No, it's documented in the DDK these days.

(ZwQueryInformationFile == NtQueryInformationFile)
Please explain the relevance for the uninitiated.
The Zw stuff looks like Device Drive APIs, where as we want
Userspace/Application APIs.
There is no documented type for
FILE_INFORMATION_CLASS=FilePipeLocalInformation in the Zw functions.
So my stance is still the same. A MS rocket scientist is still
necessary requirement to continue with the existing approach. The
rocket scientist will understand things that mere mortals wont :).
Maybe you are in a better position to share more insight into the
situation (specifically about the use of NtQueryInformationFile in
addressing the writability semantics of the POSIX select/poll/write
event system).
