Yes, indeed, the program needs to communicate with the driver somehow.
The only place where theSSQC()function is called is thethunk function:
.text:0000DBE8 public SSQ
.text:0000DBE8 SSQ proc near ; CODE XREF: sys_info+A9p
.text:0000DBE8 ; sys_info+CBp ...
.text:0000DBE8
.text:0000DBE8 arg_0 = dword ptr 8
.text:0000DBE8
.text:0000DBE8 push ebp
.text:0000DBE9 mov ebp, esp
.text:0000DBEB mov edx, [ebp+arg_0]
.text:0000DBEE push edx
.text:0000DBEF call SSQC
.text:0000DBF4 add esp, 4
.text:0000DBF7 mov esp, ebp
.text:0000DBF9 pop ebp
.text:0000DBFA retn
.text:0000DBFB SSQ endp
SSQ() is called from at least 2 functions.
One of these is:
.data:0040169C _51_52_53 dd offset aPressAnyKeyT_0 ; DATA XREF: init_sys+392r
.data:0040169C ; sys_info+A1r
.data:0040169C ; "PRESS ANY KEY TO CONTINUE: "
.data:004016A0 dd offset a51 ; "51"
.data:004016A4 dd offset a52 ; "52"
.data:004016A8 dd offset a53 ; "53"
...
.data:004016B8 _3C_or_3E dd offset a3c ; DATA XREF: sys_info:loc_D67Br
