I often end up looking at dumps wishing I knew why certain threads were
waiting. The wait reason is diplayed, but I haven’t found any place that
describes their intended use. I can guess for most of them, but does
anyone know of a reference where they are all described?
typedef enum _KWAIT_REASON {
Executive,
FreePage,
PageIn,
PoolAllocation,
DelayExecution,
Suspended,
UserRequest,
WrExecutive,

WrSuspended,
WrUserRequest,

} KWAIT_REASON;
