Re: SD card driver development.

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Thanks Henrik.
here i would like to know how my host controller driver is
communicating with the bus and client drivers.
what all i need to do to achieve this target?

thanks,

Check out "\WINCE500\public\common\oak\drivers\sdcard\" for the source
for the sd card related drivers and helper libs.

An example implementation sdhc driver:
"\WINCE500\PLATFORM\MAINSTONEII\src\drivers\sdhc\"

Thanks Henrik for the prompt reply.
i am very confused now.
as these days i have gone through the block driver architecture in
WinCE and prepared to start with the implementation of client drivers.
as i thought only the registry settings have to be changed in host
controller driver.

would you please give me some inputs from your side how to proceed with
my task.
as i am new to this driver development in Windows CE.
and present from where to start?
and if you suggest me to go through some documents for help it will be
a good thing.

thanks,

As I said in the other post you normally only need to implement a host
controller driver that abstracts your hardware to the host controller
driver interface. This way you can utilize the bus and class drivers
that are provided with CE5.

Hi,
I am developing SD card driver for the ARM926EJS processor in winCE 5.0


here i am developing the client driver as a block driver.
can i consider this as an ATA type driver?
whether I have to develop the host controller driver and the bus driver
or not?


thanks,
seshu
