IRP_MJ_LOCK_CONTROL (FS and filter drivers)

When Sent

The I/O Manager, other operating system components, and other kernel-mode drivers send IRP_MJ_LOCK_CONTROL requests.

Operation: File System Drivers

The file system driver should extract and decode the file object to determine whether the target device object is the file system's control device object. If so, the file system driver should complete the IRP as appropriate without processing the lock request.

Otherwise, if the request has been issued on a handle that represents a user file open, the file system driver should perform the operation indicated by the minor function code and complete the IRP. If not, the driver should fail the IRP.

The following are the valid minor function codes:

Code Description
IRP_MN_LOCK Indicates a byte-range lock request, possibly on behalf of a user-mode application that has called the Win32 LockFile function.
IRP_MN_UNLOCK_ALL Indicates a request to release all byte-range locks for a file, usually because the last outstanding handle to a file object is being closed.
IRP_MN_UNLOCK_ALL_BY_KEY Indicates a request to release all byte-range locks with a specified key value.
IRP_MN_UNLOCK_SINGLE Indicates a request to release a single byte-range lock, possibly on behalf of a user-mode application that has called the Win32 UnlockFile function.

Operation: Legacy File System Filter Drivers

File system filter drivers should pass the IRP down to the next-lower driver on the stack after performing any needed processing.

Parameters

A file system or filter driver calls IoGetCurrentIrpStackLocation with the given IRP to get a pointer to its own stack location in the IRP, shown in the following list as IrpSp. (The IRP is shown as Irp.) The driver can use the information that is set in the following members of the IRP and the IRP stack location in processing a lock control request:

  • DeviceObject is a pointer to the target device object.

  • Irp->IoStatus points to an IO_STATUS_BLOCK structure that receives the final completion status and information about the requested operation.

  • IrpSp->FileObject points to the file object that is associated with DeviceObject.

    The IrpSp->FileObject parameter contains a pointer to the RelatedFileObject field, which is also a FILE_OBJECT structure. The RelatedFileObject field of the FILE_OBJECT structure isn't valid during the processing of IRP_MJ_LOCK_CONTROL and shouldn't be used.

  • IrpSp->Flags can be one or more of the following values:

Flag Meaning
SL_EXCLUSIVE_LOCK If this flag is set, an exclusive byte-range lock is requested. Otherwise, a shared lock is requested.
SL_FAIL_IMMEDIATELY If this flag is set, the lock request should fail if it can't be granted immediately.
  • IrpSp->MajorFunction is set to IRP_MJ_LOCK_CONTROL.

  • IrpSp->MinorFunction is set to one of the following values:

    • IRP_MN_LOCK
    • IRP_MN_UNLOCK_ALL
    • IRP_MN_UNLOCK_ALL_BY_KEY
    • IRP_MN_UNLOCK_SINGLE
  • IrpSp->Parameters.LockControl.ByteOffset is the starting byte offset within the file of the byte range to be locked or unlocked.

  • IrpSp->Parameters.LockControl.Key is the key for the byte-range lock.

  • IrpSp->Parameters.LockControl.Length is the length, in bytes, of the byte range to be locked or unlocked.
