Re: [Mingw-users] building winddk sample driver

[Brian H. <bh...@lu...>]

FINALLY, it works.

I finally gave up trying to get the sample driver to build and work with 
the toaster bus driver.

Anyone out there following this thread in the future with the same problem, 
avoid the sample driver.  I don't know what wasn't working but I suspect 
some interaction between the toaster bus driver and the toaster function 
driver.

I just did my own simple driver which is a very stripped down version of 
our custom PCI hba.  I used the genpci in the general directory of the 
WinDDK distribution to create my sample .inf file. you can use the 
incomplete1.c of the function driver from the toaster (and toaster.H) with 
some modifications.  Specifically you'll have to add the DDKAPI into the 
method definitions.


Here is what works:

link with the following flags:

-shared -Wl,--entry,_DriverEntry@8 -nostartfiles -nostdlib

this works if you use:

NTSTATUS
DDKAPI
DriverEntry(
     __in DRIVER_OBJECT  *DriverObject,
     __in UNICODE_STRING *RegistryPath
     )
