Does it? What's FILE_BASIC_INFORMATION? Link gives me 404. How do you replace kernel32 API with this?
> It’s easy to find many more examples such as https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winternl https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winternl..., so I don’t think that’s an accident.
Again, how do you replace kernel32 API with this?

This has nothing to do with ntdll at all.
I still don't get it, what's wrong with using the user32 and kernel32 APIs? It's stable, well-documented, and is the official API on Windows. So why not use it?

- skrellm 7d agoYeah, but the link talks about `ZwMapViewOfSection`. From that page: > For calls from kernel-mode drivers, the NtXxx and ZwXxx versions of a Windows Native System Services routine can behave differently in the way that they handle and interpret input parameters. How "differently" exactly? That's undocumented. And lots of other small (but very important) details are undocumented as well.
