Introduction: David Liao

  • 项目

My name is David Liao. I have been working for Microsoft for about 9 years. My working range is from Device Drivers to BSPs. I have done a lot of Windows CE drivers and BSPs for Microsoft. For example, User Mode Driver Framework, SD Bus driver re-design, USB 2.0 EHCI stack, PC Card stack, Windows CE Bus Driver Architect are among them. For the BSP, I had designed USB Function Controller driver, USB OTG, PCI and others.

 

Before I joined Microsoft, I worked for Xerox, Teklogix and other Company as a DSP Software Developer. I wrote several Digital Filters, Pattern Recognition and Networking Stack software for Company.

 

I have been in the software industry for 20 years. One thing I have learned from my experience: if there is bug, it will be hit sooner or later.

    What USB classes(Function Client Drivers) are supported by CE Function Stack ?  We are looking for CDC-ACM and CDC-WHCM support in the Function Stack. Is it supported?No, there is no USB function client driver support fors CDC-ACM directly. But, we have USB Function Serial driver which can support USB Modem (recogonized by XP and load USBSer.sys). This driver is very close to CDC-ACM and you can use it as example.Current, we don't have CDC-WHCM support.

    How to write a IDE device driver in WinCE5.0? I have written the FMD based driver for nand/nor which is FMD based. The FAT calls the FAL which calls the FMD layer and FMD layer writes to the nand/nor. The ide seems to be a Block device driver but how this driver works I am not able to understand. There are alot of references but dont know which one to use ..PUBLICCOMMONOAKDRIVERSBLOCK has ATADISK and ATAPI. The ATAPI contains numerous files for diffrent ATA devices. Can you let me know from where to start and which one to refer

    Hi PaulpanThis is Viral. I work in the same team as David and primarily work on USB.To talk to the device using the virtual com port, you can use usbser.sys driver on the desktop. The corresponding class driver on the device is serial which is located under WINCE500PUBLICCOMMONOAKDRIVERSUSBFNCLASSSERIAL.To use the serial class driver with usbser.sys, you will have to use the USBSER_CLASS profile in the registry instead of the SERIAL_CLASS as the default cient driver under HKLM/DRIVERS/USB/HKLM/DRIVERS/USB "DefaultClientDriver"="USBSER_CLASS"

    I may never know how many USB Function Class Drivers are supported today because a lot of external Windows CE developer are working on Class Drivers. I only can tell you what Microsoft have released.Mass Storage.USB Serial Modem Driver (Close to CDC ACM specificiation but it has differences).USB Activesync Driver.Microsoft RNDIS Client Driver.Printer Transport Function Class DriverComposite Function Driver.
