This wakes up threads that are blocking in KernBlock. The eventid to be specified has to match the eventid used in KernBlock. It is possible to submit a 32 bit return value to the unblocked thread. The number of threads that are unblocked is returned.

Synopsis

APIRET APIENTRY KernWakeup(ULONG eventid, ULONG flags, PULONG tcnt, ULONG retdata);

Parameters

eventid
Event id of the blocked thread(s).
flags
One or more of the following flag bits:
KEE_WAKE_SINGLE - Only wakeup the first matching thread; by default, if multiple threads are waiting, all will be awaking.
KEE_WAKE_PRIOINCR - Run the woke threads with higher priority.
KEE_WAKE_RETDATA - return data value specified to the KernBlock retdata variable. By default, nothing is returned.
tcnt
pointer to an ULONG to return the actual number of threads that were woke. Ignored when NULL.
retdata
Data to be returned to the unblocked threads. Ignored when KEE_WAKE_RETDATA is not set.

Comments

I don't know whether the priority increase issued by KEE_WAKE_PRIOINCR is permanent, or only for the current timeslice. It shouldn't be permanent.
