PPUT_SCATTER_GATHER_LIST callback function (wdm.h)

The PutScatterGatherList routine frees the previously allocated map registers and scatter/gather list used in scatter/gather DMA.

Syntax

PPUT_SCATTER_GATHER_LIST PputScatterGatherList;

void PputScatterGatherList(
  [in] PDMA_ADAPTER DmaAdapter,
  [in] PSCATTER_GATHER_LIST ScatterGather,
  [in] BOOLEAN WriteToDevice
)
{...}

Parameters

[in] DmaAdapter

Pointer to the DMA_ADAPTER structure returned by IoGetDmaAdapter that represents the bus-master adapter or DMA controller.

[in] ScatterGather

Pointer to a SCATTER_GATHER_LIST structure previously returned by GetScatterGatherList.

[in] WriteToDevice

Indicates the direction of the DMA transfer: specify TRUE for a transfer from the buffer to the device, and FALSE otherwise.

Return value

None

Remarks

PutScatterGatherList is not a system routine that can be called directly by name. This routine is callable only by pointer from the address returned in a DMA_OPERATIONS structure. Drivers obtain the address of this routine by calling IoGetDmaAdapter.

Drivers should call PutScatterGatherList after completing scatter/gather I/O. This routine flushes the adapter buffers, frees the map registers, and unmaps and frees the associated MDLs. Additionally, the routine frees the scatter/gather list if it was previously allocated by GetScatterGatherList.
