STATUS_TIMEOUT help?

NTDEV
1

Hi,

In an IRP processing, i’m using KeWaitForSingleObject for an object for specific time, the object is not signaed and the status comes as STATUS_TIMEOUT, and i’m completing the IRP with the timeout status. But in the application my deviceiocontrol call returns TRUE, but i want it to fail.

Any suggestions?

That is because status_timeout is not an error

//
// MessageId: STATUS_TIMEOUT
//
// MessageText:
//
// STATUS_TIMEOUT
//
#define STATUS_TIMEOUT ((NTSTATUS)0x00000102L) // winnt

In this situation, just look in ntstatus.h for a status with timeout in its name that is !NT_SUCCESS. In this case

//
// MessageId: STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT
//
// MessageText:
//
// {Device Timeout}
// The specified I/O operation on %hs was not completed before the time-out period expired.
//
#define STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT ((NTSTATUS)0xC00000B5L)
