SCSIWMI_REQUEST_CONTEXT structure (scsiwmi.h)
A SCSIWMI_REQUEST_CONTEXT structure contains context information for a WMI SRB.
Note
The SCSI port driver and SCSI miniport driver models may be altered or unavailable in the future. Instead, we recommend using the Storport driver and Storport miniport driver models.
Syntax
typedef struct {
PVOID UserContext;
ULONG BufferSize;
PUCHAR Buffer;
UCHAR MinorFunction;
UCHAR ReturnStatus;
ULONG ReturnSize;
} SCSIWMI_REQUEST_CONTEXT, *PSCSIWMI_REQUEST_CONTEXT;
Members
UserContext
Points to a miniport driver buffer that contains any data the miniport driver requires to process the SRB. This can be a pointer to the miniport driver's HW_DEVICE_EXTENSION structure or some other buffer.
BufferSize
Reserved for system use and not available for use by miniport drivers.
Buffer
Reserved for system use and not available for use by miniport drivers.
MinorFunction
Reserved for system use and not available for use by miniport drivers.
ReturnStatus
Indicates the return status of the SRB. This member is not valid until after the miniport driver has called ScsiPortWmiPostProcess to update the request context.
ReturnSize
Indicates the number of bytes of data transferred for the SRB. This member is not valid until after the miniport driver has called ScsiPortWmiPostProcess to update the request context.
Remarks
When the miniport driver receives an SRB in which the Function member is set to SRB_FUNCTION_WMI, it calls ScsiPortWmiDispatchFunction with request parameters, including a pointer to a request context. ScsiPortWmiDispatchFunction passes the request context to the miniport driver's appropriate HwScsiWmiXxx routine.
When the miniport driver is done processing the SRB and prior to completing the SRB, the miniport driver should call ScsiPortWmiPostProcess to update the ReturnStatus and ReturnSize members of the request context. The miniport driver updates the SRB's data transfer length and status to these values by calling ScsiPortWmiGetReturnSize and ScsiPortWmiGetReturnStatus. respectively.
A request context must remain valid throughout the processing of an SRB. If the SRB can pend, the miniport driver must allocate the SCSIWMI_REQUEST_CONTEXT structure from the SRB extension so it remains valid until the SRB completes. For nonpending SRBs the structure can be allocated from a stack frame that does not go out of scope.
