    );

Destination

Pointer to the destination of the move.

Source

Pointer to the memory to be copied.

The (Source + Length) can overlap the Destination range passed in to RtlMoveMemory.

Callers of RtlMoveMemory can be running at any IRQL if both memory blocks are resident. Otherwise, the caller must be running at IRQL <= APC_LEVEL.

Requirements

IRQL: Any level (See Comments section)

Headers: Declared in wdm.h. Include wdm.h, ntddk.h, or ntifs.h.
