IOCTL_BTHX_QUERY_CAPABILITIES IOCTL (bthxddi.h)

IOCTL_BTHX_QUERY_CAPABILITIES is used to query the capabilities of the transport driver.

Major code

IRP_MJ_DEVICE_CONTROL

Input buffer

None.

Input buffer length

None.

Output buffer

The AssociatedIrp.SystemBuffer member points to a buffer that holds a BTHX_CAPABILITIES structure.

Output buffer length

The length of the buffer is the size of the BTHX_CAPABILITIES structure.

Status block

The Information member of the STATUS_BLOCK structure is set to the size of the structure.

The Status member is set to one of the values in the following table.

Status value Description
STATUS_SUCCESS The IOCTL completed successfully.

Remarks

During startup, the Bluetooth stack sends IOCTL_BTHX_QUERY_CAPABILITIES to query the capabilities of the transport driver.

This is a synchronous call and failure of this IOCTL prevents Windows from loading the Bluetooth stack.

The output buffer of this IOCTL is defined by the BTHX_CAPABILITIES structure.

The MaxScoChannels member must be set to 1. The ScoSupport member must be set to ScoSupportHCIBypass. Failure to do so prevents the stack from being loaded.
