Agenda
Motivation
XP\Vista\Server 2003\Server 2008 WDM driver step by step configuration
And don’t forget KMDF
2
Daynix Computing LTD
Motivation
Maintain single code base for variety of Windows OSes
Build XP and Vista drivers with Visual Studio 2013
Use C++11 features of Visual Studio 2013 compiler for the development of kernel drivers
3
Daynix Computing LTD
What are the basic steps?
Use VS2013 compiler
Compile XP and Vista drivers using legacy DDK for include files and libraries
Change appropriate preprocessor definitions
Adjust linker options
Adjust packaging for KMDF
4
Daynix Computing LTD
Create configuration
Create configuration for desired OS and platform by copying existing configuration (for example Windows 7)
5
Daynix Computing LTD
Adjust includes and libraries paths
Include directories (when using Win7 DDK):
C:\WinDDK\7600.16385.1\inc\ddk;C:\WinDDK\7600.16385.1\inc\crt;C:\WinDDK\7600.16385.1\inc\api

Adjust libraries path
7
XP 32bit C:\WinDDK\7600.16385.1\lib\wxp\i386
Windows Server 32 bit C:\WinDDK\7600.16385.1\lib\wnet\i386
Windows Server 64 bit
C:\WinDDK\7600.16385.1\lib\wnet\amd64
Vista 32bit C:\WinDDK\7600.16385.1\lib\wlh\i386
Vista 64bit C:\WinDDK\7600.16385.1\lib\wlh\amd64
Change your libraries path according to the following table:

Adjust preprocessor definitions
Use the following link to set correct versions according to the target OS for:
WINVER
NTDDI_VERSION
_WIN32_WINNT
Example for Windows Vista:
_WIN32_WINNT=0x0600;WINVER=0x0600;NTDDI_VERSION=0x06000000

Daynix Computing LTD
Adjust linker settings (1)
Adjust “Additional Library Directories” to point to legacy DDK directory according to your platform (see also “Adjust libraries path” slide)
9
Daynix Computing LTD
Adjust linker settings (2)Change “Additional dependencies” to reflect needed libraries
The screenshot is an example of NDIS miniport driver
For WDM driver remove ndis.lib and add wdm.lib
10
Daynix Computing LTD
Adjust linker settings (3)Change “version” and “subsystem” parameter to reflect correct Windows version.

Package project
Adjust OS list for Inf2Cat
Possible options: XP_X86, Server2003_X86, XP_X64, Server2003_X64, Server2003_IA64, Vista_X86, Server2008_X86, Vista_X64, Server2008_X64, Server2008_IA64
12
Daynix Computing LTD
Check command lines of compiler and linker
Check compiler (C\C++) and linker command line for references to new WDK (Windows Kits\8.1 or Windows Kits\8.0)
Check that all the version numbers reflect correct Windows version
Fix if needed according to previous slides
13
BUILD THE DRIVER
14
Daynix Computing LTD
KMDF driver configuration (1)
Add paths to KMDF libraries and include directories as well
15
Daynix Computing LTD
KMDF driver configuration (2)Change driver model setting to “WDM”
This will allow to copy correct version of the WDF coinstaller from old DDK
16
Daynix Computing LTD
KMDF driver configuration (3)
Change driver entry point
17
Daynix Computing LTD
KMDF driver configuration (4)
In package project add a correct version of the WDF coinstaller from old DDK (can be a post build step or add it as a file that is part of the package).
