GPIO_CLIENT_CONTROLLER_SPECIFIC_FUNCTION callback function (gpioclx.h)

Artikel
10/21/2021

The CLIENT_ControllerSpecificFunction event callback function performs an operation that is specific to a particular general-purpose I/O (GPIO) controller.

Syntax

GPIO_CLIENT_CONTROLLER_SPECIFIC_FUNCTION GpioClientControllerSpecificFunction;

NTSTATUS GpioClientControllerSpecificFunction(
  [in]      PVOID Context,
  [in, out] PGPIO_CLIENT_CONTROLLER_SPECIFIC_FUNCTION_PARAMETERS Parameters
)
{...}

Parameters

[in] Context

A pointer to the GPIO controller driver's device context.

[in, out] Parameters

A pointer to a GPIO_CLIENT_CONTROLLER_SPECIFIC_FUNCTION_PARAMETERS structure that contains the input and output buffers for the controller-specific operation.

Return value

The CLIENT_ControllerSpecificFunction function returns STATUS_SUCCESS if the call is successful. Possible return values include the following error codes.

Return code	Description
STATUS_NOT_SUPPORTED	The GPIO controller does not support the operation specified by the input parameters.
STATUS_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL	The size of the input buffer or output buffer is too small.

Remarks

As an option, a GPIO controller driver can support IOCTL_GPIO_CONTROLLER_SPECIFIC_FUNCTION requests. This type of I/O control request (IOCTL) performs controller-specific operations for the benefit of peripheral device drivers that require these operations. To support this IOCTL, a GPIO controller driver implements a CLIENT_ControllerSpecificFunction function.

The GPIO framework extension (GpioClx) supports the CLIENT_ControllerSpecificFunction function to address the specific needs of certain hardware platforms. Typical GPIO controller drivers do not implement this function. A peripheral device driver that uses IOCTL_GPIO_CONTROLLER_SPECIFIC_FUNCTION requests to perform a hardware-specific operation on one platform risks the loss of compatibility with other platforms that do not support this operation.

Typically, the CLIENT_ControllerSpecificFunction function programs the GPIO controller to perform a hardware-specific operation on a set of GPIO pins. The input and output parameters for this operation are defined by the developer for the GPIO controller driver. Only a peripheral device driver that is aware of the particular operations implemented by a GPIO controller driver can request these operations.

When GpioClx receives an IOCTL_GPIO_CONTROLLER_SPECIFIC_FUNCTION request, it checks to see whether the GPIO controller driver has implemented a CLIENT_ControllerSpecificFunction function. If so, GpioClx copies the descriptions of the input and output buffers from the IOCTL to a GPIO_CLIENT_CONTROLLER_SPECIFIC_FUNCTION_PARAMETERS structure and passes a pointer to this structure as a parameter to the CLIENT_ControllerSpecificFunction function. If the parameter values in the GPIO_CLIENT_CONTROLLER_SPECIFIC_FUNCTION_PARAMETERS structure are valid, the function performs the requested operation and returns STATUS_SUCCESS.

If GpioClx receives an IOCTL_GPIO_CONTROLLER_SPECIFIC_FUNCTION request, and the GPIO controller driver does not implement a CLIENT_ControllerSpecificFunction function, GpioClx completes the IOCTL with error code STATUS_NOT_IMPLEMENTED.

Examples

To define a CLIENT_ControllerSpecificFunction callback function, you must first provide a function declaration that identifies the type of callback function you're defining. Windows provides a set of callback function types for drivers. Declaring a function using the callback function types helps Code Analysis for Drivers, Static Driver Verifier (SDV), and other verification tools find errors, and it's a requirement for writing drivers for the Windows operating system.

For example, to define a CLIENT_ControllerSpecificFunction callback function that is named MyEvtGpioControllerSpecificFunction, use the GPIO_CLIENT_CONTROLLER_SPECIFIC_FUNCTION function type, as shown in this code example:

GPIO_CLIENT_CONTROLLER_SPECIFIC_FUNCTION MyEvtGpioControllerSpecificFunction;

Then, implement your callback function as follows:

_Use_decl_annotations_
NTSTATUS
  MyEvtGpioControllerSpecificFunction(
    PVOID Context,
    PGPIO_CLIENT_CONTROLLER_SPECIFIC_FUNCTION_PARAMETERS Parameters
    )
{ ... }

The GPIO_CLIENT_CONTROLLER_SPECIFIC_FUNCTION function type is defined in the Gpioclx.h header file. To more accurately identify errors when you run the code analysis tools, be sure to add the Use_decl_annotations annotation to your function definition. The Use_decl_annotations annotation ensures that the annotations that are applied to the GPIO_CLIENT_CONTROLLER_SPECIFIC_FUNCTION function type in the header file are used. For more information about the requirements for function declarations, see Declaring Functions by Using Function Role Types for KMDF Drivers. For more information about Use_decl_annotations, see Annotating Function Behavior.
