Hi doron,
Want some information regarding the attachment of device object of battery
mini class driver how the stack will look like, where will the miniport
driver will attached , will it be enumerated by the battery class driver
(battc.sys) or it will be attached to acpi driver.
Please suggest.

Did you do any looking at all before you asked the question?

The ACPI driver will enumerate the battery. Your driver will consist of
the battery class driver plus your miniclass, which calls into the
battery class driver to handle requests.
Doron has stated several times over the past few years that the battery
miniclass driver is no longer the approved method of handling batteries
(although I’ve never seen that in writing). The functions should all be
handled by ACPI.

Hi Tim,
Its for windows 8.1 there is a need for this.
I need some more help , I am not able to open the device by using create
file it is returning the
ERROR_INVALID_FUNCTION while using createfile.
I am registering the device under the battery class and the enumerator is
ACPI.
I am not sure how the flow work in this case please can you point out what
can be wrong.
The following code i am using .
// Returned value includes GBS_HASBATTERY if the system has a
// non-UPS battery, and GBS_ONBATTERY if the system is running on
// a battery.
//
// dwResult & GBS_ONBATTERY means we have not yet found AC power.
// dwResult & GBS_HASBATTERY means we have found a non-UPS battery.
DWORD dwResult = GBS_ONBATTERY;
// IOCTL_BATTERY_QUERY_INFORMATION,
// enumerate the batteries and ask each one for information.
HDEVINFO hdev =
SetupDiGetClassDevs(&GUID_DEVCLASS_BATTERY,
0,
0,
DIGCF_PRESENT | DIGCF_DEVICEINTERFACE);
if (INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE != hdev)
{
// Limit search to 100 batteries max
for (int idev = 0; idev < 100; idev++)
{
SP_DEVICE_INTERFACE_DATA did = {0};
did.cbSize = sizeof(did);
if (SetupDiEnumDeviceInterfaces(hdev,
0,
&GUID_DEVCLASS_BATTERY,
idev,
&did))
{
DWORD cbRequired = 0;
SetupDiGetDeviceInterfaceDetail(hdev,
&did,
0,
0,
&cbRequired,
0);
if (ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER == GetLastError())
{
PSP_DEVICE_INTERFACE_DETAIL_DATA pdidd =
(PSP_DEVICE_INTERFACE_DETAIL_DATA)LocalAlloc(LPTR,
cbRequired);
if (pdidd)
{
pdidd->cbSize = sizeof(*pdidd);
if (SetupDiGetDeviceInterfaceDetail(hdev,
&did,
pdidd,
cbRequired,
&cbRequired,
0))
{
// Enumerated a battery. Ask it for information.
m_hBattery = CreateFile(pdidd->DevicePath,
GENERIC_READ | GENERIC_WRITE,
FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE,
NULL,
OPEN_EXISTING,
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL,
NULL);
if (INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE != m_hBattery)

As I understand, everything that can be done in a battery miniclass
driver can be handled directly by ACPI with no driver involvement at
all. However, this is not my primary area of expertise.

Do you see your driver being loaded? Are you calling IoCreateDevice?
Are you calling BatteryClassInitializeDevice? Does it return success?

Hi Tim,
Driver gets loaded and BatteryClassInitializeDevice return SUCCESS. I am
calling WdfDeviceCreate which return SUCCESS.
I am not sure what is wrong.
