NDIS suggestion

Hi!

Isn't it possible to call NdisIStartAdaper (in ndis/miniport.c) when the
miniport driver recieves an IRP_MJ_PNP/IRP_MN_START_DEVICE request? Right
now it is called from NdisIAddDevice.

This means the miniport device is started before resource lists are assigned
to the NICs device node. NdisMQueryAdaperResources and
NdisMPciAssignResources cannot be implemented oe won't work because of this.

Regards,
Eric

See my ndis_wip_22102004 branch. It's already done there...

I've already implemented NdisMQueryAdaperResources.

Thanks a lot!
I already applied the changes to support multiple PCI buses so Gerard can
test it.
