Kernel-mode Driver Framework __link__
Unlike WDM, which uses raw pointers and structures, KMDF is built on an . Objects are organized hierarchically, with the framework managing their lifetime and memory allocations. Key objects include: WDFDRIVER : Represents the driver itself.
KMDF uses a consistent, ref-counted object model (WDFDEVICE, WDFQUEUE, WDFREQUEST, WDFTIMER, WDFINTERRUPT). Each object supports: kernel-mode driver framework
