    - How to include header files of DDK correctly in MSVC 6? I often need to write windows program (using MFC) that uses special APIs defined in DDK header files. Therefore, the project includes some header files from MSVC and some header files from DDK. I add the DDK header file directory into MSVC's include path. (VC6's top menu : Tools /Options/Directories/Include files) However, I often get many compile errors in those DDK header files since it seems that DDK's header files have some conflicts with MSVC's header files. Each time I need to try many include order and possibilities. Does anyone know the method that can simplify this effort? or What's the correct method to include DDK header files for windows program in MSVC 6?

    - classifyfn never called Hello, Hopefully this is the place to post this. I'm trying out the vista beta 2 and the WDK 5384 and learning to write a driver as I go. So I'm trying to get up to speed with a new task at work and I'm stumped at this point. Maybe someone out there has an answer to this. I've looked through the WDK documentation and I'm still frustrated. I'm supposed to investigate writing a kernel mode driver to run on vista that will log IP traffic. I create the classifyfn, noifyfn and flowdeletefn, create the FWPS_CALLOUT0 structure and register it successfully. I know the filter engine is running based on the call to FwpmBfeStateGet0() call. I create an FWPM_CALLOUT0 structure and provite it with the key that is my callout, the layer (I picked FWPM_LAYER_INBOUND_TRANSPORT_V4, but I've tried a few others as well), and call FwpmCalloutAdd0() successfully. All that *seems* fine, but I must be missing something here as my classifyFn is never called. I would have expected it to get called at some point when I had IP traffic. Has anyone done anything such as this? I'm still trying to get my hands around this problem. It was my assumption that filter engine would then automatically call my classifyFn and then I could process the info at that point. Am I missing something? Thanks in advance for your advice.

    - vmware & usb isochronous transfers Hi everyone, Bit of an esoteric question here.. The latest VMware workstation now supports isochronous transfers for USB devices. I've checked it works using a USB audio device in conjunction with microsoft's usbaudio.sys driver. But for some reason my own (in-development) driver is not able to do isoch transfers. I don't get returned any errors when submitting the requests, but my IoCompletion routine does not get called in a timely fashion, and from monitoring I can see that the usb requests to not make it to the wire. I've checked over and over to make sure my requests are good, and can't see anything out of line (I've been using the isousb sample code as inspiration). The driver works fine when used normally (i.e. not under vmware). Does anyone have experience of this, or know of any special requirements for vmware - usb isoch?

    - PnP: What is causing this rebalance? I'm modifying the toaster bus sample to support other devices, and no matter what resources I request for these devices, the PnP system tries to rebalance and (eventually) fails. I can't figure out what resources are in conflict. Here is the output from kd for the resources I'm requesting for this particular device: ResReqList: Interface: ffffffff, Bus: fff, Slot: 0, AlternativeLists: 1 Alternative List: DescCount: 1 Opt: 1, Share: 3 IO Min: 0:00000000, Max: 0:0000ffff, Algn: 1, Len 1 This port range does include some ports that are not in use by any other device, as near as I can tell from the other Resource Requirement Lists printed out in kd. Is there another way to see where the conflict is happening? One other curious thing: My bus driver FDO gets IRP_MN_QUERY_STOP_DEVICE, which it succeeds, and then it immediately gets IRP_MN_CANCEL_STOP_DEVICE. Could that be part of the problem, and if so, how do I find out who's failing the QUERY_STOP_DEVICE? Thanks, John Tag: Is it poosible to write Vista Model driver on old 2D card? Tag: 81877

    - USB class For a long time, Microsoft has been mentioning in this group (and various places in the documentation) that peripherals are required not use Class=USB in their infs because that's reserved for host controllers and hubs. Dire WHQL consequences have been hinted at. I was just trying to convince one of our firmware guys of this, and he pointed out that there are several .inf files in Windows\INF that violate this rule, including many that are WHQL signed... notably many things that act like thumb drives such as media players, as well as a couple of modems (mostly this question comes up around here with respect to development devices such as FTDI/EZ-USB/etc.). So... What's the current state of this advise? What's the actual fallout if you violate this rule? -- Ray Tag: Is it poosible to write Vista Model driver on old 2D card? Tag: 81859

    - Vista TCP I'm having a problem with a 802.11n WiFi driver I am developing for Vista (build 5384). When I use a static IP address, everything works fine. However, if I use DHCP, I don't get a DHCP address allocated to me from the AP. I know DHCP in Vista 5384 works because I have a Realtek 8185 802.11g card that works OK. Here are a couple of clues to the problem: 1. The first thing I found was that the driver was transmitting the DHCP DISCOVER broadcast packet and then receiving a DHCP OFFER broadcast back from the AP. However, the driver's packets filters were setup to handle only DIRECTED (i.e. unicast) packets. This seemed a little strange, since I believe during TCP protocol initialization the driver should be called to set the the MULTICAST and BROADCAST filters. 2. Thinking that perhaps I had a problem with the packet filters, I jury-rigged the driver to accept all packets which then started indicating the DHCP OFFFER broadcasts up to the protocols. This did not work. TCP still would not transmit a DHCP REQUEST packet to the AP. 3. Thinking that I still have a problem with the packet filters, I add more debug traces to the driver and rerum the test. PRESTO! Now I have a valid DHCP address from the AP. Strange. However, now I cannot ping the AP. Anybody have any thoughts about this problem? ((&-> Tag: Is it poosible to write Vista Model driver on old 2D card? Tag: 81851

    - USB 2.0 isoch irp IoCompletionRoutine delayed on SMP machines Hi all. I'm developing a USB 2.0 driver for XP that runs in and out isoch and bulk pipes at the same time. On SMP machines I'm seeing the following issue: As long as only isoch irps are submitted, the isoch irp IoCompletionRoutine gets called immediately (or at least less than 1 ms) after the IN stream urb was filled with data. However, as soon as bulk or control requests are submitted asynchronously, there is a certain chance that the callback into the isoch IoCompletionRoutine gets delayed for up to 10 ms. This happens only on SMP machines and only with the MS USB 2.0 EHCI driver, I'm not seeing any starvation on single processor systems or when using the USB 1.1 UHCI driver on SMP systems. The starvation always occurs if the bulk request was submitted right before the isoch IoCompletionRoutine is due. I tried synchronizing the bulk requests with the isoch requests (i.e. only issue a bulk request immediately after an isoch request). This reduced the frequency of the starving issue a lot. However, I'm still seeing delays from time to time, especially if the bulk traffic is high. Another workaround might be to set the processor affinity for both, the isoch and the bulk requests to the same CPU. However, to do this, I would need to change the processor affinity of the EHCI DPC that issues the IoCompletionRoutine. Is there a way to retrieve the PKDPC from the IoCompletionRoutine? I guess not. So my question is: Is this a known issue, and if so, is there a better workaround? -- Stephan Tag: Is it poosible to write Vista Model driver on old 2D card? Tag: 81848

    - avstream pin allocator framing requirements Hi everyone, I'm in the middle of writing my first avstream-based minidriver, and have been experimenting with the behaviour of everything. I'm confused, though, when it comes to the concept of allocator framing. I gather from the DDK documentation that I should be able to declare a KSALLOCATOR_FRAMING_EX struct and point to it in my pin descriptor, and through it specify what frame sizes my pin's process dispatch can accept. DECLARE_SIMPLE_FRAMING_EX(PinFraming, STATIC_KS_TYPE_DONT_CARE, KSALLOCATOR_REQUIREMENTF_SYSTEM_MEMORY, 1024, // Frames FILE_BYTE_ALIGNMENT, 6, // MinFrameSize 6 // MaxFrameSize ); Now with these requirements specified by my pin, I'd expect to be given up to 1024 frames, each of 6 bytes in size, in one call to my process dispatch. What I actually get passed is one frame 8192 bytes long, clearly beyond the range I specified. Any ideas why the system is ignoring my framing requirements? I've tried specifying much larger frame sizes, but the system still passes me 8192 bytes. Help! Thanks, Nick Tag: Is it poosible to write Vista Model driver on old 2D card? Tag: 81847

    - How to set the uninstall order of drivers with DIFxApp? I've created an installation package with InstallShield 11.5 for Windows. It installs four different drivers using "ready made" DIFxApp functions ie. the device driver wizard of InstallShield. One of the drivers is the parent driver for all the remaining three drivers. The installation works fine, but when I have to uninstall the drivers there is a problem: I should be able to tell the order in which the drivers are uninstalled. Is there a possibility to tell the DIFxApp the order in which the drivers should be uninstalled? I did not found any solution to this in InstallShield help, so I wanted to ask if anybody has already had to figure this out. Tag: Is it poosible to write Vista Model driver on old 2D card?

    - HELP: How to debug "stuck IRPS" in TDI filter Hi Our product contains TDI filter and File system filter driver. Lately, several applications began to stuck with no known reason. I think that one of our filters causes some of the IRPS to "get stuck" so the user mode process isn't getting a response to its request and it gets stuck too. These are the symptoms: -Two computers that sometimes have their telnet application stuck when it tries to disconnect. -One computer had it's excel stuck. I don't know if excel is creating some kind of communication so I don't know if the problem is in the TDI or the file system filter. -One computer that runs AutoIt (a QA helper app). The AutoIt got stuck and afterwards all iexplore, msnm, and outlook got stuck (the application window is freeze after I run it). The wired thing is, that mozilla firefox runs OK! All the problems occurred after SEVERAL DAYS of work while our product was running. Because most of the problems were in communications apps, we think it's the TDI filter. Any idea how to debug such a problem? Is there a way to get all the stuck IRPS for a process or a driver? (Maybe doing a manual dump and get it from there?) Thanks for any help.

But when i do the same thing in Win2k i get a status of 0xC000000D which in my test application translates to ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER. The test application is exactly the same code in xp and win2k. Can someone please help me with this, i have no clue on why it behaves like this since i believe that this is the correct syntax of doing a read.

    - SDIO: Is cmd53 tested with sdbus driver in XP, SP2 for block mode Hi, I'm doing sdio driver on XP SP2. This SDIO driver is compiled using 2003 SP1 ddk. SDIO card is coming up properly and i could do several operations using CMD52 (read/write etc). I have not enabled the interrupts yet. Now, i'm trying the CMD53. CMD53 works fine in byte mode. That is BlockMode in SD_RW_EXTENDED_ARGUMENT is set to 0 and the parameters in SDCMD_DESCRIPTOR set to SDTT_SINGLE_BLOCK and SDRT_5. But when i try the SDTT_MULTI_BLOCK mode, the command sent on the bus is not proper. I captured the CMD53 on the bus using LA, and this is what i found. My block size set was 4 bytes. I was trying to read/write 8 bytes so that two blocks of transaction should happen. But all the time, the CMD53 on the bus had 8 as Block Count. After i did some different exercise, i found that the Parameters.DeviceCommand.Length is sent as block count for CMD53 instead of .u.bits.Count in SD_RW_EXTENDED_ARGUMENT. (I made sure that the Block Mode in SD_RW_EXTENDED_ARGUMENT is set to 1 so that even on the bus i see the same for cmd53. I do not see any response from the SDIO card for this and also, the bus driver is returning back, 0xC0000185 or 0x80000011.. My sdio card supports block mode (the card capability reg- 0x08 of cccr reads 0x1F .....) Is the bus driver in XP SP2 tested with CMD53 block mode (or SDTT_MULTI_BLOCK) ?

    - Cache Coherency In an earlier post[1], Stephan Wolf says "On x86, there is no need to take care of any caching issues at all because x86 always guarantees cache coherency." I may be taking him too literally, but I don't see how that can be true. I've got a PCI adapter using a PLX 9030 that presents a 1K memory buffer at PCI BAR4 which is marked as cacheable to the OS. This is mapped in at DriverLoad using MmMapIoSpace() with MmCached. Once the OS is done transferring data out of the buffer, the buffer is released back to the adapter to refill with incoming data. When the memory is done refilling, the adapter hands ownership of the memory back to the OS and an interrupt is asserted. The problem I'm trying to address is how to ensure the CPU reloads its internal cache with the new data since I can see no way that it can be aware of the changes. The PLX 9030 is a target only device, so it can't master a special cycle on to the system bus. And I didn't see any way the CPU could snoop the memory for changes. The natural (and documented) way to keep the cache coherent is to call KeFlushIoBuffers() in the IRQ DPC before reading the buffer. But, as Stephan mentions, and as I've confirmed, this is completely macrolized away for x86 builds. It doesn't do anything. I haven't seen any HAL'd abstractions in the MmXxx() or KeXxx() routines that invalidate specific cache lines, so I think I'm being forced to get a little closer to the metal. It looks like the right thing to do would be to issue an CLFLUSH[2] op sandwiched between two MFENCE ops. But, that's pretty brute force, and I'm not sure these are supported by AMD. At least I couldn't find a definitive reference. If they definitely are, or if there's a different way to flush a cache line on AMD, let me know. Of course, WBINVD will work, but that flushes the whole cache to system memory, and all I need to make coherent is a tiny chunk that's <1K. Mighty inefficient. Another alternative would be to issue an INVLPG, but that seems to get all over the Memory Manager's business. If this were the right way, it would probably be better to MmUnmapIoSpace() and then re-map them. <gack> Hopefully this wasn't too newb. I've looked around the net and here for answer, so fire away! -Mark [1] http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.development.device.drivers/browse_frm/thread/7b6104ea25dfcebb/351bc138b87e61b1?q=cache+flush&rnum=4#351bc138b87e61b1 [2] Sure wish there was a MmFlushCache(base, size, read_not_write) call. Wait! There's KeFlushIoBuffers() now. :-/ Tag: Is it poosible to write Vista Model driver on old 2D card? Tag: 81778

    - Two filters in one AVStream driver Hello, All. I'm working on AVStream minidriver. And I want to create minidriver that will provides DirectShow filter to the user mode application all time while device is connected to the system and another one filter type that will be seen by system only then my device is switched in special state (looking at hardware state). And another one requirement is that these filers have different category (I mean category like "Video Capture source"). In AVStream documentation I have found two ways to implement additional filter type from same device. The first one is to implement two filter factories in one minidriver and to create filters of each type separately from driver. Does system notifies appications about new filters arrival in this case? Does there is possibility to point system that these filters have different categories (capture and decode, for example). The second way is to create AVStream child device. But it is not clear for me what driver will serves this child device. Please help me to clear these questions.

I want to write a device driver for a PCI video-capture card And in ddk docs related topics are : Kernel-Streming AVStream Minidrivers Streaming Minidrivers Audio Drivers Video Capture Drivers USB Camera Drivers DVD Minidrivers Broadcast Driver Architecture Drivers AV/C Client Drivers in WHDC pages it says , KS is a former model of AVStream vs. vs.. But KS is still in ddk docs For the moment , can you guide me about my video-capture-driver challenge , KS or AVS ? What about selecting framework -> streaming-mini, filter-centric or pin-centric ?? And also what about AV/C Client drivers , do i need to write it ?? (Other resources will make me very happy , if available for streaming... ) 2. DDK Docs say : "Audio/Video streaming (AVStream) client minidrivers (Microsoft® DirectX® 8.0, Microsoft® Windows® XP and later versions of the operating system) are typically written in C++. " Why typically C++ ? Is it a must or an advice for good coding or anything related with DirectX ? 3. What about needed minimum hardware knowledge for this project , what must i know about my video-capture card to write it's driver ? /* If anyone could provide any suggestions or insight, I'd be very appreciative. */ Tag: Is it poosible to write Vista Model driver on old 2D card?

    - Hiding device entry Hi all I want to hide my device entry under device manager in Windows XP . I came across a post which said when we set the DEVNODE status flag to DN_NO_SHOW_IN_DM we can acheive this. But the configuration manager part has API calls only to get the status of the devnode. Does anyone know how to set this flag. Is there any other means to hide device entry. My driver is not a filter driver. Mk Tag: Is it poosible to write Vista Model driver on old 2D card? Tag: 81762

    - Setting DefaultInputSlot in a PPD? Hello all, I build print drivers with the PostScript OEM customization tools, and I'm stuck on some driver/PPD interaction. The second tab in DocumentProperties is normally Paper/Quality, with two drop downs for Paper Source and Media. These are populated from the PPD via InputSlot and MediaType sections. The problem is that the PPD parser (or some other component) does not honor the DefaultInputSlot and DefaultMediaType directives, and it does its own thing. I'm using the German version, and the phrase "Automatisch Auswahlen" ("Automatically Select") is filled in for us. This phrase does not appear in the PPD, but does appear in PS5UI.DLL's resource section. This all means that we're not able to set a reasonable default, and this is causing us some real problems for a customer implementation. If we change the default in the UI, it "sticks", but we don't have portable access to the DEVMODE to muck with it ourselves. Looking in the MSDN docs: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/print_d/hh/Print_d/pscript_34563439-cd1f-4418-b51d-a3250e35df28.xml.asp It seems clear that InputSlot is being handled specially, and it suggests to me that DefaultInputSlot is simply ignored entirely. Looking at the IPrintOemDriverPS::DrvGetDriverSetting helper function, it seems that I'm able to *fetch* values, and IPrintCorePS2 lets me enumerate them, but I think I cannot find any mechanism to *set* these options. Is there any way I can set a default value for this field when the driver is installed without requiring the user to click a box after install?

    - I2C slave device address Hi all, I am in a very strange situation for the I2C bus slave device address manipulation. Basically I have some slave devices which I communicate over the I2C bus. They work fine on different machines with Intel motherboard. The problem arises when I connect a specific slave device to the Intel 82865G machine. The address I am sending over the I2C bus for the slave device is not acknowledged by the device. The same address is acknowledged by the device on another intel machine. According to the I2C specs, the slave device is supposed to send the acknowledgement when Master finsishes sending the Bits of the address byte by pulling the SDA line low. But in this case the slave device is not pulling the SDA data line low. I have tried many cases.. like increasing the delay between the SCL , SDA check, checking the video memory, assigning the different address. But nothing is working. I am not sure whats the difference between I2C bus on one motherboard and that of another. Both are Intel 82865G. I communicate with the I2C in a driver for a graphics cards and for Intel I directly get the Video memory, convert it to the Physical memory and write to the DDC registers. I am able to send the Start condition on the I2C bus , but when I send the address of the Slave device , its not acknowledging. Other slave devices of Same type work fine. It will be very helpfull If somebody can tell me whats going on over the I2C bus for this. Thanks. -- Abhijit. Tag: Is it poosible to write Vista Model driver on old 2D card? Tag: 81752

    - How long does it take to read a usb report? I am trying to check what is the maximum speed for read/writes of my pic 18f4550 usb device. It is a full speed device and an 8 byte length report, and I am using ReadFile and WriteFile. My results are that I get about 100 read write cycles in one second. Is that a normal speed for 8 byte reports? It seems quite slow ? My C loop is tight, and my device is a loopback device, i.e. it simply copies the input to the output?

    - Ndisprot problem with Intel Pro/Wireless 3945ABG Hi, I have developped an application able to control the laptop wifi adapter by setting and querying the oids OID_802_11 via the Ndisprot provided in Windows DDK 3790. This application works perfectly with the chipset Intel Pro/Wireless 2200BG and Intel Pro/Wireless 2100 and many other chipsets. The problem is that when I try to use it with the chipset Intel Pro/Wireless 3945ABG the oid OID_802_11_SSID does not work. The connection is simply not established and the IP is not retrieved. All the others oids works fine. Did you have any idea about it? Is it a known bug? Did you ever try the Ndisprot with Intel Pro/Wireless 3945ABG? I've already tried also the Ndisuio approach (using the source code of the DDK 2600.1106) obtaining exactly the same result: no connection is established when the OID_802_11_SSID is set. All the others oids works fine. Thanks Davide Tag: Is it poosible to write Vista Model driver on old 2D card? Tag: 81723

    - 1394 peripheral device identifcation (1) My driver is similar to 1394diag.sys which installs above Microsoft 1394 stack in Windows 2000/XP. This is unsigned driver. DeviceID for 1394 peripheral device is 1394\VendorName&ModelName. All my peripheral devices use same VendorName and ModelName. Still when a new peripheral device is connected, Windows 2000 and XP comes up with "New Hardware found" wizard. How can I avoid this? I donâ??t mind if I get warning "unsigned driver", but I canâ??t install driver again and again. Is driver signing required here to stop Windows prompting for driver for different EUID? DeviceId is same for all my 1394 devices and EUID is unique. What is the meaning of DeviceId if EUID is considered for DeviceId. (2) Is there any auto install method for driver to 1394 peripheral devices? I am looking for a way to have unique driver installed once for VendorName and ModelName. I know there are some topics in newsgroup. But what I dont understand is document clearly states driver for device is identified by VendorName and modelName. Documentation doesnot say driver has to be installed for every device if driver is unsigned. It only says driver installation will give "Unsigned driver" warning. So I am not sure if this is happening because driver is not signed or is it because of some other error/option in my own installation. (3) I didnâ??t see any driver signing document for peripheral drivers to 1394, found only 1394 bus drivers documentation. Thanks, Raj Tag: Is it poosible to write Vista Model driver on old 2D card?

Hi,
here is my question:
If the video card has no 3D hardware, is it possible to write Vista
Model driver?
Vista can support both W2k model display driver and vista model
driver. I found I can not install two video cards -- one is W2k model
driver and one is vista model driver on the same machine. Is it true
that two model drivers could not co-exist?
We have a video card only support DDRAW and no texture support. We
developed W2k model driver for all Window OS till WinXP 64. It seems
dead with Vista model since it is required Direct 3D suppport. Is it
true? Is it possible to write Vista model driver on 2D only card even
without texture support?

Thanks,

Yi

Hi,

i am not sure, but i think you can run both models on one single machine
and if you dont have 3D support on your card you will not be able to run
GUI applications with aero effect.

I think they can co-exist but maybe you can ask your question here:
