does anyone have any experience with the Palm [composite driver]? Or
at least, could anyone help up with handling this driver under
Windows? As said earlier, I'm trying to create mass storage + RNDIS
composite gadget and so need Windows driver which would handle that.

Exactly, however, as we are trying to create a custom made composite
gadget which will support several functions, we probably won't be able to
use any existing drivers. This is why, I'm wondering whether creating a
Windows driver (ie. inf file) for a multi-function device is an easy
(copy-and-paste preferable) task. Note that we are not developing any new
protocol or anything -- just
We tried to use some vendor and product IDs that the Palm composite gadget
had hardcoded hoping Windows will treat our device as Palm's device but
nothing seemed to work.
Also, while testing various gadget, standard mass storage in particular,
the following issue has arisen. Windows detects the device and shows it
as a mass storage device in Device Manager, however, no volume appears
in My Computer. The same device, connected to Linux works properly.
you need to tell the driver which backing storage to use:
# modprobe g_file_storage file=/dev/anything-goes-here
should do it.
It turned out that passing removable=1 made it work. Without it, Windows
tried to find partitions on the device and as our test file had no
partition table Windows found none and so shows nothing in My Computer.
With removable=1, Windows treats the drive as like other removable media
(CDs, floppies) and shows it as a drive not looking for any partitions.
