From: gti4ever on 7 Jan 2010 05:12 Hi Doron, The spinlock worked. However, now I am facing another issue. It seems like my way of implementing the ISO continuous reader is not cencel-safe. Since I am using driver created requests to read ISO stream, can I create a manual queue and forward all the driver created requests to it and let framework handles all the cancellation stuff? Thanks. G.

From: gti4ever on 8 Jan 2010 10:05 Sorry Doron, one last question. I implemented the cancel function to cancel all the iso read requests and everything seems to be ok and all the request objects got deleted at the end. Now I found one critical issue. when I unplug my USB device when my iso continuous reader is still reading, I can use D0Exit to cancel all the pending read request and that seems to work ok and Windbg lm command shows the driver got unloaded. However, after this, if I plug back in my USB device and start the iso read again, my driver crashes immediately. The minidump shows the driver crashed either when my continuous reader trying to save the iso stream to the buffer in device context or when the IoRead is trying to read the data from that buffer. I have only managed to reproduce this once or twice. According to Windbg, all the buffer pointers seems to be reasonable, definitely not NULL. What could cause this problem? Is it possible my driver is not unloaded correctly and driver end up using some invalid/old context? Thanks. G.

no idea what is going here unless you have stale pointers floating around in your code and you are touching the old context from the now unplugged device. do you have any global variables where you are storing WDF objects or pointers? -- This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
