NDIS_REQUEST_TYPE enumeration (ndis/oidtypes.h)

  • Article

The NDIS_REQUEST_TYPE enumeration identifies the request type in an OID request.

Syntax

typedef enum _NDIS_REQUEST_TYPE {
  NdisRequestQueryInformation,
  NdisRequestSetInformation,
  NdisRequestQueryStatistics,
  NdisRequestOpen,
  NdisRequestClose,
  NdisRequestSend,
  NdisRequestTransferData,
  NdisRequestReset,
  NdisRequestGeneric1,
  NdisRequestGeneric2,
  NdisRequestGeneric3,
  NdisRequestGeneric4,
  NdisRequestMethod
} NDIS_REQUEST_TYPE, *PNDIS_REQUEST_TYPE;

Constants

 
NdisRequestQueryInformation
A query-information request. For certain requests, NDIS satisfies the request. Otherwise,
NDIS forwards such requests to the underlying driver's
MiniportOidRequest function. This type of request can originate in a user-mode application, filter module, or protocol driver.

Note  Drivers should treat NdisRequestQueryInformation and NdisRequestQueryStatistics queries identically.

 
NdisRequestSetInformation
A set-information request. NDIS forwards such a request to the underlying driver's
MiniportOidRequest function.
NdisRequestQueryStatistics
A query-statistics request. For certain requests, NDIS satisfies the request. Otherwise,
NDIS forwards such requests to the underlying driver's
MiniportOidRequest function. This type of request can originate in a user-mode application, filter module, or protocol driver.

Note  Drivers should treat NdisRequestQueryInformation and NdisRequestQueryStatistics queries identically.

 
NdisRequestOpen
This type is obsolete.
NdisRequestClose
This type is obsolete.
NdisRequestSend
This type is obsolete.
NdisRequestTransferData
This type is obsolete.
NdisRequestReset
This type is obsolete.
NdisRequestGeneric1
A request that is specific to the type of the miniport driver.
NdisRequestGeneric2
A request that is specific to the type of the miniport driver.
NdisRequestGeneric3
A request that is specific to the type of the miniport driver.
NdisRequestGeneric4
A request that is specific to the type of the miniport driver.
NdisRequestMethod
A method request. NDIS forwards such a request to the underlying driver's
MiniportOidRequest function.

Remarks

The NDIS_REQUEST_TYPE enumeration is used in the NDIS_OID_REQUEST structure.

Note  For any NDIS_REQUEST_TYPE value, the OID_Xxx that is specified in the Oid member of the NDIS_OID_REQUEST structure must be compatible with the type of operation requested.
