Windows Driver Kit (WDK) Documentation Blog

First of all, congrats for the "regular updates" idea. WDK documentation shouldn't be the well-hidden, always-outdated thing it's been in the past.

Moving to Document Explorer was probably not the greatest idea -- it's slow and slow and doesn't have the custom filters the old technologies used by VS6 and MSDN Library had. Please bring that back (for everything: MSDN, VS, WDK. Killing three birds with one stone!)

I have trouble getting the WDK doc "integrated" in the whole "Document Explorer world." I do get a new subtree under "Win32" but the search doesn't seem to find what I want. I have opened a thread on the msdn.general (and other -- xposted ;-( forums, you might want to join there, or follow-up here if you prefer. There's another thread about DE's "Local Help" search being slower than "Online" search, but this is probably not under *your* umbrella.

KeSetSystemAffinityThread and KeRevertToUserAffinityThreadEx functions are documented very bad.

The "variable that receives a bitmap" is ambiguous. What means the "receives"? Usually it means a variable passed by reference to be altered by a function but this argument is passed by value. Much better is to write "variable that represents", "variable specifies" and something like.

The "system affinity" term used here means a temporary, system-only affinity but in Win32, it means a system active processor set.
