completion routine and waiting

NTDEV
1

Hi,

I need to do passive level stuff in my completion
routine. I’ve created a thread to do my work. However,
I want my completion routine to wait for the thread to
complete. Since kewaitforsingleobject runs at passive
level, are there any other options?

If I cannot wait, what I should I do to indicate
the irp is not actually complete. Would returning
status_more_processing_required be sufficient?

Yes.
Handle the IRP to your passive level thread, which will call
IoCompleteRequest again on it.

Are there other kinds of threads?
