(Reply) Custom commands to miniport driver in '98

Hi Iqbal,

You can write a filter driver and your filter driver can pass your custom CDB to miniport driver. This can be achived this way. Let your application communicates with your filter driver and your driver creates IOP and IOR.
The IOP encapsulates IOR, SRB and CDB and pass it down the IOP using IOS_Send_internal request routine. For more information, kindly have a look on HelpVsd sample ships with windows 9x ddk.

I hope this helps you.

Hi All,
This questiion is seen asked before, but I couldn’t find any satisfactory
replies.
My doubt is if we define custome CDBs and commands in our miniport
driver(Platform : 98), what are the possible ways to send that CDB to the
miniport. Definitely we can use ASPI for this. Let me know whether any other
solutions in the manner of filters, VxD, class drivers exist.
Is there anything like INT 21(for read/write sectors) that can be used for
this need?

Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance,
Iqbal
