I saw another post that was saying the .SYS file is full of zeroes so I don't think "just use rust" would fix that. Sounds like some kind of build toolchain and QA problem.

Yes you should check for null pointers but your program is probably going to break in a pretty unexpected way when all of the pointers are null.... and what's the deal with microsoft letting people auto update kernel drivers
