NdisMapFile

  • Article

This function maps an already open file into a caller-accessible buffer if the file is currently unmapped.

VOID NdisMapFile(
  PNDIS_STATUS Status,
  PVOID* MappedBuffer,
  NDIS_HANDLE FileHandle
);

Parameters

  • Status
    [out] Points to a caller-supplied variable in which this function returns the status of the mapping operation, which can be one of the following:

    • NDIS_STATUS_SUCCESS

      The caller has exclusive access to the file contents until NdisUnmapFile is called.

    • NDIS_STATUS_ALREADY_MAPPED

      The caller cannot access the file contents at this time.

  • MappedBuffer
    [out] Points to a caller-supplied variable in which this function returns the base virtual address of the mapped file contents or NULL.
  • FileHandle
    [in] Specifies the handle returned by a preceding call to NdisOpenFile.

Return Values

None.

Remarks

NdisMapFile associates or maps a virtual address range with an opened file so the driver can access the file contents. NdisMapFile allows only one mapping of a particular file to be outstanding at any time. Consequently, a successful caller is given exclusive access to the file data until NdisUnmapFile or NdisCloseFile is called.

A NIC driver can map and unmap such an open file as necessary, using alternating calls to NdisMapFile and NdisUnmapFile. A call to NdisCloseFile releases the FileHandle and de-allocates the buffer containing the file contents.

A NIC driver can call NdisMapFile only during initialization.

Requirements

OS Versions: Windows CE .NET 4.0 and later.
Header: Ndis.h.
Link Library: Ndis.dll.
