ReqSendWhileSpinlock rule (kmdf)

The ReqSendWhileSpinlock rule specifies that no requests are sent while the driver holds a spinlock.

If the driver sends any requests while it holds a spinlock, it could cause a deadlock or clash with the lower driver that receives the requests, if the lower driver also attempts to acquire a lock or access shared resources.

Driver model: KMDF

How to test

At compile time

Run Static Driver Verifier and specify the ReqSendWhileSpinlock 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.
