RE: Oggetto: RE: Driver Verifier &- ExAcquireResourceExclusiveLite

It has always been there. If I recall correctly this requirement was not
documented until the W2K ddk. Ooops.

If you have the IFS kit you will see that filesystems follow this
requirement religiously, so I’m guessing that the consequences of
non-compliance are indeed the eventual bugcheck BSOD feature.

Ok. However this is a new requirement of 2000 or is it already
present in NT4 ?
