IMiniportDMus::NewStream

The NewStream method creates a new instance of a logical stream associated with a specified physical channel.

HRESULT
  NewStream(
    OUT PMXF  *ppMXF,
    IN PUNKNOWN  pOuterUnknown  OPTIONAL,
    IN POOL_TYPE  PoolType,
    IN ULONG  uPinId,
    IN DMUS_STREAM_TYPE  StreamType,
    IN PKSDATAFORMAT  pDataFormat,
    OUT PSERVICEGROUP  *ppServiceGroup,
    IN PAllocatorMXF  pAllocatorMXF,
    IN PMASTERCLOCK  pMasterClock,
    OUT PULONGLONG  puuSchedulePreFetch
    );

Parameters

ppMXF
Output pointer for the new stream. This parameter points to a caller-allocated pointer variable into which the method writes a pointer to the stream object's IMXF interface.
pOuterUnknown
Pointer to the IUnknown interface of an object that needs to aggregate the stream object. This parameter is optional. If aggregation is not required, the caller specifies this parameter as NULL.
PoolType
Specifies the type of memory pool from which the storage for the DMA-channel object should be allocated. This parameter is set to one of the POOL_TYPE enumeration values.
uPinId
Specifies the pin ID. This parameter identifies the pin that is to be opened. If the DMus miniport driver's IMiniport::GetDescription method outputs a filter descriptor that specifies a total of N pin factories on the filter, then valid pin IDs are in the range 0 to N-1.
StreamType
Specifies the type of data stream to create. This parameter is set to one of the following DMUS_STREAM_TYPE enumeration values:
DMUS_STREAM_MIDI_RENDER
Specifies an output (playback) stream.
DMUS_STREAM_MIDI_CAPTURE
Specifies an input stream.
DMUS_STREAM_WAVE_SINK
Specifies a wave-out stream.
pDataFormat
Pointer to a kernel streaming KSDATAFORMAT structure specifying the data format to use for this instance
ppServiceGroup
Output pointer for service group. This parameter points to a caller-allocated pointer variable into which the method writes a pointer to the IServiceGroup interface of the stream's service-group object. This is the service group that is being registered for interrupt notification.
pAllocatorMXF
Pointer to an IAllocatorMXF object. This is the port driver's memory allocator, which is needed to recycle DMUS_KERNEL_EVENT structures.
pMasterClock
Pointer to an IMasterClock object. This master clock passes a wrapper for the KS clock to the miniport driver. The master-clock pointer is required to sync to reference time.
puuSchedulePreFetch
Output pointer for the schedule-prefetch time. This parameter is a pointer to a caller-allocated ULONGLONG variable into which the method writes a time value that specifies how far ahead to query for events. The time is specified in 100-nanosecond units. The port driver is responsible for sequencing any events that exceed the amount of time that the miniport driver specifies here.

Return Value

NewStream returns S_OK if the call was successful. Otherwise, the method returns an appropriate error code.

Comments

Note that the port driver creates the IAllocatorMXF object that the NewStream method inputs through the pAllocatorMXF parameter, but the miniport driver creates the IMXF object that the method outputs through the ppMXF parameter. For more information on IMXF and IAllocatorMXF, see MIDI Transport.

The ppMXF, pOuterUnknown, ppServiceGroup, pAllocatorMXF, and pMasterClock parameters follow the reference-counting conventions for COM objects.

The NewStream method is called at IRQL PASSIVE_LEVEL.
