WdfFunctions.idc patch for w8.1 preview

Some time ago I wrote simple script for finding _WDFFUNCTIONS in KMDF based drivers. It seems that Wdf01000.sys!_WDFFUNCTIONS from windows 8.1 preview has some additional fields, so I just added their to my script:

windows 8.1 preview 64bit ntoskrnl.exe exports

How to build subj for windows 64bit ? Offical solutions do not work

perl Configure VC-WIN64A
nmake
makefile(609) : fatal error U1002: syntax error : invalid macro invocation '$'
Stop.

O`k, second way:  
ms\do_win64a.bat
nmake -f ms/nt.mak
...
perl crypto\sha\asm\sha256-586.pl tmp32\sha256-586.asm
Pick one target type from
        elf     - Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris x86, etc.
        a.out   - DJGPP, elder OpenBSD, etc.
        coff    - GAS/COFF such as Win32 targets
        win32n  - Windows 95/Windows NT NASM format
        nw-nasm - NetWare NASM format
        macosx  - Mac OS X
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'C:\Perl\bin\perl.EXE' : return code '0x1'
Stop.


Wtf, why sha256-586 ? Lets check:  
dir /b crypto\sha\asm\*64.pl
sha1-ia64.pl
sha1-x86_64.pl
sha512-ia64.pl
sha512-x86_64.pl


So source tree does not even contain sha256-x86_64.pl !

building botan with openssl

I`ll describe how to build this cool crypto library with openssl with msvc
It seems that configure.py does not allow you to set additional include & library directories for external packets like openssl/zlib etc
So I used dirty hack
First you just must run configure.py:
python configure.py --cc=msvc --cpu=p4 --enable-asm --with-openssl

Now you can just patch generated Makefile:  
CXX           = cl /MD /IC:\work\src\crypto\openssl-0.9.8y\include
LINK_TO       = advapi32.lib C:\work\src\crypto\openssl-0.9.8y\out32\libeay32.lib user32.lib gdi32.lib

You also need to add gdi32.lib bcs it is used in openssl for functions like DeleteDC. So now you are able build both botan.dll and check.exe:
nmake 
nmake check 
check --test
