Hello,
Do you know how can I purge the cache for a given file and re-read this file from the disk?

I believe, calling ZwCreateFile with FILE_NO_INTERMEDIATE_BUFFERING flag set
will do the trick.
As far as I remember, if that flag is set FSD will purge the file cache as
part of the create request handling.

It’s impossible if the file is also mapped in the user space by file
mapping.
In other case, CcPurgeCacheSection helps.

Max,
I was thinking the same but the next function doesn’t work. Can somebody
explains me why after everything is successfull? It seems that the purge is
OK but the file is not re-read from the disk. It’s obtained again from the
cache.

Have tried to set CcPurgeCacheSection last parameter to TRUE ?
I figure out that CcUninitializeCacheMap will do the same but…
Inaki.
