Pointers

_pvddepHead points to the head of a chain of VDDEP structres. One is allocated for each VDD the registers an either or both a VDD/VDD or VDD/OS2 entry point. There entry points are used respectively when either a VDHRequestVDD/VDHOpenVDD or DosRequestVDD/DosOpenVDD call is made.

VDDEP field vddep_vddp points to the associated chain of VDDPROC structures. One is allocated for each VDD the registers entry points under the same name.

_phdlVddHead points to the head of a chain of HDLVDD structures. One is allocated for each open VDD. The handle returned is the address of the associated HDLVDD.

_ppddephead points to the head of a chain of PDDEP structures. One is allocated for each Physical Device Driver that registers an entry point for VDD/PDD communication. The entry point is registered using DevHlp_RegisterPDD, and accessed using VDHRequestPDD.

VDDEPs, VDDPROCs, HDLVDDs and PDDEPs are allocated dynamically from the kernel resident heap.

VDDEP owner id: vddep (0xffd2).

VDDPROC owner id: vddproc (0xffdb).

HDLVDD owner id: vddlr (0xffd7).

PDDEP owner id: vddpddep (0xffda).
