Processor driver access

Hi,
I’m trying to access the processor driver, but I get a problem to find
it:
-The device name ( ACPI0007 ) is defined in ACPI3 only, it does not
exists in current versions of BIOS/Windows(XP).
-I cannot find GUID of driver in documentation, so I do not know if this
GUID is standartified.

Can any help with the subj? What can I use to find the processor driver
when scanning drivers?

What I/O are you trying to send the driver? IIRC, the processor driver
does not support creates or any I/O sent by other components, it
directly interfaces with the kernel/HAL via callbacks.

I’m trying to access any information related to p-states switch. I’m
thinking about catching WMI related stuff in order to do this.

Is it a bad joke? Intel can not find the processor driver…
Where you are looking for it?

Setup class is “Processor”
Compatible HW ID is “ACPI\Processor”

Class GUID is {50127DC3-0F36-415E-A6CC-4CB3BE910B65}

From here you find the driver service and it’s files… hope this helps.

The WMI GUID is different then the class GUID. I asked the processor
driver dev if these GUIDs are public, but my guess is that if you can
listen to them in user mode,they are published somewhere.
