  • Article

The ZwPrePrepareEnlistment routine initiates the pre-prepare operation for a specified enlistment's transaction.

Syntax

NTSYSCALLAPI NTSTATUS ZwPrePrepareEnlistment(
  [in]           HANDLE         EnlistmentHandle,
  [in, optional] PLARGE_INTEGER TmVirtualClock
);

Parameters

[in] EnlistmentHandle

A handle to an enlistment object that was obtained by a previous call to ZwCreateEnlistment or ZwOpenEnlistment. The object must represent a superior enlistment and the handle must have ENLISTMENT_SUPERIOR_RIGHTS access to the object.

[in, optional] TmVirtualClock

A pointer to a virtual clock value. This parameter is optional and can be NULL.

Return value

ZwPrePrepareEnlistment returns STATUS_SUCCESS if the operation succeeds. Otherwise, this routine might return one of the following values:

Return code Description
STATUS_ENLISTMENT_NOT_SUPERIOR
 The caller is not a superior transaction manager for the enlistment.
STATUS_TRANSACTION_RESPONSE_NOT_ENLISTED
 The caller did not register to receive TRANSACTION_NOTIFY_PREPREPARE_COMPLETE notifications.
STATUS_OBJECT_TYPE_MISMATCH
 The specified handle is not a handle to an enlistment object.
STATUS_INVALID_HANDLE
 The object handle is invalid.
STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED
 The caller does not have appropriate access to the enlistment object.
STATUS_TRANSACTION_REQUEST_NOT_VALID

The routine might return other NTSTATUS values.

Remarks

Only superior transaction managers can call ZwPrePrepareEnlistment.

Callers of ZwPrePrepareEnlistment must register to receive TRANSACTION_NOTIFY_PREPREPARE_COMPLETE notifications.

The ZwPrePrepareEnlistment routine causes KTM to send TRANSACTION_NOTIFY_PREPREPARE notifications to all resource managers that have enlisted in the transaction.

NtPrepareEnlistment and ZwPrepareEnlistment are two versions of the same Windows Native System Services routine.

For calls from kernel-mode drivers, the NtXxx and ZwXxx versions of a Windows Native System Services routine can behave differently in the way that they handle and interpret input parameters.
