RE: Making an application non-pageable
You can set the 'M' flag of the binary image builder (.bib) file to force
your application into an non-pageable mode.
for example,
app.exe $(_FLATRELEASEDIR)\app.exe NK SHM
For the section non-pageable, you can refer to the codes below.
/***************************************/
#pragma comment(linker, "/section:.no_page,ER!P")
#pragma code_seg(push, ".no_page")
XXX_PowerDown()
{ //Perform single-threaded power off logic }
XXX_PowerUp()
{ //Perform single-threaded power on logic }
#pragma code_seg(pop)
/***************************************/

RE: Making an application non-pageable
Thanks for the tip about the bib file, but unfortunately that method won't do
either. We build and release our kernel seperately from the applications
that actually run on our platform. Updating the kernel in our device is not
easy (and extremely time consuming).
Is there another way of telling the system to not page an exe? Perhaps a
registry entry that tells the loader to not page?

RE: Making an application non-pageable
Do you have the source codes of the application?
If yes, you can add the pre-compile instructions as below to make your
application non-pageable.
#pragma comment(linker, "/section:.no_page,ER!P")
#pragma code_seg(push, ".no_page")
/// Application source codes.
#pragma code_seg(pop)
