NdisAllocateMemoryWithTagPriority rule (ndis)

  • Article

The NdisAllocateMemoryWithTagPriority rule specifies that a driver must not call NdisAllocateMemoryWithTagPriority without providing a Tag.

Every memory allocation should use a unique pool tag to ensure that kernel debuggers and Driver Verifier can identify a distinct allocated block of memory.

Driver model: NDIS

How to test

At compile time

Run Static Driver Verifier and specify the NdisAllocateMemoryWithTagPriority 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.
