IoBuildDeviceIoControlSetEvent rule (wdm)

The IoBuildDeviceIoControlSetEvent rule specifies that a driver that calls IoBuildDeviceIoControlRequest must not call KeSetEvent if the driver supplies a pointer to a caller-allocated and initialized event object. The KeSetEvent does not need to be called by the driver for this IRP.

Driver model: WDM

How to test

At compile time
Run Static Driver Verifier and specify the IoBuildDeviceIoControlSetEvent 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.
