Is it possible to simulate KeAcquire/ReleaseInterruptSpinLock in Win2K?
Thanks

Use KeSynchronizeExecution instead.

Why not just use KeSynchronizeExecution? There is no easy (or safe) way of
doing the new calls in Win2k.

I have used KeSynchronizeExecution() all along. But
KeAcquire/ReleaseInterruptSpinLock would simplify my code. I am not sure
about the performance though. DDK says “It is generally faster to use
KeSynchronizeExecution to synchronize access than to use
KeAcquireInterruptSpinLock and KeReleaseInterruptSpinLock.”, but there’s a
SynchRoutine in KeSynchronizeExecution().
