Signaling an Application from a Kernel Mode Driver

Hello,

My kernel mode driver (kmdf) needs to signal a user mode application (something asynchronously, like an interrupt). On what way can I do that.

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,

Gerard Harkema

Use the inverted call (pended IOCTL, complete to signal application), which is discussed extensively in the archives.
