With the caveat that I have never programmed UMDF my understanding is that they are just a UM DLL so a variable in a shared section should work as a global right?

Thanks again, Mr. Wieland.
Might I suggest a doc bug to note under WdfDriverCreate that specifying a Context area for a WDFDRIVER Object with UMDF 2 might not act as expected?
In fact, would it not make sense to actually PREVENT folks from specifying a Context area for a WDFDRIVER (logging something to the log and returning an error to WdfDriverCreate), to avoid what is certainly a difficult to understand problem that’s unique to UMDF? That really would be an insidious problem to find.
