Hi
In IFS documentation it is mentioned that KeWaitForSingleObject should not
wait for a nonzero interval at IRQL = DISPATCH_LEVE. KeDelayExecutionThread
should be running at IRQL <= APC_LEVEL.
Is there a way that i could delay the thread execution at DISPATCH_LEVEL??
Regards,
\Vishnu.
You better look at *ExInitializeWorkItem*. Work queues are for queuing items
to be served on a worker thread.
you can queue a work item with *DelayedWorkQueue *or *CriticalWorkQueue *to
set a priority for the specific item.
the worker thread will be in running at PASSIVE IRQ level so you will be
able to wait for inifite time.
Hope thats help

You cannot. You must schedule a callback to be called later instead.

No. Any waiting function at DISPATCH_LEVEL will bugcheck the system.
You must do it without waiting.
