SignalEventInCompletion rule (wdm)

The SignalEventInCompletion rule specifies that when processing an asynchronous IRP, the driver needs to call the KeSetEvent in the completion routine when the Irp->PendingReturned flag is set.

In this case, the completion routine will not be called.

Driver model: WDM

How to test

At compile time

Run Static Driver Verifier and specify the SignalEventInCompletion rule.

Use the following steps to run an analysis of your code:
  1. Prepare your code (use role type declarations).
  2. Run Static Driver Verifier.
  3. View and analyze the results.

For more information, see Using Static Driver Verifier to Find Defects in Drivers.
