Serenum enumerates Plug-n-Play RS-232 devices that are compliant with the current revision of Plug and Play External COM Device. The specification is available at http://www.microsoft.com/hwdev/download/respec/pnpcom.rtf.
It loads as an upper filter driver to many different RS-232 device drivers that are compliant with its requirements and performs this service for them.
To build the sample, run the build command. Once built, the sample produces one binary: Serenum.sys. The sample is 64-bit compliant, works on both x86 and Alpha platforms, and supports both Plug and Play and Power Management. There is no one Inf for serenum because it is loaded as a filter driver in different driver stacks. An example of this can be found in %WINDIR%\inf\msports.inf.
