IOCTL_DISK_SET_DRIVE_LAYOUT_EX IOCTL (ntdddisk.h)
Repartitions a disk as specified. (Floppy drivers need not handle this request.)
Major code
Input buffer
The buffer at Irp->AssociatedIrp.SystemBuffer contains the DRIVE_LAYOUT_INFORMATION_EX values to be set.
Input buffer length
Parameters.DeviceIoControl.InputBufferLength in the I/O stack location of the IRP indicates the size, in bytes, of the buffer, which must be >= sizeof(DRIVE_LAYOUT_INFORMATION_EX).
Output buffer
Returns updated DRIVE_LAYOUT_INFORMATION_EX, possibly with modified partition numbers, to the buffer at Irp->AssociatedIrp.SystemBuffer.
Output buffer length
Length of a DRIVE_LAYOUT_INFORMATION_EX.
Status block
The Information field is set to the size, in bytes, of the returned information. The Status field can be set to STATUS_SUCCESS, or possibly to STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER, STATUS_INFO_LENGTH_MISMATCH, STATUS_INSUFFICIENT_RESOURCES, or STATUS_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL.
