HWPutBytes

This function is called by a driver to write bytes to hardware.

ULONG HWPutBytes(
PVOID pContext, 
PUCHAR pSrc, 
ULONG NumberOfBytes, 
PULONG pBytesSent );

Parameters

  • pContext
    Pointer to a context structure returned by the HWInit function that contains implementation-specific data describing the hardware device.
  • pSrc
    Pointer to bytes to be sent.
  • NumberOfBytes
    Specifies the number of bytes to be sent.
  • pBytesSent
    Pointer to the actual number of bytes written.

Return Values

This function returns 0 or the minimum number of milliseconds before the MDD layer should call again. This is used if the device does not support interrupt-based indications of changes in the status of hardware flow-control lines. The MDD layer calls again to see if the flow-control condition has been removed.

Remarks

This function supports the implementation of the PDDs of serial port drivers.
