By Component:

Component:  AFD

• 090529_KB971044 - Host name may not be resolved correctly because DNS request is sent to an incorrect adapter.

• 090629_KB972305 - A problem initializing the socket for one network interface would cause the name resolution code to abort the query instead of using other available interfaces.

• 090630_KB971882 - This update addresses the issue with unability to resolve names via LLMNR when DNS Server is present. REG_DWORD value HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\AFD\DnsManagedNet controls this behavior. If it not present, or if it is set to a non-zero value, then the previous behavior still applies. If it is set to zero, then LLMNR and/or WINSBC will be used even when a server responds with "Name not found".

Component:  Bluetooth

• 071005_KB942015 - This update enables better interoperability with other devices supporting AV profiles (AVDTP, AVCTP).

• 080124_KB947487 - After an ABORT request, a DISCOVER request may not get processed correctly and result in some issues.

• 080124_KB947493 - SDP's internal hCallerProc member does not initialize hCallerProc to zero and may result in an error.

• 081125_KB959618 - This update addresses an issue that may occur if a request comes from a device with 255 characters long name.

• 081205_KB959679 - This update addresses an issue with certain keyboards not sending proper data to the phone from the keyboard when the CAPS LOCK button is pressed.

Component:  Bluetooth HID Host Profile

• 090806_KB974136 - This update addresses issues with the HID Virtual Cable PTS tests: C_HOS_HCR_BV_03_I and TC_HOS_HCR_BV_04_I.

Note:

Do not call DeactivateDevice on the HID driver immediately after issuing BTHHID_IOCTL_HIDDisconnect - the driver will disconnect both L2CAP links as it unloads, and potentially cause issues with virtually cabled devices and the associated qualification tests. When using the btenum sample, you may need to insert a Sleep() call after sending BTHHID_IOCTL_HIDDisconnect to allow the remote device time to gracefully disconnect.

Component:  CETK

• 080206_KB947827 - A new surface type has been added to the CETK test cases that represents a System Memory surface with the flag DDSCAPS_OWNDC turned on.

• 090811_KB973814 - This update installs some updated CETK tests.

Component:  Codecs

• 090413_KB968971 - This update enables dual channel MPEG audio.

The registry key to handle dual channel MPEG audio playback:

[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\DirectX\DirectShow\MPEGAudio]
"DualMode"=dword:<value>
 

Where the value is:

 

0 - enable dual channel playback
1 - left channel only
2 - right channel only

The default value is 1.

Component:  COMM

• 081013_KB958183 - Insufficient size of DNS Transaction ID may allow Delegation Spoofing.

• 081028_KB958342 - This update disables the generation of Magic Number configuration requests, so no magic number will be configured and the Echo Requests sent with Magic Number 0 will be acceptable.

• 080530_KB952777 - This update addresses the following issues:

• Enables transformation of a domain name into the name of the domain controller to service the requests when DHCP 119 option is enabled to improve user authentication.

• Resolves some issues that may occur when resolving domain names to domain controller names.

• Adds an ability to specify NetBIOS preference when resolving the name of a domain controller in a specified domain.

            The following registry key enables this fix:

 

                [HKLM\COMM\DomainDiscovery]
                "UseNetbiosLast"=dword:1

 

       If the registry key is not set, NetBIOS is queried first and when fails, LDAP is queried afterwards. When the registry key is set and set to

       a non-zero value, LDAP is queried first and when fails, NetBIOS is queried afterwards.

Component:  LDAP

• 080805_KB955251 - Chase referrals in the form of domain names may not get converted to fully qualified host names.

Component:  MSFLASH

• 080411_KB951076 - If block 0 is marked as reserved, then the block will not be skipped properly and will get erased.

The reserved blocks must be contiguous, except for bad blocks.  The first non-reserved, non-bad block is the start location that the flash MDD manages (the start location contains a bad block table, followed by partition table).  The flash MDD will already reserve some blocks for backup in case blocks go bad.  If a customer wants backup blocks for the reserved blocks, then the backup blocks will also need to be marked reserved.

In order to create reserved areas in flash outside of the very beginning, a reserved partition needs to be created by specifying the FLASH_PARTITION_FLAG_RESERVED flag to CreatePartition (IOCTL_FLASH_CREATE_PARTITION).  This partition will be ignored by the OS.  When partitions are created, the logical block count of the partition size has to be specified, and the partitions need to be put in the next free available space, skipping bad blocks.  Exact physical block locations cannot be specified for partitions because this makes handling bad blocks more complicated. 

• 080606_KB953396 - The FormatStore function may not correctly format a single region when multiple flash regions are present.

• 081105_KB959247 - Warning messages cannot be turned off in ship builds.

Component:  Network Projector

• 080919_KB956842 - Windows Vista's Network Projector is not able to connect to Windows Embedded CE 6.0 Network Projector device if none of the resolutions that it supports are part of capability blob. This update allows optional customization registry, for example, 800x600 to be send along in capability blob. This makes Network Projector connection succeed, however it does not change the resolution of the Windows Embedded CE 6.0 Network Projector.  

Registry entries need to be added to support OEM request for custom entries in capabilities blob.
OEM can specify 1-3 resolutions using the following:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\PictorService\OEMCustomization]

"ScreenWidth1" = dword:XX
"ScreenHeight1" = dword:YY
"ScreenWidth2" = dword:XX
"ScreenHeight2" = dword:YY
"ScreenWidth3" = dword:XX
"ScreenHeight3" = dword:YY

Where the dword XX and YY are numbers in hex.

For example:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\PictorService\OEMCustomization]
"ScreenWidth1" = dword:320
"ScreenHeight1" = dword:258

Component:  SQL Compact

• 080730_KB956361 - Integration of SQL Compact 3.5 SP1 into Platform Builder 6.0.

Overview:

SQL Compact update provides SQL Compact 3.5 SP1 functionality in a new catalog item.  This new catalog item is in the “Application and Services Development” node next to the “Speech Interface” catalog.  Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 SP1 should be used for developing applications for SQL Compact 3.5 SP1.

Details:

The SQL Compact catalog item group contains the following items:

• SQL Compact
  • This catalog item corresponds to the SQL Compact native components for Windows Embedded CE 6.0. Selecting this item would allow users to run native C++ applications (OLEDB) on the target Windows Embedded CE 6.0 board.
• SQL Compact Managed Provider
  • This catalog item corresponds to the System.Data.Sqlserverce managed data provider for .NET Compact Framework. Selecting this item would allow users to run managed C# or VB .NET applications using the System.Data.Sqlserverce namespace. This catalog item adds SQL Compact native components and .NET CF v2.0 by default to the target Windows Embedded CE 6.0 image.  .NET CF v3.5 is available as Platform Builder catalog item for Windows CE 6.0.  If Users want to select .NET CF v3.5 instead of .NET CF v2.0 which SQL Compact Managed Provider selects by default refer section “Adding support for .NET CF v3.5”.
• SQL Server Managed Provider
  • This catalog item corresponds to the System.Data.Sqlclient managed data provider. Selecting this item would allow users to run managed C# or VB .NET applications using the System.Data.Sqlclient namespace. This catalog item adds .NET CF v2.0 to the target Windows Embedded CE 6.0 image.  .NET CF v3.5 is available as Platform Builder catalog item for Windows Embedded CE 6.0.  If Users want to select .NET CF v3.5 instead of .NET CF v2.0 which SQL Compact Managed Provider selects by default refer section “Adding support for .NET CF v3.5”.

Adding support for .NET Compact Framework v3.5:

·        Users can add support for .NET CF v3.5 in two ways.  In sqlcompact.bat under “%_WINCEROOT%\public\cebase\oak\misc\” change the following lines from “if not "%SYSGEN_DOTNETV2_HEADLESS%"=="1" set SYSGEN_DOTNETV2=1” to “if not "%SYSGEN_DOTNETV35_HEADLESS%"=="1" set SYSGEN_DOTNETV35=1”.  Or from the catalog items view in PB remove .NET CF v2.0 and select .NET CF v3.5.

·        .NET CF v3.5 is available as a Platform Builder 6.0 update.  More information for .NET CF v3.5 is provided here - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947561.

Installation Instruction:

 

1.     Close Visual Studio 2005, IDE for PB 6.0.

2.     Run the update.

3.     Run Visual Studio 2005 and add the new SQL Compact Catalog item to your workspace.

Component:  SQLCE

• 071119_KB944046 - This update addresses a memory leak.

• 090821_KB973144 - Windows Embedded CE 6.0 TCP Send/Receive throughput optimization.

A new thread is introduced to process TCP send packets which runs at same priority as NDIS thread.
For this solution to work NDIS and the new thread should be at same priority in your miniport driver.

If it needs to be changed, it should be done by changing it thru existing registry setting, so that both threads can be at same priority.

Existing registry for NDIS thread priority:

     [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\NDIS]
     "Priority256"=dword:74     // default priority is 116 (hex 74)

New registries are being introduced.
Enhanced TCP is on by default. Following registry key turns it off:

     [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Tcpip\Parms]
     "EnhanceTCPSend"=dword:0     // Turn off enhanced TCP send

For each platform these two registries need to be tuned. With proper tuning of these two parameters, maximum TCP send throughput can be achieved..
Start with default value. Increase the buffer size and decrease the wakeup interval.

     [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Tcpip\Parms]
     "SendThreadWakeupInterval"=dword:4     //Send thread wakeup interval. This interval is used for send thread to sleep before it send out the packets.

It helps to accumulate the packets and send them in one shot. Default is 4 ms. Maximum value is 10ms and minimum is 1ms.

     [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\AFD]
     "TCPSendQuota"= dword:10000     // 64K by default. This is the maximum buffer AFD can use to send packets. Max is 512K and Min is 16K

TCP Receive registry setting.
The new TCP receive code attempts for a "short path" from ARP to TCP receive. It cuts lots of instructions in the path. By default it is turned on.

Use following registry to turn off this feature:

     [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Tcpip\Parms]
     "AttemptFastPath"=dword:0     // Turn off fast path

Component:  TimeSVC

• 080930_KB958080 - Some Time Zone data is out of date resulting in incorrect DST transition. This update also adds a number of new time zones.

• 081223_KB960786 - Some of Time Zone data is out of date resulting in incorrect DST transition time being wrong for some of the time zones. A number of new time zones is also added.

• 090714_KB971994 - This update adds new time zones (Paraguay, UTC, Kamchatka, and Magadan), corrects time zone display strings, and updates TZI data to reflect current governmental DST timings.

Component:  Tools

• 081110_KB958805 - This update addresses the issue with Heaplist CEDebugX extension returning an error.

• 081124_KB959879 - Platform Builder 6.0 may be reading uncommited memory pages. With this update, Platform Builder 6.0 will check to make sure the valid bit is set on the page table entry.

Component:  UDFS

• 071010_KB943074 - An error may occur if a component of a path does not exist.

Component:  Unimodem

• 081020_KB955238 - This update makes registry configuration for unimodem DCCRequest and DCCResponse command strings configurable.

  If there is a device specific setting, it overrides any system-wide setting. If there is a system-wide setting, it overrides hardcoded defaults. The system-wide registry location for the new settings is:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Unimodem\Settings]

“DCCRequest”

“DCCResponse”

The string value to use for these needs to be set to whatever the server expects. If a server that responds to the “CLIENT” connection request with “SERVER” instead of the standard “CLIENTSERVER”, CE client would set DCCResponse to “SERVER”. If the server does not exchange strings for connection setup, the CE client would set DCCRequest and DCCResponse to an empty string.

 

As an example, the device specific settings for the direct cable connect TAPI/Unimodem device on a CEPC’s COM1: would be under

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\Serial1\Unimodem\Settings]

Component:  URLMON

• 080428_KB951304 - If the attached device sends a configuration descriptor without any interfaces in it, the USB driver may cause an access violation.

• 081020_KB958780 - USB driver may issue RESET when port is not connected.

• 081013_KB958341 - USB Host Controller Driver for the EHCI host controller assumed that any device connected to its root port was high speed. This caused some low speed devices to not work.

• 090410_KB969745 - USB Interface descriptor may be parsed incorrectly.
