IOCTL_DISK_SET_CACHE_INFORMATION IOCTL (winioctl.h)

  • Article

Sets the disk configuration data.

To perform this operation, call the DeviceIoControl function with the following parameters.

BOOL DeviceIoControl(
  (HANDLE) hDevice,                 // handle to device
  IOCTL_DISK_SET_CACHE_INFORMATION, // dwIoControlCode
  (LPVOID) lpInBuffer,              // input buffer
  (DWORD) nInBufferSize,            // size of input buffer
  NULL,                             // lpOutBuffer
  0,                                // nOutBufferSize
  (LPDWORD) lpBytesReturned,        // number of bytes returned
  (LPOVERLAPPED) lpOverlapped       // OVERLAPPED structure
);

Remarks

To retrieve the cache information, use the IOCTL_DISK_GET_CACHE_INFORMATION control code.
