ReactOS Setup is an integral component that is part of the operating system responsible for the installation of ROS during 2nd installation stage. The situation with current master branch is like this -- the Services component always tries to create the process
on behalf of the logged in user with its own security context. That user doesn't have the privileges and access rights like SYSTEM thus the Services component tries to create the process but it fails to do so because of lacking of required access right, TOKEN_DUPLICATE, in order for the calling thread to impersonate as self.
- Reserve the pipe NtControlPipe0 for the security process.
- Count regular service control pipes from 1.
- Use I_ScIsSecurityProcess to identify the security process.
- Services.exe uses the SECURITY_SERVICES_STARTED event to notify the security process that NtControlPipe0 is ready for use.
- Add a function that creates a new control set and deletes unused control sets in case of a successful boot.
- Add a stub function that will soon switch to the last known good control set in case of an unsuccessful boot.
- Flush the new control set after the control set has been created.
- Make sure that we create a new control set only on the first boot after setup.
- Move the control set copy code to a separate function.
- Get rid of the global control set values.
- RI_ScSetServiceBitsA: Just call RI_ScSetServiceBitsW.
- RI_ScSetServiceBitsW: Store the service bits in the service list entry.
TODO: Merge all service bits in a global variable and pass it to the server service. Maybe use netapi.I_NetServerSetServiceBits(Ex)?
services\database.c:
- Refactor ScmControlService() so that it can be used to send the dispatcher loop stop command.
- Separate the code to decrement the image run counter from the service image cleanup code.
services\rpcserver.c:
- RSetServiceStatus(): Stop the dispatcher loop when the image run counter is zero and remove the service image after that.
advapi32\service\sctrl.c:
- Do not terminate the service dispatcher loop when the last service is being stopped. Wait for an explicit dispatcher stop command (empty service name).

- The initial dwWin32ExitCode for a disabled service is ERROR_SERVICE_DISABLED and ERROR_SRVICE_NEVER_STARTED for non-disabled services.
- The initial dwWaitHint is 2000 (2 seconds) for (user-mode) services and 0 for drivers.
- Move all driver-related code to driver.c.
