Library: Use Strmbase.lib (retail builds) or Strmbasd.lib (debug builds).

Function Description
CritCheckIn Returns TRUE if the current thread owns the specified critical section.
CritCheckOut Returns FALSE if the current thread owns the specified critical section.
DbgLockTrace Enables or disables debug logging for a given critical section.
