- detecting system shutdown
- Posted by Elbit Dev on August 1st, 2004
Hi All,
I need to detect a system shutdown event in mass storage
device driver. I can't use dispatchShutdown.
is there anyway I can make a query for windows status.
thanks.

Track IRP_MJ_POWER/System/Set/S5.
Note that MJ_SHUTDOWN is sent when the filesystems is still usable, and the
power IRP is not - you cannot do file work from the power IRP going to S5.

I don't get IRP_MJ_POWER on system shutdown.
if registering MJ_SHUTDOWN windows call the dispatch
function but not finishing the shutdown process. our
systems configure to shutdown to the "it's now safe to
turn off your computer" screen.
