MiniportEnableInterruptis an optional function, supplied by some drivers of network adapters that support dynamic enabling and disabling of interrupts but do not share an IRQ.

VOID
MiniportEnableInterrupt(
IN NDIS_HANDLE
MiniportAdapterContext
);

Parameters

MiniportAdapterContext

Specifies the handle to a miniport-allocated context area in which the driver maintains per-network adapter state, set up by MiniportInitialize.

Comments

MiniportEnableInterrupttypically enables interrupts by writing a mask to the network adapter.

A network adapter driver that exports a MiniportDisableInterruptfunction need not have a reciprocal MiniportEnableInterruptfunction. Such a driver's MiniportHandleInterruptfunction is responsible for re-enabling interrupts on the network adapter.

If its network adapter does not support dynamic enabling and disabling of interrupts, the network adapter driver must register a MiniportISRfunction and set RequestIsrto TRUE when it calls NdisMRegisterMiniport. Such a driver's MiniportISRfunction must acknowledge each interrupt generated by the network adapter and save any necessary interrupt information for the driver's MiniportHandleInterruptfunction.
