#define IOCTL_STORAGE_FIRMWARE_DOWNLOAD 0x002DDC04
View the official Win32 API referenceNo description available.
A driver can use IOCTL_STORAGE_FIRMWARE_DOWNLOAD to download a firmware image to a storage device, but does not activate it. If the image to be downloaded is larger than the controller’s maximum data transfer size, this IOCTL will have to be called multiple times until the entire image is downloaded.
Irp->AssociatedIrp.SystemBuffer contains STORAGE_HW_FIRMWARE_DOWNLOAD data that specifies information about the downloaded firmware to activate.
Parameters.DeviceIoControl.InputBufferLength indicates the size, in bytes, of the parameter buffer at Irp->AssociatedIrp.SystemBuffer, which must be >= sizeof(STORAGE_HW_FIRMWARE_DOWNLOAD).
This IOCTL has no output structure.
None.
The Information field is set to the number of bytes returned. The Status field is set to STATUS_SUCCESS, or possibly to STATUS_INSUFFICIENT_RESOURCES.
IOCTL_STORAGE_FIRMWARE_ACTIVATE
IOCTL_STORAGE_FIRMWARE_GET_INFO
STORAGE_HW_FIRMWARE_INFO_QUERY
Windows applications can use this control code to download a firmware image to the target device, but not activate it. If the image to be downloaded is larger than the controller’s maximum data transfer size, this IOCTL will have to be called multiple times until the entire image is downloaded.
To perform this operation, call the DeviceIoControl function with the following parameters.
BOOL DeviceIoControl(
(HANDLE) hDevice, // handle to device
IOCTL_STORAGE_FIRMWARE_DOWNLOAD, // dwIoControlCode
(LPDWORD) lpInBuffer, // input buffer
(DWORD) nInBufferSize, // size of input buffer
(LPDWORD) lpOutBuffer, // output buffer
(DWORD) nOutBufferSize, // size of output buffer
(LPDWORD) lpBytesReturned, // number of bytes returned
(LPOVERLAPPED) lpOverlapped // OVERLAPPED structure
);
Irp->IoStatus.Status is set to STATUS_SUCCESS if the request is successful.
Otherwise, Status to the appropriate error condition as a NTSTATUS code.
