Hi,

Is there is any document/link/list available of WDF API's and also is there
any info available WDF API vs WDM API, I guess, this would be very much
useful, while porting the driver from WDM/NT model to WDF driver.

I am looking some alternative WDF API's for below WDM Api's:
KeWaitForSingleObject
IoSetCancelRoutine

Is WdfWaitlockCreate can be used instead of KeInitializeMutex?
Is WdfSpinlockCreate can be used instead of WdfSpinlockCreate?

Thanks,
Prafulla

a WDFWAITLOCK uses a KEVENT, not a mutex (which is recursively acquirable)
a WDFSPINLOCK uses a KSPIN_LOCK.

you should read the link that don sent

Hi Don,

I had gone through that link earlier, it was a good one to start, but what i
observed what, it was not covering all of the API's, if you have any other
source, which lists all of the WDF Api's or portable API's from WdM to WDF,
could you send me please?

Thanks,
Prafulla

As far as I know there is no more information. Consider that even though
KMDF runs on top of the WDM envronment, the models have significant
differences. This was done, for the simple reason that as WDM grew its
complexity grew even faster.
