StartIoRecursion rule (wdm)

The StartIoRecursion rule specifies that if a driver's StartIo routine includes a call to IoStartNextPacket, the driver must first call IoSetStartIoAttributes with the DeferredStartIo attribute set to TRUE. Otherwise, infinite recursion can result.

Driver model: WDM

How to test

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