IoReportDetectedDevice function on serial bus drive.

Is it possible, or is it the right way to approach the problem, to use the
win2000 IoReportDetectedDevice() function to tell IoMAnager that a new
device is detected on a serial (RS232) port (device with no PnP
capabilities)?
I have doubts on using this function because:

  1. it requires a Hw resource list!! My device is connected on RS232 port and
    than uses serial.sys driver, it doesn’t requires actual hw resources (irq,
    memory, ecc).
  2. I got not enougth informations on how to use it.

I need this function to make a full PnP device driver to manage a nonPnP
device plugged on a serial port.
Is there an alternative way to solve the problem?

Any kind of help will be apreciated.
Michele
