Dot11ExtIhvReceiveIndication (Compact 2013)

3/26/2014

The operating system calls this function to issue an IHV-specific indication to the IHV Extensions DLL from the wireless LAN (WLAN) adapter.

Syntax

DWORD WINAPI Dot11ExtIhvReceiveIndication(
    HANDLE hIhvExtAdapter,
    DOT11EXT_IHV_INDICATION_TYPE indicationType,
    ULONG uBufferLength,
    LPVOID pvBuffer
);

Parameters

• hIhvExtAdapter
  [in] The handle that is used by the IHV Extensions DLL to reference the WLAN adapter. This handle value was specified through a previous call to the Dot11ExtIhvInitAdapter IHV Handler function.

• indicationType
  [in] The DOT11EXT_IHV_INDICATION_TYPE indication type

• uBufferLength
  [in] The length, in bytes, of the data within the buffer that is referenced by the pvBuffer parameter

• pvBuffer
  [in] The pointer to a buffer, allocated by the operating system, that contains the notification data. The IHV is responsible for defining the format of the notification data.

Return Value

If the call succeeds, the function returns ERROR_SUCCESS. Otherwise, it returns an error code defined in Winerror.h.

Remarks

When the Native 802.11 miniport driver, which manages the WLAN adapter, makes an NDIS_STATUS_MEDIA_SPECIFIC_INDICATION indication, the operating system forwards the notification data to the IHV Extensions DLL by calling the Dot11ExtIhvReceiveIndication function.
