- newbie virtual miniport storport question
- Posted by skarthikselvan@gmail.com on May 17th, 2008
Hi All,
I created a PDO in my virtual bus driver for my virtual miniport
storport . When an option is enabled to support iSCSI in my virtual
bus driver, I create this PDO for my virtual miniport storport driver.
I install my driver .sys for this new PDO. .sys file is copied into
driver directory and my installation hangs. Currently I simply return
SP_RETURN_NOT_FOUND in HwFindAdapter since I am testing basic things.
When I reboot my machine, the machine simply hangs. I am following
code base present I20 miniport driver code and some documentation in
MSDN. Do you have any idea why it hangs?
How will i attach my virtual miniport driver to virtual bus driver?
Since I don't have any AddDevice function call in my VMiniport, how
will I get the parent device object?. Do I have to use private
function call to communicate with virtual bus driver?
We are waiting for iSCSI DDK from Microsoft. Will it provide or does
it has enough documentation to write virtual miniport driver? Anyhelp
will be appreciated.
Thanks

Do you really need a bus driver?

All of them can be individual drivers. Why should you have a bus driver for
that?
