My company and I have developed a usb device, which is suitable for the kind
stuff that can be done using Winusb.sys.

While implementing the code using winusb.sys and installing the drivers on
vista x86 -> Win 7 x64 has been a simple task.
Writing and understanding the requirements to an inf-file suitable for win
xp installs has been pretty complicated, in fact
so complicated, that I'm about to give up.

I just followed the numerous examples in win ddk on how the inf file is to
be written.
The first time I realized that something was wrong, was whilst DTM'ing the
driver for whql submission.

My question is: What should be done to the inf-file below, to satisfy xp,
chkinf and WLK?

You cannot make a WinUSB-based INF file that passes chkinf for XP. To use
WinUSB, you have to needs/include WinUSB.INF, and in XP that's not a
standard INF file.

I believe there is a DTM exception for this. You should contact WHQL about
it.

This is what I have realized - But there aren't any exceptions in the
filters for this.

I have a hack that seems to fix it, but I dare not submit it to whql:

Simply put a "dummy" winusb.inf into the windows\inf directory on the
xp-machine and rerun
the test.

I've read Peter Wielands blog on the subject. An tried doing another
inf-file that navigate "run-time" to another
section of the inf-file for xp and fixes the coInstaller issues with the DDK
samples.
(http://blogs.msdn.com/peterwie/archive/2007/01/10/fixing-the-umdf-usb-samples-to-install-both-on-xp-vista.aspx)

But the check that chkinf does is static or rather it tries all
"Install-paths" and not just the one for xp.

Anybody else in here who has a solution? Or nows howto persuade whql to
ignore the chkinf problem?!

I'm happy to inform the group, that the exception is back in the DTM
filters. Now WLK 1.5 allows winusb to be used in xp drivers
