CompletionRoutineRegistered rule (wdm)
The CompletionRoutineRegistered rule specifies that if the dispatch routine registers an IoCompletion routine using IoSetCompletionRoutineEx, the dispatch routine must thereafter call IoCallDriver or PoCallDriver.
The IoSetCompletionRoutineEx routine allocates memory that remains allocated until the IoCompletion routine executes. Drivers must ensure that their IoCompletion routine executes by calling IoCallDriver or PoCallDriver; otherwise, the kernel will leak memory.
