Erases the current tape partition, either as a TAPE_ERASE_LONG (in other words, a "secure") operation that overwrites data with a pattern or as a TAPE_ERASE_SHORT (in other words, a "quick") operation that writes an end-of-recorded-data mark at the current position.
The buffer at Irp->AssociatedIrp.SystemBuffer contains a structure of type TAPE_ERASE.
If the Immediate member is TRUE, the operation should be asynchronous.
Parameters.DeviceIoControl.InputBufferLength in the I/O stack location indicates the size, in bytes, of the parameter buffer, which must be >= sizeof(TAPE_ERASE).
None.
None.
The Information field is set to the number of bytes transferred. The Status field is set to STATUS_SUCCESS, or possibly to STATUS_INFO_LENGTH_MISMATCH, STATUS_DEVICE_DATA_ERROR, STATUS_NO_SUCH_DEVICE, STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT, STATUS_IO_DEVICE_ERROR, STATUS_MEDIA_WRITE_PROTECTED, STATUS_INSUFFICIENT_RESOURCES, STATUS_NOT_IMPLEMENTED, STATUS_NO_MEDIA_IN_DEVICE, or STATUS_VERIFY_REQUIRED.
