Claim 15:
16. A system comprising:
a processor; and
a plug-and-play (PnP) driver implemented on a computing device, the PnP driver being operated by a processor of the computing device to:
receive a message listing at least one enumerated bus device that is connected to the computing device;
determine, by the PnP driver, whether the at least one enumerated bus device belongs to a device class; and
based at least in part on the determining, attaching the PnP driver as an upper-device filter or a lower-device filter in a device stack associated with the at least one enumerated bus device, wherein the at least one enumerated bus device is associated with multiple device stacks, and the PnP driver attaches as an upper-device filter in at least one device stack of the multiple device stacks and as a lower-device filter in at least another device stack of the multiple device stacks.
