wdt

Motivation

This tool is used to streamline windows driver development for WDK 7. I built this tool because the process of debugging windows drivers is horrendous - at least for me. The flow for driver debugging currently goes like this:

1. Boot development VM
2. Compile windows driver
3. Manually move driver components to C:\windows\system32
4. Reboot
5. Repeat 1

The whole process takes at least 5 minutes each time I want to debug a device driver. No bueno.

Here's the process I hope to accomplish with this tool:

1. Navigate to source directory for device driver on dev computer
2. Build with wdt build
3. Repeat 2

WDT would handle all the heavy work by booting the VM, compiling, moving the source to system32, and providing console logging for DbgPrint.

Features

• Boot, build, and copy target device driver
• Console logging for DgbPrint

Requirements

• node.js
• WDK 7
• VMWare Fusion
• SSH Server for Windows (freeSSHd)
• Mac OSX

Setup

1. Create a file called -wdt with the following contents:

HOST=10.0.1.13
USER=root ; ssh username 
PASS=pass ; ssh password 

1. Bootup your virtual machine
2. run wdt build in the directory where you saved your wdt file
