Due to my family presence, I need to stop the Test KVM AHK bot during this week end.I have good news regarding CORE-14536 and sound in general.
"I'll be back." Kind regards, Sylvain Petreolle

Hello Sylvain,
Test KVM AHK is offline since
"about 1 day ago (2018-Apr-25 18:27:36)".
Thanks.
--
1) I thought certain MDL fast I/O routines can get called at DISPATCH_LEVEL
2) For perf reasons, causing a page-fault in the middle of a "fast I/O" is
probably a bad idea.
That being said -- these concerns seem silly since we are talking about the
"Null" driver which... is entirely PAGED_CODE and clearly neither #1 or #2
are actual issues.
In Windows, the fast I/o table is part of the DEVICE_OBJECT itself. Not
sure why our driver allocates a separate pool allocation to begin with.
Best regards,
Alex Ionescu

Hi all!
Let me invite you to the April 2018 meeting, taking place this Thursday,
April 26, 2018 at 19:00 UTC.
There have been no requests for additional agenda points yet and I'm not
aware of any developments of the outstanding points of last meeting, so
right now the agenda only includes the Status Updates.
If there is something you want discussed this month, please reply to
this mail.
As waiting for every developer's Status Report still wastes too much
time each month, I'm asking everyone to prepare a short text in advance.
Unlike previous meetings, let's all try to post our status updates
simultaneously this time and let the IRC server handle the congestion.
This may make some reports harder to read, but we should be able to move
on much quicker.
Best regards,
Colin
