IoGetDeviceObjectPointer return STATUS_SHARING_VIOLATION

what a return STATUS_SHARING_VIOLATION on a call
to IoGetDeviceObjectPointer means?

Thanks

Most likely that the rights you asked for in DesiredAccess conflicts with someone else’s open of the device. For instance, if another driver opened the device read exclusive and you asked for read, this could potentially happen.

What device are you opening?
