PowerDownAllocate rule (wdm)

The PowerDownAllocate rule specifies that an FDO and FIDO driver should not allocate memory when processing an IRP_MN_SET_POWER request for a SystemPowerState transition that goes from s0 to [S1...S5].

This rule only applies to FDO and FIDO drivers.

Driver model: WDM

How to test

At compile time
Run Static Driver Verifier and specify the PowerDownAllocate rule. Use the following steps to run an analysis of your code: Prepare your code (use role type declarations). Run Static Driver Verifier. View and analyze the results. For more information, see Using Static Driver Verifier to Find Defects in Drivers.
