Bugcheck when passing IOCTL_MPIO_PASS_THROUGH_PATH_DIRECT on Windows Server 2012 and 64-bit Windows 8

View products that this article applies to.

Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:

You have a Windows Server 2012 or 64-bit Windows 8 system. When a 32-bit application calls DeviceIoControl() and passes the control code IOCTL_MPIO_PASS_THROUGH_PATH_DIRECT a bugcheck error can occur. 

The bugcheck generated is "PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA (50). Invalid system memory was referenced."

Cause

When a 32-bit application running on Windows Server 2012 or 64-bit Windows 8 calls DeviceIoControl(), a bugcheck can occur during translation of the passed 32-bit data buffer to a 64-bit buffer in kernel mode.

Resolution

Compiling the application as a 64-bit application will resolve the problem.
