  the wizard in v6.00-6.01 (since v6.00).

• USB generated code: Solved the problem where code generated in v5.22 or lower and rebuilt
  with v6.0X failed to activate event_register() (since v6.00).

• Windows: Previously (from v6.00), on rare occasions WD_UsbTransfer() and potentially
  WD_IntWait() returned incorrect error status/caused a system crash.

• Windows: windrvr6.inf no longer demands an IRQ from Windows, and the memory range from
  which 1 byte was taken has been expanded, fixing WinDriver installation failure on some
  machines (since v6.00).

• WDREG: Previous junk messages and WDREG crashes have been eliminated (since v6.00).

• Visual Basic ISA code generation: Resolved previous compilation errors (bug since v6.00).

  transfer arrives, instead of waiting for the entire buffer to be filled.

• Windows CE: During CE startup, CE tried to load the wrong dll (windrvr.dll instead of
  windrvr6.dll).

• Windows 98: Copy newdev.dll to user's computer if does not exist. (This DLL is required for
  detecting the connected USB devices and for installing INF files for these devices).

• Linux USB: Interrupt transfer could cause a crash due to incorrect pipe type detection in the
  case of transfer failure.

• Linux USB: Linux occasionally returned incorrect error status.

• Linux USB: Fixed handling of devices with multiple interfaces.

• Visual Basic: Fixed Stat2Str() VB implementation (in wd_utils.cls) for correct handling of string
  transfers between C DLL and VB application.

• Visual Basic USB: Corrected function declarations in wd_utils.cls.

  nobody waited on.

Version 5.22 (Release Date - November 28 ^th 2002)

New Features

• Added support for Linux kernels compiled with gcc 3.x (e.g. RedHat 8.0).

• Added windrvr_isr() hook on VxWorks to allow the user to add code to an interrupt handler.

• Added enabling of PCI bus mastering on Linux to solve a problem with several BIOS that do
  not support this natively.

Enhancements

• Improved support for USB composite devices performing control transfers.

• WinDriver and KernelDriver documentation improved, including restructuring, many contents
  fixes and useful additions.

Fixes

• Windows
  • Fixed a bug in WDREG utility, which caused to fail on Windows 95.

• Linux
  • Fixed the generated Kernel PlugIn makefile on Linux. Previously in some cases "make
    install" would install the wrong files. Also the makefile now identifies various problems
    during the installation and automatically fixes them.

• USB
  • Solved BSOD that occasionally occurred on extraction of USB devices, while performing
    isochronous transfer.

  • Solved synchronization problem that sometimes cause BSOD with USB devices.

• KernelDriver
  • Fixed a bug in KernelDriver's function KD_OpenWinDriver() in kd.lib, on Win32
    platforms. Previously only the first call to this function was successful, while consequent
    calls would fail.

Version 5.21 (Release Date - October 23 ^rd 2002)

Enhancements

• Several transfer commands that acknowledge an interrupt/for interrupt acknowledgement can
  now be set in the DriverWizard.

• Improvement of Debug Monitor buffer overflow behavior, so that older messages are lost
  rather than new messages.

• Added DMA_ALLOW_CACHE option to WD_DMALock. It allows the locked memory on
  Windows NT, 2000 and XP to be cached to the CPU, thereby achieving a major increase in
  DMA speed (however it may cause data corruption).

• WinDriver can now automatically install an INF file for a device which is not connected to the
  computer.

• KernelDriver can now be loaded prior to loading WINDRVR.SYS.

Fixes

• General
  • Fixed a bug that caused memory corruption and BSOD on Win2000/XP, when
    performing contiguous DMA and calling WD_DMAUnlock.

  • Fixed BSOD when KernelDriver calls WD_IntCount from high IRQL (usually the function
    is called from windrvr_int_thread.h ISR).

  • Fixed BSOD in cases when a LOT of interrupts (231) are generated but no
    application/driver is registered to listen to them.

  • Fixed a bug that caused a potential for BSOD on each call to the Kernel PlugIn
    (especially on checked build when using Microsoft Driver Verifier).

  • Fixed a bug that caused Cypress EZ-USB firmware download to fail (especially if re-
    compiled).

  • Fixed bugs in the support for Visual Basic and Delphi, which caused compilation errors.

  • Fixed Scatter/Gather DMA handling on Linux, which gave wrong byte count to first and
    last pages.

  • Fixed a bug that caused the XXX_CountDevices function in the USB generated code to
    fail.

  • Fixed a bug in the Kernel PlugIn installation, which caused the Kernel PlugIn to fail to
    start after reboot.

Version 5.20 (Release Date - September 1 ^st 2002)

New Features

• Added Plug-and-Play and power management handling, both at the kernel and at the user
  level. This allows compliance with Windows Driver Model (WDM) functionality.

  on existing 32bit Windows and Linux operating systems, thereby getting maximum performance for drivers.

• DriverWizard now generates Kernel PlugIn code.

• Added enhanced support for PLX Technology's new product line, the PCI 9656 I/O
  Accelerator chip. The enhanced support includes special set of API which implements PLX
  9656 access and control, as well as sample application, which can be used as a skeletal
  driver.

• KernelDriver now supports generating drivers using all versions of DDK for all Windows
  operating systems, with extended support for Visual C++.

• Complete WDM support for KernelDriver, supporting the standard Windows Driver Model on
  Windows 98/ME/2000/XP.

• Code generation for user drivers now generates documentation for both header and body of
  the functions.

Enhancements

• Merged wdpnp.sys & windrvr.sys, resulting in a single driver file (windrvr.sys) for easier
  handling and distribution.

• Merged evaluation and registered distributions, saving additional installation once the
  software is purchased.

• Added dual processor and SMP support on Linux.

• Added scatter/gather DMA support on Linux 2.4.

Version 5.05 (Release Date - May 5 ^th 2002)

New Features

• Added enhanced support for PLX Technology's new product line, the PCI 9056 I/O
  Accelerator chip. The enhanced support includes special set of API which implements PLX
  9056 access and control, as well as sample application, which can be used as a skeletal
  driver.

Enhancements

• Improved interrupt handling on Windows NT 4.0 running on a computer with APIC (Advanced
  Programmable Interrupt Controller) chip, by retrieving PCI related data from the OS instead of
  directly from the hardware.

Fixes

• General
  • Fixed a bug in DriverWizard that caused issuance of "The resource is overlapped with
    another resource" warning messages on wrong circumstances.

  • Fixed a bug that, when using a kernel PlugIn, sometimes caused an interrupt not to be
    handled by the kernel PlugIn's DPC routine if the interrupt occurred immediately after it
    was enabled.

• Windows
  • Fixed a bug that caused BSOD when using the DriverWizard generated INF file on
    certain PCI devices (a bug since v5.04).

  • Fixed the file KP_95.lib which was missing several functions required for compiling
    Kernel PlugIn projects under Windows 95 (a bug since version 5.04).

• Unix
  • Fixed a bug that caused some Unix environment variables to be overridden by the
    DriverWizard.

Version 5.04 (Release Date - January 24 ^th 2002)

New Features

• Added USB 2.0 support under Windows 2000 and Windows XP.

• WinDriver Hardware Debugger now sends debug messages to the operating system's kernel
  debugger.

• Added version information to wdpnp.sys that can be retrieved by reading the file properties.

• WinDriver User's Guide now includes new, improved, function reference.

Enhancements

• WinDriver for USB - New API: WD_UsbResetDeviceEx(), allows reset of devices that are not
  in disabled state.

• WinDriver for USB - Added USB_SHORT_TRANSFER option to WD_UsbTransfer(). If set,
  the function will return successfully if a short packet (less than maximum packet size) was
  transferred, regardless as to whether the data buffer was filled.

• WinDriver for USB - Added USB_FULL_TRANSFER option to WD_USBTransfer(). If set,
  the function will return successfully if all the requested data was transferred.

• Minimized quantity of warning messages - when compiling code generated by DriverWizard
  under warning level 4.

• The descriptions and remarks embedded in the code generated by the DriverWizard were
  improved.

Fixes

• PCI - General
  • Access to EEPROM of PLX 9030, 9054 and IOP480 chipsets was improved. Now when
    access to EEPROM of these chipsets fails, WinDriver retries the entire access process.

  • Interrupt handling by DriverWizard was fixed. A bug since version 5.0 caused
    DriverWizard to handle interrupts without implementing all the parameters assigned by
    the user; this affected level sensitive interrupt handling and data transfer operation
    type definition.

  • Execution method of interrupts transfer commands was improved. Now the interrupt
    transfer commands are executed only if the application handling the interrupts exits
    abnormally. A bug since version 4.40 caused interrupts transfer commands to be
    executed each time the interrupt was disabled.

  • Fixed a bug that caused WinDriver to issue application assertion under Windows 2000
    checked-build.

  • Fixed WD_MultiTransfer() to support Delphi.

  • The DriverWizard was fixed to disable generation of XXX_AccessRanges(hXXX)
    functions when the relevant PCI device has no I/O or memory resources at all. This bug
    caused compilation errors when trying to compile generated code for devices with no I/O
    or memory resources.

• Windows NT 4.0 - PCI
  • Fixed the support for interrupt handling on dual CPU platforms. Interrupt line and device
    resources information is now retrieved from the operating system (instead of directly
    from the hardware).

• Windows 9x - PCI
  • Set Auto Masking for non-sharable interrupts only. A bug since v4.42 could have caused
    WD_IntDisable(), when using sharable interrupts, to disable other interrupts as well.

• Linux - General
  • The operation of the function WD_DMALock() for contiguous DMA under Linux was
    fixed. The bug caused the function to reserve one extra page (if the allocation was page
    aligned). This resulted in kernel panic inside kfree (which was observed when the
    following sequence was performed: lock, lock, free, free).

  • Modified user makefiles for compilation under RedHat Linux 7.0 and above.

• Windows - General
  • Fixed a dependency problem between windrvr.sys and wdpnp.sys. A bug since version
    5.03 caused windrvr to return error code 37 (STATUS_INTERNAL_ERROR) if
    wdpnp.sys was loaded before windrvr.sys/vxd. Now, the resource management is
    handled by wdpnp.sys instead of windrvr.sys/vxd and if windrvr.sys/vxd is loaded after
    wdpnp.sys, it will initiate the transfer of the card resources instead of wdpnp.sys.
    Moreover, now wdpnp.sys does not assume that windrvr.sys is loaded and the two files
    open a communication path between them only to perform short operations, and then
    close it. This allows eliminating the dependency between the files and results in an
    improved stability and robustness.

  • Fixed the method wdpnp.sys retrieves the bus number of PCI devices. It now retrieves
    the bus number by directly inquiring the PCI devices, instead of inquiring the Windows
    operating system, since the operating system always returns 0.

  • Fixed IDE to invoke combo box behavior on Windows platforms. The bug caused the
    default IDE to invoke to be "none". Now IDE to invoke is with accordance to the IDE
    chosen by the user to generate project makefiles for; the default IDE to invoke is MS
    Visual C++ 6.0.

• USB
  • The "send to pipe" operation in the DriverWizard was fixed to allow input of long data
    strings (i.e. more than 1024 chars). The bug caused DriverWizard to issue application
    error when long data strings were sent.

  • Timeout expiration was fixed to avoid BSOD if the USB device is no longer connected.

  • WinDriver now uses the operating system's DeviceAddress as a USB uniqueId instead
    of obtaining the Pointer to Device Object (PDO) from the operating system. Now
    WinDriver obtains the PDO only for the purpose of communicating with the USB device
    at the WD_GetConfiguration() and WD_DeviceRegister() stages. The reason is that
    obtaining the PDO is an intrusive operation, which could interfere with the operation of
    other devices drivers.

  • For Isochronous data transfers, now WinDriver sends the last packet in a separate
    transaction, instead of the same transaction. The bug caused, in certain circumstances,
    the operating system USBD to send the last packet twice.

• KernelDriver
  • DriverWizard was fixed to allow the Debug Monitor GUI to run under Linux.

  • Fixed the DriverWizard so that it will generate code with an IOCTL to perform
    WD_License().

Fixes

• General
  • (Since version 5.00). Level sensitive Interrupt acknowledgment via DriverWizard.
    Previously, trying to listen to level sensitive interrupts might have caused hangs.
