/*++

Routine Description:

    This is the exception handler used by NtFlushInstructionCache to protect
    against bad virtual addresses passed to KeSweepIcacheRange.  If an
    access violation occurs, this routine causes NtFlushInstructionCache to
    restart the sweep at the page following the failing page.

Arguments:

    ExceptionPointers - Supplies exception information.

    BaseAddress - Supplies a pointer to address the base of the region
        being flushed.  If the failing address is not in the last page
        of the region, this routine updates BaseAddress to point to the
        next page of the region.

    Length - Supplies a pointer the length of the region being flushed.
        If the failing address is not in the last page of the region,
        this routine updates Length to reflect restarting the flush at
        the next page of the region.

    Retry - Supplies a pointer to a boolean that the caller has initialized
        to FALSE.  This routine sets this boolean to TRUE if an access
        violation occurs in a page before the last page of the flush region.

Return Value:

    EXCEPTION_EXECUTE_HANDLER.

Routine Description:

    This function flushes the instruction cache for the specified process.

Arguments:

    ProcessHandle - Supplies a handle to the process in which the instruction
        cache is to be flushed. Must have PROCESS_VM_WRITE access to the
        specified process.

    BaseAddress - Supplies an optional pointer to base of the region that
        is flushed.

    Length - Supplies the length of the region that is flushed if the base
        address is specified.

Return Value:

    STATUS_SUCCESS.
