Architecture of the Kernel-Mode Driver Framework: This paper provides information about the Kernel-Mode Driver Framework KMDF, which is part of the Windows Driver Foundation WDF for the Microsoft Windows family of operating systems. WDF is a new model for driver development. KMDF supports the development of kernel-mode drivers that conform to this model. The paper describes...; Tags: Microsoft Corp., KMDF, Windows Driver Foundation, Microsoft Windows, Operating Systems, Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Software; White papers 2005-12-02
KMDF Debugging Extensions: Microsoft provides debugger extension commands to help in debugging drivers that use the Kernel-Mode Driver Framework KMDF. The extensions are supplied in the file Wdfkd.dll, which is installed in the bin/platform directory of the KMDF root. For example, the bin/x86 directory includes the extension library for debugging on the x86...; Tags: Microsoft Corp., KMDF, Microsoft Windows, Operating Systems, Software; White papers 2006-03-02

Sample Drivers for the Kernel-Mode Driver Framework: This paper provides information about sample drivers for the Kernel-Mode Driver Framework KMDF, which is a component of the Windows Driver Foundation WDF for the Microsoft Windows family of operating systems. The paper is for driver writers who are familiar with KMDF and are preparing to use KMDF to write...; Tags: Driver, Microsoft Corp., Microsoft Windows, Operating Systems, Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Software; White papers 2005-12-02
An Introduction to How to Build, Install, Test, and Debug KMDF Drivers: This paper is an overview of how to build, install, and debug Kernel-Mode Driver Framework KMDF drivers for the Microsoft Windows family of operating systems. Microsoft Windows drivers have, for many years, been based on the Windows Driver Model WDM. WDM drivers have a well-deserved reputation for being difficult to...; Tags: Driver, Microsoft Corp., Microsoft Windows, Construction, Operating Systems, Software; White papers 2007-04-06
I/O Flow and Dispatching in WDF Drivers: I/O processing is the heart of any driver. To understand how to implement robust I/O handling code in the driver, one must understand how I/O requests flow from an application to the driver, how the Windows Driver Foundation WDF simplifies the driver's I/O processing tasks, and what the driver should...; Tags: I/O; White papers 2007-04-10

Writing USB Drivers With WDF: A primary design goal for WDF was to make the driver models easy to extend to support new types of hardware. The first hardware-specific specialized I/O targets in both UMDF and KMDF support USB devices. One can use the USB I/O targets to write a fully functional Windows driver for...; Tags: USB Driver, USB; White papers 2007-04-09
Plug and Play and Power Management in WDF Drivers: The Windows Driver Foundation WDF implements a fully integrated model for Plug and Play and power management in both the User-Mode Driver Framework UMDF and the Kernel-Mode Driver Framework KMDF. The model provides intelligent defaults so that some drivers do not require any code to support simple Plug and Play...; Tags: Power Management, Windows Driver Foundation; White papers 2007-04-09
DMA Support in KMDF Drivers: The paper describes how Microsoft Windows drivers support Direct Memory Access DMA devices, using the Windows Driver Foundation WDF kernel-mode driver framework. Because understanding Windows DMA architecture is the key to properly implementing DMA drivers on Windows, this paper also describes the Windows DMA architecture and the Windows DMA abstraction.; Tags: Driver, Microsoft Corp., Microsoft Windows, Operating Systems, Software; White papers 2007-04-10
