PFN_WSK_CLIENT_EVENT callback function (wsk.h)

The WskClientEvent event callback function notifies a WSK application about events that are not specific to a particular socket.

Syntax

PFN_WSK_CLIENT_EVENT PfnWskClientEvent;

NTSTATUS PfnWskClientEvent(
  [in, optional] PVOID ClientContext,
  [in]           ULONG EventType,
  [in, optional] PVOID Information,
  [in]           SIZE_T InformationLength
)
{...}

Parameters

[in, optional] ClientContext

A pointer to the context value that was specified by the WskClientNpi parameter passed to the WskRegister function.

[in] EventType

The specific event about which the WSK application is being notified. There are currently no events defined.

[in, optional] Information

A pointer to a buffer that contains additional information that is associated with the event. If there is no additional information associated with the event, this pointer will be NULL.

[in] InformationLength

The length of the additional information that is contained in the buffer that is pointed to by the
Information parameter. If there is no additional information associated with the event, this value will be zero.

Return value

A WSK application's WskClientEvent event callback function can return one of the following NTSTATUS codes:

Remarks

Currently, no events are defined for the WskClientEvent event callback function. Therefore, if a WSK application implements a WskClientEvent event callback function, it should always return STATUS_NOT_IMPLEMENTED.

The additional information that is contained in the buffer that is pointed to by the Information parameter is read-only and is valid only for the duration of the call to the WskClientEvent event callback function.

If a WSK application does not implement a WskClientEvent event callback function, it should set the WskClientEvent member of the WSK_CLIENT_DISPATCH structure to NULL before it calls WskRegister.

The WSK subsystem calls a WSK application's WskClientEvent event callback function at IRQL <= DISPATCH_LEVEL.

A WSK application's WskClientEvent event callback function must not wait for completion of other WSK requests in the context of WSK completion or event callback functions. The callback can initiate other WSK requests (assuming that it doesn't spend too much time at DISPATCH_LEVEL), but it must not wait for their completion even when the callback is called at IRQL = PASSIVE_LEVEL.
