I have a setup in which host is win8 and guest on virtual machine is also win8.
Running windbg on host and debuggin guest on virtual machine throgh pipe.

Now i want to analyse how a device stack is built internally for a keboard.
For this when i run !drvobj kbdclass on windbg it doesnt show up any keyboard device object in guest.why?

There is no real keyboard in the VM, so there's no need for a real keyboard
driver. The VM host is supplying keystrokes to the VM through some other
driver. Device Manager might point you toward that.
