Building Windows GplPV drivers using newer WDK?

Building Windows GplPV drivers using newer WDK?

Hello,

I would like to build the GPLPV drivers for Windows HVM, however the
wiki page here:

http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/XenWindowsGplPv/Building

...says that the building is only support on WDK6001, and the problem is
that this WDK doesn't seem to be available for download any longer from
the MS website:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hardware/gg487428/

Anybody has had nay luck with finding the old WDK 6001 somewhere else on
the MS website, or better yet, building the drivers with a newer WDK?

Thanks,
joanna.

And, BTW, can you please, sign the sources?

Some more information and signed drivers available here:

Hope that helps.

Cheers,

Thanks, but I'm interested in getting signed *sources* not signed
binaries...

I must get to updating that documentation, or at least marking it deprecated.

You'll need 6001 to be able to build for Windows 2000, but the rest of the drivers build only with 7600. 7600 is probably the newest version that will work... I believe the Windows 8 is going to be Visual Studio based, which could potentially really suck, but I haven't looked at it yet. Worse still I'll now need 3 DDK's installed to be able to build for all the different platforms!

In addition, you'll need WiX. I build with 3.5, but I don't know what the current version is and if it will work or not.

Let me know how you get on.
