NdisSynchronousOidRequest function (ndis.h)
Protocol drivers call the NdisSynchronousOidRequest function to originate a new Synchronous OID request and issue it to underlying drivers.
Syntax
NDIS_STATUS NdisSynchronousOidRequest(
[in] NDIS_HANDLE NdisBindingHandle,
[in] NDIS_OID_REQUEST *OidRequest
);
Parameters
[in] NdisBindingHandle
The handle returned by the NdisOpenAdapterEx function that identifies the target miniport adapter on the binding.
[in] OidRequest
A pointer to an NDIS_OID_REQUEST structure that specifies the operation that is requested with a given OID_Xxx code. The structure can specify an OID query, set, or method request.
Return value
The underlying driver determines which NDIS_STATUS_XXX code NdisSynchronousOidRequest returns, but it is usually one of the following values:
| Return code | Description |
|---|---|
|
The request operation completed successfully. |
|
The OID_Xxx code that was specified in the Oid member of the NDIS_OID_REQUEST-structured buffer at OidRequest was invalid or unsupported by the underlying driver. |
|
The value that was specified in the InformationBufferLength member of the NDIS_OID_REQUEST-structured buffer at OidRequest did not match the requirements for the given OID_Xxx code. If the information buffer was too small, the BytesNeeded member contains the correct value for InformationBufferLength on return from NdisSynchronousOidRequest. |
|
The data that was supplied at InformationBuffer in the given NDIS_OID_REQUEST structure was invalid for the given OID_Xxx code. |
|
The underlying driver does not support the requested operation. |
|
The request could not be satisfied because of a resource shortage. Typically, this return value indicates that an attempt to allocate memory was unsuccessful, but it does not necessarily indicate that the same request, submitted later, will be failed for the same reason. |
|
The underlying driver attempted the requested operation, typically a set on a NIC, but it failed. For example, an attempt to set too many multicast addresses might cause the return of this value. |
|
The underlying driver failed the requested operation because a close operation is in progress. |
|
The underlying miniport driver cannot satisfy the request at this time because it is currently resetting the affected NIC. The caller's ProtocolStatusEx function was or will be called with NDIS_STATUS_RESET_START to indicate that a reset is in progress. This return value does not necessarily indicate that the same request, submitted later, will be failed for the same reason. |
|
This value typically is a non-specific default, returned when none of the more specific NDIS_STATUS_Xxx values caused the underlying driver to fail the request. |
Remarks
The NdisSynchronousOidRequest function cannot be used for general OID requests. For general OID requests, use the NdisOidRequest function instead. NdisSynchronousOidRequest can be used only for OIDs that NDIS supports for use with the Synchronous OID interface. Most protocol drivers do not need to call NdisSynchronousOidRequest
Protocol drivers must not close the adapter binding until any Synchronous OID requests originated by the protocol driver are completed.
Protocol drivers are not required to implement ProtocolOidRequestComplete or ProtocolDirectOidRequestComplete in order to call NdisSynchronousOidRequest. As its name suggests, a Synchronous OID request always completes synchronously, so there is no asynchronous callback.
