CoNDIS Miniport Driver Status Indications

Miniport drivers call the NdisMCoIndicateStatusEx function to report a change in the status of a miniport adapter. The miniport driver passes NdisMCoIndicateStatusEx a pointer to an NDIS_STATUS_INDICATION structure that contains the status information.

The status indication includes information to identify the type of status and a reason for the status change.

The miniport driver should set the SourceHandle member of the NDIS_STATUS_INDICATION structure to the handle that NDIS passed to the MiniportAdapterHandle parameter of the MiniportInitializeEx function. If the status indication is associated with an OID request, the miniport driver can set the DestinationHandle and RequestId members of NDIS_STATUS_INDICATION so that NDIS can provide the status indication to a specific protocol binding. For more information about OID requests, see CoNDIS Miniport Driver OID Requests.
