// Creates a pool of fixed-size blocks built over non-paged pool.  Each
// block is BlockSize bytes long.  If NULL is not returned,
// FsbDestroyPool should be called at a later time to reclaim the
// resources used by the pool.
//
// Arguments:
//  BlockSize - The size, in bytes, of each block.
//  FreeBlockLinkOffset - The offset, in bytes, from the beginning of a block
//    that represenets a pointer-sized storage location that the pool can
//    use to chain free blocks together.  Most often this will be zero
//    (meaning use the first pointer-size bytes of the block.)
//  Tag - The pool tag to be used internally for calls to
//    ExAllocatePoolWithTag.  This allows callers to track
//    memory consumption for different pools.
//  BuildFunction - An optional pointer to a function which initializes
//    blocks when they are first allocated by the pool.  This allows the
//    caller to perform custom, on-demand initialization of each block.
//
//  Returns the handle used to identify the pool.
//
// Caller IRQL: [PASSIVE_LEVEL, DISPATCH_LEVEL]
//

    IN  NDIS_BLOCK_INITIALIZER      BuildFunction OPTIONAL

// Destroys a pool of fixed-size blocks previously created by a call to
// FsbCreatePool.
