DoubleCompletion rule (kmdf)

  • Article

The DoubleCompletion rule specifies that drivers must not complete an I/O request twice. The following methods should not be called twice in a row for the same request: WdfRequestComplete, WdfRequestCompleteWithInformation, WdfRequestCompleteWithPriorityBoost.

The difference between this rule and the DoubleCompletionLocal rule is that the DoubleCompletionLocal rule is only performed within the default I/O queue callback functions.

Driver model: KMDF

How to test

At compile time

Run Static Driver Verifier and specify the DoubleCompletion rule.

Use the following steps to run an analysis of your code:
  1. Prepare your code (use role type declarations).
  2. Run Static Driver Verifier.
  3. View and analyze the results.
