In MSDN Q69223, the article mentioned how to retrieve disk volum serial
number. Can I get this number from kernel mode driver without resorting to
user mode helper ?
Thanks,
Jack

You could call IoQueryVolumeInformation with FsInformationClass
FileFsVolumeInformation and a pointer to a structure of type
FILE_FS_VOLUME_INFORMATION. All of these things are declared in ntifs.h
which comes with the Microsoft IFS Kit. If you don’t have the IFS Kit, it
would be a good idea to buy one. See
http://www.microsoft.com/hwdev/ntifskit/ for details.

You can prepare and send the IRP_MJ_QUERY_INFORMATION IRP to the
filesystem in order to retrieve this information. See ntifs.h for details -
namely
FILE_FS_VOLUME_INFORMATION structure.
