MiniportEnableInterrupt (Compact 2013)

3/26/2014

This optional function is supplied by some drivers of network adapters that support dynamic enabling and disabling of interrupts but do not share an IRQ.

Syntax

VOID MiniportEnableInterrupt(
  NDIS_HANDLE MiniportAdapterContext
);

Parameters

• MiniportAdapterContext
  [in] Specifies the handle to a miniport-allocated context area in which the driver maintains per-network adapter state, set up by MiniportInitialize

Return Value

None

Remarks

MiniportEnableInterrupt typically enables interrupts by writing a mask to the network adapter.

A network adapter driver that exports a MiniportDisableInterrupt function does not have to have a reciprocal MiniportEnableInterrupt function. Such a driver's MiniportHandleInterrupt function is responsible for re-enabling interrupts on the network adapter.

If its network adapter does not support dynamic enabling and disabling of interrupts, the network adapter driver must register a MiniportISR function and set RequestIsr to TRUE when it calls NdisMRegisterInterrupt. Such a driver's MiniportISR function must acknowledge each interrupt generated by the network adapter and save any necessary interrupt information for the driver's MiniportHandleInterrupt function.
