A Microprocessor Driver Definition (MDD) file contains directives for customizing software drivers. This document describes the MDD format and the parameters that can be used to customize drivers.

Requirements

Each device driver has an MDD file and a Tool Command Language (Tcl) file associated with it. The MDD file is used by the Tcl file to customize the driver, depending on different options configured in the MSS file. For more information on the MSS file format, see Microprocessor Software Specification (MSS).

The driver source files and the MDD file for each driver must be located at specific directories in order to find the files and the drivers. This document describes the MDD format and the parameters that can be used to customize drivers.
