View the official Windows Driver Kit DDI referenceNo description available.
This routine retrieves the silo context from the specified silo and slot.
Silo [in]The silo where the silo context is to exist. This parameter is required and it cannot be NULL.
ContextSlot [in]The slot where the silo context is to exist. A slot allocated by the PsAllocSiloContextSlot routine.
ReturnedSiloContextReceives a referenced pointer to the silo context. On failure, the value received will be NULL.
The following NT status codes are returned.
| Return code | Description |
|---|---|
| STATUS_NOT_FOUND | Status code if the silo context is not found. |
| STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER | Status code if an invalid slot number was supplied as the ContextSlot parameter. |
| STATUS_SUCCESS | The operation completed successfully. |
The PsGetSiloContext routine retrieves an object that was inserted in the specified silo. A successful call to this routine increments the reference count on the object that the ReturnedSiloContext parameter points to. The object that the ReturnedSiloContext parameter points to, must be decremented by calling PsDereferenceSiloContext when it is no longer needed. A context slot may go empty if the silo is being terminated by either having no more processes or a specific call to NtTerminateJobObject. The return status in this case is STATUS_NOT_FOUND.
