How do I get the address to kernel modules nt and win32k?

Question

I need to know the base addresses where nt and win32k are loaded. I can find out this information by booting the system with kernel debugging enabled, start a kernel debug session, and run the command lm to get a list of the loaded modules.

What I want to do is programmatically determine where these two modules are loaded without booting into debug mode and using the kernel debugger. I need the base addresses for resolving syscalls in an Event Tracing for Windows log file.

The system I am working on is running Windows Server 2008 R2.

Answer 1

The list of loaded kernel modules and base addresses (including ntoskrnl) is stored in the list pointed by PsLoadedModulesList symbol. Or use ZwQuerySystemInformation(SystemModuleInformation) instead.
