Bug Check 0x15E: BUGCODE_NDIS_DRIVER_LIVE_DUMP

NDIS_BUGCHECK_WATCHDOG

An attempt to manage the network stack has taken too long. When NDIS calls out into other drivers, NDIS starts a watchdog timer to ensure the call completes promptly. If the call takes too long, NDIS injects a bugcheck.

This can be caused by a simple deadlock. Look with "!stacks 2 ndis" or similar to see if any threads look suspicious. Pay special attention to the PrimaryThread from the NDIS_WATCHDOG_TRIAGE_BLOCK.

This can be caused by lost NBLs, in which case !ndiskd.pendingnbls may help. Check for OIDs that are stuck using !ndiskd.oid.

• 0x01 : NDIS_BUGCHECK_WATCHDOG_PROTOCOL_PAUSE

  There was a timeout while pausing a protocol driver.

  There was a timeout while pausing a filter driver.

• 0x12 : NDIS_BUGCHECK_WATCHDOG_FILTER_NETPNPEVENT

  There was a timeout while delivering a NET_PNP_EVENT_NOTIFICATION to a filter driver.

• 0x13 : NDIS_BUGCHECK_WATCHDOG_FILTER_STATUS_INDICATION

  There was a timeout while delivering a status indication to a filter driver.

• 0x14 : NDIS_BUGCHECK_WATCHDOG_FILTER_DETACH

  There was a timeout while detaching a filter driver.

• 0x21 : NDIS_BUGCHECK_WATCHDOG_MINIPORT_PAUSE

  There was a timeout while pausing a miniport adapter.

• 0x22 : NDIS_BUGCHECK_WATCHDOG_MINIPORT_HALT

  There was a timeout while halting a miniport adapter.

• 0x23 : NDIS_BUGCHECK_WATCHDOG_MINIPORT_OID

  There was a timeout while delivering an OID request to a miniport adapter.

• 0x24 : NDIS_BUGCHECK_WATCHDOG_FILTER_OID

  There was a timeout while delivering an OID request to a filter driver.

• 0x25 : NDIS_BUGCHECK_WATCHDOG_MINIPORT_IDLE

  There was a timeout while idling a miniport adapter.

• 0x26 : NDIS_BUGCHECK_WATCHDOG_CANCEL_IDLE

  There was a timeout while canceling an idle request on a miniport adapter.

Cast to ndis!NDIS_WATCHDOG_TRIAGE_BLOCK. Useful fields:

• StartTime shows what time the operation started, in 100ns units, as returned by KeQueryInterruptTime.
• TimeoutMilliseconds shows how long NDIS waited, at a minimum, before triggering this bugcheck.
• TargetObject is a handle to the protocol, filter module, or miniport adapter that NDIS is waiting on. Run !ndiskd.protocol, !ndiskd.filter, or !ndiskd.netadapter with this handle for more information.
• PrimaryThread is the thread on which NDIS initiated the operation. Usually, this is the first place to look, although the thread may have gone elsewhere if the operation is being handled asynchronously.

The value of Parameter 4 depends on the value of Parameter 2. Each number in this list corresponds to the same number in Parameter 2.
