Communication Server Port callback question...

NTFSD
1

The prototype for the connect and message notify callbacks when creating
a communication server port (FltCreateCommunicationPort()) have a return
status associated with them. I can’t find any information on what would
happen if I returned a value other than STATUS_SUCCESS from these
callback routines (or why I might want to fail these callbacks). Can
anyone point me in the right direction?

thanks

If you return something other than success (like STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER)
in the message notification callback, that will get passed to the caller’s
FilterSendMessage() routine.

OK…how about the connect notification callback? If I don’t return
STATUS_SUCCESS, will the user’s FilterConnectCommunicationPort() call
fail (I’m assuming that is what will happen)?

thanks
