DeleteDevice rule (wdm)

  • Artikel

The DeleteDevice rule specifies that drivers should not rely on the I/O Manager or PnP Manager to keep the DeviceObject alive after a call to IoDeleteDevice.

Drivers should call IoDeleteDevice after the lower driver has returned. This is the recommended behavior. This rule applies to FDO and FIDO drivers.

When handling an IRP_MN_REMOVE_DEVICE request, the driver should only call IoDeleteDevice after IoCallDriver or PoCallDriver have returned.

Driver model: WDM

How to test

At compile time

Run Static Driver Verifier and specify the DeleteDevice 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.
