Handling Status Indications in a CoNDIS Protocol Driver

Protocol drivers must supply a ProtocolCoStatusEx function that NDIS calls when an underlying driver reports status.

NDIS calls a protocol driver's ProtocolCoStatusEx function after an underlying driver calls a status indication function (for example, NdisMCoIndicateStatusEx). For more information about indicating status from a miniport driver, see CoNDIS Miniport Driver Status Indications.

If the status indication is associated with an OID request, the underlying driver can set the DestinationHandle and RequestId members of the NDIS_STATUS_INDICATION structure that contains the status information so that NDIS can provide the status indication to a specific protocol binding. For more information about OID requests, see CoNDIS Protocol Driver OID Requests.
