    - Howto increase NT kernel stack size? (if it is possible at all) Is there a way to set the kernel stack size somehow? To increase it by setting some value? In the registry, or elsewhere? The story: It is known the NT stack size to be 12k (approximately). There is a bug of NT when a call to MmGrowKernelStack fail with STATUS_STACK_OVERFLOW. (the bug is concerned with DLL embedding and WH_CALLWNDPROC) There is a hope to somehow overcome the problem if increase the kernel stack size. Thanks. BTW, is the 64bit NT stack size is 12k too (just wonder)? Tag: Resetting a CD/DVD writer Tag: 104415

    - File System Driver, OLE Structured Storage problems-help! Hi! I'm having a problem in my FSD, trying to support StgOpenStorage. Basically I can create a store okay, but when I go to try and read it with another call to StgOpenStorage call I get the error (0x80030050, already exists). More specifically, I first create a store with STGM_TRANSACTED, STGM_READWRITE, STGM_SHARE_DENYWRITE and STGM_CREATE. The StgCreateStorageEx call works fine with these flags. But then when I try to get StgOpenStorage to work to open that already opened store, I get the error 0x80030050). This works on the FAT file system, but not in my own FSD. I've spent quite a bit of time looking at the activity of StgOpenStorage. When STGM_TRANSACTED and STGM_READ is indicated for an existing open DocFile , it seems like there is a cache read for the existing data, then a bunch of lock ops and then another cache read of size 0x200 with data that starts out as 0xFD 0xFF 0xFF 0xFF.... . Is this the two-phase commit process referred to here <http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa380017(VS.85).aspx>, where "a table is updated in the file using a single-sector operation to indicate that new data is to be used in place of the old"? When I try this on a regular FAT filesystem, filesys shows the second cache read to be the same as the first (after the StgmOpenStorage is called to open a store that is already opened). When I try this on my own FSD, the second cache read shows the 0xFD 0xFF 0xFF... for the first 512 bytes. The StgmOpenStorage call then fails with 0x80030050 (already exists). What might the StgOpenStrorage be looking at to determine if it can read the opened store, and why should it return the "already exists" error? Why would this first reference for data in 0xFD 0xFF 0xFF... for the first 0x200 bytes in cache happen for my FSD, and not for the FAT FSD (for example?). Please note, I see no additional actual writes that start with 0xFD 0xFF..., but what I see is that in the second cache read, this data mysteriously gets put there, which I interpret to perhaps be the "single-sector operation". Thoughts? Any help with this is greatly appreciated!!! Best, Steve PS To recap, here is what happens in my FSD, and in FAT-pay attention to steps 4,12, and 18: FAT My FSD 1) StgCreateStorageEx - returns OK, 1) StgCreateStorageEx - returns OK, handle is left open (not closed before #2) handle is left open (not closed before #2) 2) StgOpenStorage call to open #1 2) StgOpenStorage call to open #1 3) IRP_MJ_CREATE returns OK 3) IRP_MJ_CREATE returns OK 4) IRP_MJ_READ first 0x200 bytes 4) IRP_MJ_READ first 0x200 bytes buffer looks like 0xD0 CF 11 E0 A1.. buffer looks like 0xD0 CF 11 E0 A1... 5) FileBasicInformation: Attrib ARCHIVE 5) FileBasicInformation: Attrib ARCHIVE (I set the ARCHIVE bit cuz FAT does) 6) FASTIO_LOCK 6) FASTIO_LOCK 7) FASTIO_LOCK 7) FASTIO_LOCK 8) FASTIO_UNLOCK_SINGLE 8) FASTIO_UNLOCK_SINGLE 9) FASTIO_LOCK - 9) FASTIO_LOCK - STATUS_LOCK_NOT_GRANTED STATUS_LOCK_NOT_GRANTED 10) 4 FASTIO_LOCKs 10) 4 FASTIO_LOCKs 11) 4 FASTIO_UNLOCK_SINGLEs 11) 4 FASTIO_UNLOCK_SINGLEs 12) IRP_MJ_READ with DATA the SAME 12) IRP_MJ_READ ,DATA DIFFERENT!!! as #4 Data starts with 0xFD 0xFF 0xFF 13) FASTIO_LOCK 13) FASTIO_LOCK 14) FASTIO_LOCK 14) FASTIO_LOCK 15) FASTIO_UNLOCK_SINGLE 15) FASTIO_UNLOCK_SINGLE 16) FileStandardInformation 16) FileStandardInformation 17) FileBasicInformation 17) FileBasicInformation 18) FastIORead - SAME as #4 and #12 18) IRP_MJ_READ, buffer starts with "Root Entry" 19) IRP_MJ_READ offset 0x1000, all zeroes 19) IRP_MJ_READ, offset 0x1000, 0's 20) IRP_MJ_READ, offset 0x10000, EOF 20) IRP_MJ_READ, offset 0x10000,EOF 21) FASTIO_UNLOCK_SINGLE 21) FASTIO_UNLOCK_SINGLE Tag: Resetting a CD/DVD writer Tag: 104413

    - Handle call to FlushFileBuffers in UMDF driver Hi, I have a UMDF driver which creates a virtual serial COM port. An application, which calls FlushFileBuffers with a handle to this COM port, receives error 50, which indicates that this request is not supported. The driver for the normal COM port, however, supports a call to FlushFileBuffers, at least this call does not fail. In the KMDF serial port driver example one can find that it handles IRP_MJ_FLUSH_BUFFERS. So I guess I need to implement the corresponding interface in UMDF. However, I was not able to find it. Which interface must be implemented to handle IRP_MJ_FLUSH_BUFFERS. Thanks for any suggestions and best regards, Andre Tag: Resetting a CD/DVD writer Tag: 104412

    - USB composite device on Window 2000 We have developped one BDA driver for USB devices. The driver is able to handle single interface devices as well as multiple interfaces devices (USB composite devices). On windows XP and Vista platforms, everything works fine. On windows 2000 with single interface devices, it works fine. But on windows 2000 with USB composite devices, we are facing problems in the AddDevice() handler : The call to KsCreateDevice() fails with return code STATUS_INSUFFICIENT_RESSOURCES. One call to IoGetDeviceProperty() fails with return code STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND The strange thing is same function calls succeed on Win XP with composite devices or on Win2000 with single interface devices. I'm suspecting something going wrong with the usbhub.sys. Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks Francois. Tag: Resetting a CD/DVD writer Tag: 104401

    - BSOD with user-mode display driver (WDDM) in Vista Hi All, I'm working on r200umd user-mode sample display driver and I'm facing some problem after its Openadapter function is getting called. Openadapter is returning status as S_OK. In this call, it is passing pointers of CreateDevice and GetCaps. After this call, GetCaps is getting called but in the WDDM documentation nothing much is mentioned about this function. And inside this function, sometimes I'm getting BSOD after calling 'bDD4DISPInitDD' function inside R200D3DDevInit function. And sometimes GetCaps is getting called repetitively and after some iterations getting crash. But never got a call for CreateDevice. Actually I would like to know what actually GetCaps should return and when CreateDevice will get called and why GetCaps is getting called repetitively??

The problem is that while the finished install shows the driiver installed (in Device Manager), the network information, joining the workgroup (not WORKGROUP), and the attachment to the network printer are not being completed. I'm assuming it's because the network adapter is not being installed early enough in the installation process.

    - Obtain FAT32 volume data just as it's done for NTFS Hi. I have problems with obtaining FAT32 volume data. For NTFS there's a FSCTL_GET_NTFS_VOLUME_DATA control code, and nothing similar for FAT32. Actually I need only 2 pieces of information: 1) The offset of the starting sector of the volume from the beginning of the disk; 2) The number of the sectors per cluster, or the number of bytes per cluster. At the first glance you may think it's easy to obtain them using IOCTL_DISK_GET_PARTITION_INFO control code, but the things are somewhat complicated. For NTFS volume the starting sector offset can be obtained easily dividing the starting offset of the partition (in bytes) by the number of the bytes per sector (the mentioned arguments are obtained through IOCTL_DISK_GET_PARTITION_INFO and IOCTL_DISK_GET_DRIVE_GEOMETRY control codes). For FAT32 volumes data sectors start from partition offset + reserved sectors + n*FAT size, and it's impossible to get these arguments through any conrol code. The only obvious way to obtain them is reading sector 0 of the partition, which contains all the necessary data. Unfortunately I have problems with reading exactly sector 0 - a legacy filter driver encrypts/decrypts all read/write operations and it functions incorrectly just for sector 0 read operation, as a result I get garbage. Question: Is there another way to obtain the 2 abovementioned pieces of volume information? Thanks in advance Martin Tag: Resetting a CD/DVD writer Tag: 104380

Has anyone used or seen a CDC .inf file for Windows98 that correctly installs a CDC VCOM device and issues it a port number correctly in device manager? Tag: Resetting a CD/DVD writer Tag: 104325

    - [OT] Process Monitor Symbols loading Problem on Windows 2000 Professional,... Hi, i know this is not the NG for this, but even after asking this question on Sysinternals Forum, i did not get a solving answer on this. The Process Monitor does not load/download the symbols for my Windows 2000 Professional System. Any other Application WinDbg, Process Explorer works fine and the configuration is not different from the others, since they all use the same method to get the symbols from MS Symbol Servers. Process Monitor still wont resolve callstack/frames, even there is the pdb files available for the binaries. It also does not download the symbols from MS Sym Server. All other applications work well with ms symbol server. I really dont know what the problem here is. It seems like Process Monitor (i use the latest) does try to access the pdb files with wrong filenames, e.g. instead of using e.g. kernel32.pdb it tries to get the symbols for the kernel32.dll with its original name, which means that it looks for a debugging database file with the extension dll, which for sure does not exist on the server and the local system. But if you like, you can read this thread i started on sysinternals forum, which has more information about: http://forum.sysinternals.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=14076 Any more ideas,...i must apologize, this is my second post here, but maybe someone has a idea on this, after reading the sysinternals posting from me, that has some more information about this s***.

    - Driver Profiling On Server 2003/2008 Hi! What do folks suggest for profiling tools to tune an NDIS miniport on Server 2003 and 2008. What results have people found with tools such as VTune? Thanks! Tag: Resetting a CD/DVD writer Tag: 104320

    - SCSI Pass Through to SAS Enclosure Hi, I need to send various SCSI commands to a SAS disk enclosure connected with LSI SCSI HBA. I read the SPTI sample in DDK and realize I need to use CreateFile with device name such as \\.\PhysicalDrive0, \\.\scsi1: to get a handle of the device and then use the handle in the SCSI_PASS_THROUGH IOCTL call to send SCSI command to the specific SCSI device. But I could not find the name for the SAS Disk Enclosure. Can anyone give me a hint on the disk enclosure name and how to discover a disk enclosure? Thanks, Ken Tag: Resetting a CD/DVD writer Tag: 104319

    - verifier - caller complete power irp without passing down Just wondering peoples opinions. I normally just leave verifier running for my stuff with the standard settings. I just saw the below error when the system was sitting idle. My driver is a WinXP SCSI miniport (so both my miniport and the scsiport are being "verified".) "Caller has completed successful IRP_MJ_POWER instead of passing it down". That sounds like its out of my control since its not getting passed down to the scsiport or me? Just wanting to confirm.

    - Graphic-Tablet driver Dear Newsgroup, I have a Graphic-Tablet that I like to use, but there is no driver support for Windows-Vista. So I decided to write an application that takes the role of a driver. Reading out the Tablet was quite easy because it is connected by serial port. To say the operating system were the mouse curser is, is although easy. But how to set the pen-pressure-information? Tag: Resetting a CD/DVD writer Tag: 104317

    - IPV6 Checksum offload Win2k3 Hi All, I'm supporting IPV6 checksum offload on Windows 2003 server. Though I return IPV6 capabilities in the MiniportQueryInformation, still NDIS does not seem to enable the IPV6 checksum offloads in the MiniportSetInformation call. Is there some registry parameter etc required to be set explicitly to enable IPV6 offload capabilities on Windows 2003 ? Thanks, Indira Tag: Resetting a CD/DVD writer Tag: 104316

    - BDA driver and MS Windows MCE Hello, I have a problem with developing BDA driver for MS MCE. First thing I did was to compile a BDA sample from MS DDK. This sample works in MS XP perfectly, but when I try to use this BDA driver in MCE it doesn't work I'm trying to run Media Center in MCE and this application can't find this BDA sample driver to receive TV. Can anybody help me to understand my problem? Thanks. Tag: Resetting a CD/DVD writer Tag: 104307

    - .INF setup fails using syssetup.dll, setupapi.dll, OK with Hardware Hi: Where is some documentation on the differences between the parsing of .inf files between the Hardware Update Wizard and installing .inf files using either syssetup.dll or setupapi.dll? The .inf file in question installs successfully (manually) with the Hardware Update Wizard, but fails with either of the dll methods. This happens to be the onboard NIC driver, so for an unattended install it's rather important to get this installed first, since there's no default Windows XP driver for the network. (It also does not install from the right-click context menu, but that is known since this is a pnp driver, not a service install) There is no [defaultinstall] section in the .inf file, and it has been extracted from a larger integrated setup.exe for nVidia motherboard drivers. I've hooked the .dll lines into the relevant part of the .inf for the specific hardware I'm using, and it runs from there. But then there is the error #E047: Setting registry/key value: no root specified followed by #E065 and #D064 errors that seem to cascade from the #E047 error. I can use devcon for this as a last resort, but I'd rather identify the reason for the discrepancy in parsing the .inf file first. Thank you in advance for your help. -- Roy Zider Example commands: rundll32.exe syssetup.dll,SetupInfObjectInstallAction NVENET2.NDI 128 A:\drivers\nvenetxp.inf rundll32.exe setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection NVENET2.NDI 128 A: \drivers\nvenetxp.inf The device hardware ID: PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0066 The .inf in question: ;/ *************************************************************************** \ ;| * *| ;|* Copyright 2001-2003 NVIDIA, Corporation.

    - enumerating all open WDFFILEOBJECTs? My device is not exclusive and can have multiple file handles open. I would like to store an integer that is unique to each file handle. It seems the recommended method is to store the data in the WDFFILEOBJECT's device context. However, when new data arrives from my device, the driver needs to examine and potentially update each integer that is unique to each file handle. Therefore, I need some way to enumerate all open WDFFILEOBJECTS. Is this possible? If not, my alternative would be to store a hash map or linked list containing all of the WDFFILEOBJECT handles and their corresponding integers. This map/list would be stored in the device context of my Device Object and updated in EvtDeviceFileCreate and EvtFileCleanup callbacks. Are there some built in data structures for hash maps or linked lists that would be helpful for implementing this? I'd prefer the first approach (enumerating the WDFFILEOBJECTs) so that I can let the framework manage the map between file objects and integer data. Any other solutions are welcomed.

    - My AVStream driver can't show video with YUY2 format in AMCAP Dear All, I use avshws sample to write the video capture driver for my PCI video capture card. I can show YUY2 video with graphedit. But when I use AMCAP or AMCAP2, the video will show up first time when the AMCAP is executed. But if I open the Video Capture Pin property and choose the same YUY2 320x240 mode, the AMCAP window just show black display. However, if I drag the AMCAP window to outside of the desktop area or overlap by another window, the AMCAP will update one or two frames. If I drag the AMCAP window and move continuously, the video frames will update continuously. It's quite strange. I have no idea what it related in my code. I have struggled almost one month to investigate the problem. Please give me some idea. Thanks a lot! Best regards Jerry Pan Tag: Resetting a CD/DVD writer Tag: 104275

    - Video properties cannot be set in Vista I wrote a video capture driver for our company's usb webcam device in Windows 2000 many years ago. In Windows XP, the video capture driver still works, however, in Vista 32 bit, video properties cannot be set in amcap, skype, or Yahoo! messenger. The property settings(capture filter) box does not pop out in these applications, not to mention chaning the properties. MSN Live messenger works as previous, and I can change brightness, contrast or white balance for our webcam. The default usbvideo.sys driver from Microsoft is tested against our webcam for cross-validation, and it does not have problem mentioned above. Therefore I know it's our driver's problem. I think the possibilites of the causes includes: 1. There are some "hidden" SRBs in Vista that our webcam driver does not handle. 2. MS secretly change the GUID of PROPSETID_VIDCAP_VIDEOPROCAMP in Vista, thus applications does not know our webcam supports video property settings. 3. Our driver does not follow new AVStream architecture and DirectShow does not support it. (I hope not, or I have to rewrite our driver) However, all of these cannot explain why MSN Live messenger still works. I wonder what is the true cause of this problem?

    - Virtual Smartcard Driver (kmdf) -> WdfDeviceCreateDeviceInterface? I want to build a non pnp smartcard driver. I just tried to followed the suggestions in the thread: http://www.techtalkz.com/microsoft-device-drivers/296063-virtual-smartcard-reader-not-listed-scardlistreaders.html That included starting with the pnp smartcard driver sample from the WinDDK 6001 and remove the pnp stuff. So I tried to uses the initialization routines from the nonpnp kmdf driver sample (same DDK). I stuck calling the essential function: WdfDeviceCreateDeviceInterface(Device,&SmartCardReaderGuid,NULL) which returns 0xC0000010, STATUS_INVALID_DEVICE_REQUEST. Unfortunately I cannot find out why this happens cause the WDFLOG command "!D:\WinDDK\6001.18000\bin\x86\wdfkd.wdflogdump TSBTCS" returns: "Could not find TSBTCS in wdfldr client list" From a newsthread I read something about non pnp drivers not allowed to call WdfDeviceCreateDeviceInterface.

    - What does the DDK compiler have that the Visual C++ 2005/8 doesn't? I was just informed that it is impossible to use WPP in user-mode applications built using Visual C++ because... "WPP is exclusively DDK (see MSDN hits)". Well, the above statement may be not 100% accurate since the following MSDN link gives some hope that it might be possible to use WPP in Visual C++ *if* the compiler is replaced by the DDK's: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb500923.aspx I said "hope" because even that tiny clue is missing some critical information such as the actual command to execute in order to re- configure Visual C++. Assuming that it may be possible to overcome the "chain reaction" of a whole slew of new problems stemming from re-configuring my application's build environment to use the DDK compiler, I am now curious to know: What does the DDK compiler have that the Visual C++ 2005/2008 doesn't have? Is there a comparison table somewhere that would let me figure out what are the side-effects of substituting one for another? In particular, what in the WPP makes it usable only via the DDK compiler? Is it really the *compiler* itself? or is it actually the DDK environment (libraries, include files, environment variables, etc.)? Thanks, Don Tag: Resetting a CD/DVD writer Tag: 104229

I've got some code which does low level access to CD/DVD writers using SPTI.

That's all fine, except when something goes wrong (usually, sadly, the
result of my bugs :( ).

Then I'm left with a device which thinks it's busy and I can do nothing to
persuade it otherwise (save reboot the machine).

What I think I want to do is a device reset, but this seems not to be
supported, either as a SCSI command or an IOCTL.

How can I reset the device/subsystem so that I can gracefully back out of my
error condition and start to re-use the device?

(Sample code would be particularly nice)

Thanks

Try disabling the device in Device Manager and enabling it back.

That's an interesting idea, which I will try out.

My test CD is an external USB device so I've tried 'Safely Remove Hardware',
turning it off and restoring the power and the device.

This seems to work sometimes but not other times. When it doesn't work, I
need to reboot to get the thing going again.

Also, both these approaches are hard to implement in code. I'd like to be
able to recover from code errors gracefully ...

Thanks

It is possible to 100% debug the writer code, so this will not be an issue.

Why are you powering down the machine when you can just unplug your
USB device instead?

> I'd like to be able to recover from code errors gracefully ...

Specify a timeout in your SPTI commands. When the command hangs the
timeout will be reached. Windows will then reset the device.
