Yeah good point about the SMP variant Thomas, I hadn't taken that into consideration.
When I get a free minute, I'll update the code (and various other sections that access
attached devices) to use the spinlock

Also in NT6+, the kernel seems to always be multiprocessor. And yes, the
KeAcquire(queued)SpinLock becomes KeRaiseIrql in a SP kernel. Finally, directly using the
correct function (AcquireSpinLock) would be better to know have to hack again the kernel
to add support for MP afterwards. Better do it correctly now.

To answer Ged's worry, I don't think here people would get angry, since that
spinlock is also used there:
https://git.reactos.org/?p=reactos.git&a=search&h=HEAD&st=grep&…
(see iomgr/file.c and volume.c) .

I think this might be an SP/MP difference?
Would make sense if KeAcquireSpinLock inside an SP kernel becomes KeRaiseIrql. But even
for a 2003 MP kernel this would serve no purpose.

It depends on whether we want to emulate the 2k3

I noticed in my 2k3 fltmgr testing that IoEnumerateDeviceObjectList
runs at DPC for the entirety of the function. This was changed in the
NT6 kernel to use a lock, which is indeed the LockQueueIoDatabaseLock Hermes mentioned.
I'm happy to use the spinlock (and would prefer to myself), but any
move towards NT6 normally results in an angry email, so I opted for
the 2k3 approach ;)

Yes this should be a spinlock involved instead, for example the
"LockQueueIoDatabaseLock" (queued) spinlock that we already use in
other places in the code.

Uhm... raising the IRQL is not a synchronization mechanism. Should
there be a spinlock involved?
