something wrong and be set straight. (1) Attempting to build the samples in the kit fails, i.e., several of the samples fail with [relatively minor] errors: bin\x86\prefast\examples\pft-example2.cpp(17) : error C4700: local variable 'a' used without having been initialized bin\x86\prefast\examples\pft-example1.cpp(14) : error C4700: local variable 'j' used without having been initialized Granted, these are trivial but the docs say that the kit should build with no warnings or errors. Hence, my uncertainty as to the quality of the distribution. (2) The setenv.bat file, on line #254, sets an environment variable as follows: set _LINK_=/Tmp This causes the linker to fail because the file "/Tmp" can not be found. What is the _LINK_ symbol used for? This symbol occurs nowhere else in any makefile. *.def, or sources file. As far as I can tell, it's only purpose is to make my life difficult [:-) (3) Finally, when trying to link a simple user-mode application, the linker fails with a LNK4099 message: warning LNK4099: PDB 'mfcs42d.pdb' was not found with 'C:\local\sde\lib\winddk\3790\lib\wxp\i386\mfcs42d.lib' However, mfcs42d.pdb is nowhere in the DDK tree and nowhere on my system.

    - Confused about Kernel Streaming / DShow clocks... Hi folks, Just a quick post to see if someone can clarify my understanding of kernel streaming clocks.- I think I've got the basics, but there are a few loose ends... I've got a multimedia card with separate audio and video capture drivers written under the stream class driver. At the moment, the captured audio & video has a habit of drifting out of sync, so I need to put clock support into the drivers. Additionally, the hardware has 27 MHz counter that can be queried to give me a very accurate clock source. As I currently understand it: a) I need to get both audio and video capture drivers to support being a master clock. b) I need to get the drivers to be able to timestamp samples based on the master clock for the graph (which might be themselves, or might be from somewhere else). Here's where I have a few questions... Q'n 1. It seems that there seem to be several ways of doing "a)" and "b)" - MSDN seems to indicate that I can do a) by including information in my HW_STREAM_OBJECT indicating that I can act as a master clock, by including appropriate clock support flags, and a callback routine (HW_CLOCK_OBJECT). - If I do that, then my clock support is going via the stream class driver. It then seems the the "similar" way of implementing b) is to use the "StreamClassQueryMasterClock" routine, using the clock handle passed to my driver via SRB_INDICATE_MASTER_CLOCK. Make sense so far? If so, then why is there also a whole load of KS Property stuff, which provide similar functionality? It seems that if I want to provide a master clock source via the KsProperty route,. then I'll have to implement KSPROPSETID_Clock, and also KS_PROPERTY_STREAM_MASTERCLOCK. Do I have to do both of these, or is it an either/or proposition, with the stream class driver doing some behind the scenes work for me in the first case? Qn 2: If I have the two filters running, and both can provide a master clock, then the audio capture driver will provide the master clock of the graph - so I need to get the other driver to timestamp samples based on the audio driver. StreamClassQueryMasterClock would seem to do the job if I want to use stream.sys, however, it's asynchronous, and it doesn't seem sensible to try and perform such a query every time a get a media sample. Any suggestions on strategies for getting the drivers to query the master clock at intervals and then interpolate? How is this normally done? Qn3: If I was to use the property set approach, instead of StreamClassQueryMasterClock, it seems that I need to get on driver to get hold of the direct call interface (KSPROPERTY_CLOCK_FUNCTIONTABLE) advertised by the other driver... how do I do that? thanks in advance, Martin Harvey.

I use a MIDIOUTCAPS __far * to adress the fields in the struct at the address passed via dwParam1. Is it because I compile it with MSVC 1.52c?

    - UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevices hangs with HWND Hoi. I am supplying some kind of application with my driver, which gives the user the possibility of adding or removing the driver dynamically. But since I got feedback of customers, the windows driver warning window sometimes appeares behind my application window, I am working on a patch (along with a few other bugfixes) right now. To solve the problem, I thought passing a HWND to the UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevices function call should be the solution. But I cannot tell exactly, because every time I pass the window handle to the function, it stops responding. The window handle is a valid one from an mfc propertysheet of a different process. This propertysheet calls a method of an com interface of an local server com object (interactive user privilegs) which is loaded by an system service. The problem appears in the UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevices as I found out with the debugger. The function hangs on forever, except for the case I kill the propertysheet's app. Doing so brings the UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevices function back to life, reporting an error. Does anybody have an idea what causes the problem and how to solve it, or has anybody experienced similar situations with UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevices? Thanks in advance, Laurents C. R.

    - AVStream: failed to connect TV tuner and TV audio decoder filters. Dear All, I implement a TV tuner, TV audio decoder and crossbar filters. I also implement PROPSETID_TUNER, PROPSETID_VIDCAP_CROSSBAR and PROPSETID_VIDCAP_TVAUDIO property set for them. My current status is that I could connect TV video pin of tuner filter to crossbar filter successfully. But I cannot connect TV audio outpin of tuner filter to TV audio inpin of TV audio filter. What value should I set to the TVAudioMedium fileld of KSPROPERTY_TUNER_CAPS_S structure if I want to connect TV audio outpin of tuner filter to TV audio filter (not crossbar filter)? PS : I have ever tried to set the GUID of TVAudioMedium to GUID_NULL and then my tuner audio outpin of tuner filter disappear. Any comments are welcome and very appreciated. Thanks, Edward Tag: re: Problem accessing Intel chipset configuration registers Tag: 51886

Update: After changing my direct accesses of the virtual address to the HAL
READ_REGISTER_*/WRITE_REGISTER_*
functions everything works like a charm. I had done this before, but that
was previous to where I had correctly mapped the
physical address to a virtual.

Correct. The HAL calls do the memory barriers necessary for register
accesses.
