Re: SD card driver development.

thanks Henrik,
here i would like to know, how my card read and write operation is
done.
i have gone through the PXA27x code for SD card,i have not seen any
where the read/write operation for the same. whether i have to do any
modifications for Client driver to peform the same.
and also how my driver is loaded?
thanks,
seshu

You need to read the docs and look at the sourcecode. It is practically
impossible to answer this kind of general question about such complex
architecture over a medium such as a usnet group.

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?

Read "Developing a Device Driver > Windows CE Drivers > Secure Digital
Card Drivers" in the PB5 help.

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
