The samples in this directory provide a starting point for writing a custom driver for your device.
| Sample | Description |
|---|---|
| Cancel Safe IRP Queue | Demonstrates the use of the cancel-safe queue routines IoCsqInitialize, IoCsqInsertIrp, IoCsqRemoveIrp, IoCsqRemoveNextIrp. By using these routines, driver developers do not have to worry about IRP cancellation race conditions. |
| KMDF Echo | Demonstrates how to use a sequential queue to serialize read and write requests presented to the driver. |
| UMDF1 Echo | Demonstrates how to use UMDF 1 to write a driver and to employ best practices. |
| UMDF2 Echo | Demonstrates how to use UMDF 2 to write a driver and to employ best practices. |
| UMDF SocketEcho Sample (UMDF Version 1) | Demonstrates how to use the UMDF to write a driver and demonstrates best practices. |
| Hardware Event | Demonstrates two different ways a kernel-mode driver can notify an application about a hardware event. One way uses an event-based method, and the other uses an IRP-based method. The sample driver uses a timer DPC to simulate hardware events. |
| File History | A console application that starts the file history service, if it is stopped, and schedules regular backups. |
| Non-PnP Driver Sample | Demonstrates how to write a non-PnP driver using the Kernel Mode Driver Framework. |
| IOCTL | Demonstrates the usage of four different types of IOCTLs (METHOD_IN_DIRECT, METHOD_OUT_DIRECT, METHOD_NEITHER, and METHOD_BUFFERED). |
| ObCallback | Demonstrates the use of registered callbacks for process protection. The driver registers control callbacks which are called at process creation. |
| PCIDRV | This sample demonstrates how to write a KMDF driver for a PCI device. The sample works with the Intel 82557/82558 based PCI Ethernet Adapter (10/100) and Intel compatibles. |
| Kernel Counter | Demonstrates the use of the kernel-mode performance library. The driver does not control any hardware, it simply provides counters. The code contains comments to explain what each function does. |
| PLX9x5x PCI Driver | Demonstrates how to write driver for a generic PCI device using Windows Driver Frameworks (WDF). The target hardware for this driver is PLX9656/9653RDK-LITE board. |
| RegFltr | Shows how to write a registry filter driver. |
| Simple Media Source | Demonstrates how to write a custom media source and driver package. |
| System DMA | Demonstrates the usage of V3 System DMA. It shows how a driver could use a system DMA controller supported by Windows to write data to a hardware location using DMA. |
| Toaster Sample Driver | An iterative series of samples that demonstrate fundamental aspects of Windows driver development for both Kernel-Mode Driver Framework (KMDF) and User-Mode Driver Framework (UMDF) version 1. |
| Toaster Package Sample | Simulates hardware-first and software-first installation of the toaster sample driver. |
| Toaster Sample (UMDF Version 2) | An iterative series of samples that demonstrate fundamental aspects of Windows driver development using User-Mode Driver Framework (UMDF) version 2. |
| EventDrv | A kernel-mode trace provider and driver. The driver does not control any hardware; it simply generates trace events. It is designed to demonstrate the use of the Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) API in a driver. |
| System Trace Control | Demonstrates how to use event tracing control APIs to collect events from the system trace provider. |
| Tracedrv | A sample driver instrumented for software tracing. |
| UMDF Driver Skeleton | Demonstrates how to use the User-Mode Driver Framework to write a minimal driver and shows best practices. |
| Driver package installation toolkit for universal drivers | Illustrates DCHU principles of universal driver design. |
| WinHEC 2017 Lab | Toaster samples from the WinHEC 2017 Lab: Toaster Driver, PlugInToaster, and Toaster Support App. |
