Figure 2. Sample Windows 2000 Plug and Play device tree for an ACPI system
In Figure 2, a LAN adapter and a USB host controller plug into a PCI bus. A USB
hub plugs into the sole port of the USB host controller. From a Plug and Play
perspective, the PCI bus controller, the USB host controller, and the USB hub are
bus devices because they each provide ports. The LAN adapter is not a bus device.
The following discussion walks through the steps required to build the device tree
shown in Figure 2. The example begins with the objects at the bottom of the stack.
1.
ACPI HAL PDO and FDO
. The ACPI HAL is detected during Setup, and the
root enumerator creates a PDO for the ACPI HAL. The driver creates an FDO,
and the ACPI HAL attaches it to the device stack for ACPI (shown by a curved
arrow in Figure 2).
2.
ACPI PDO and FDO
. The ACPI HAL enumerates ACPI and creates a PDO for
it. The Plug and Play Manager identifies Acpi.sys as the function driver for
ACPI, loads the driver, and passes the PDO to the ACPI driver. The ACPI
