PFN_WSK_LISTEN callback function (wsk.h)
The WskListen function enables a stream socket to listen for incoming connections at the socket's bound address.
Syntax
PFN_WSK_LISTEN PfnWskListen;
NTSTATUS PfnWskListen(
[in] PWSK_SOCKET Socket,
[in, out] PIRP Irp
)
{...}
Parameters
[in] Socket
A pointer to a WSK_SOCKET structure that specifies the socket object for the stream socket that is listening for an incoming connection. This socket must have previously been bound to a local transport address by calling WskBind.
[in, out] Irp
A pointer to a caller-allocated IRP that the WSK subsystem uses to complete the listen operation asynchronously. For more information about using IRPs with WSK functions, see Using IRPs with Winsock Kernel Functions.
Return value
WskListen returns one of the following NTSTATUS codes:
| Return code | Description |
|---|---|
|
The stream socket listened for an incoming connection successfully. The IRP will be completed with success status. |
|
The IRP has been queued by the WSK subsystem, which is waiting for an incoming connection on the stream socket. |
|
The socket is no longer functional. The IRP will be completed with failure status. The WSK application must call the WskCloseSocket function to close the socket as soon as possible. |
|
An error occurred. The IRP will be completed with failure status. |
Remarks
A WSK application can call the WskListen function only on a stream socket that the application previously bound to a local transport address by calling the WskBind function. Once WskListen is successfully called on a stream socket, the socket is committed to a listening socket flow and can no longer call connection-oriented socket functions.
