IoVerifyPartitionTable function (ntddk.h)

The IoVerifyPartitionTable routine checks the validity of the partition table for a disk.

Syntax

NTSTATUS IoVerifyPartitionTable(
  [in] PDEVICE_OBJECT DeviceObject,
  [in] BOOLEAN        FixErrors
);

Parameters

[in] DeviceObject

Specifies the device object of the disk to verify.

[in] FixErrors

Specifies if the routine should correct any correctable errors in the partition table.

Return value

The routine returns STATUS_SUCCESS if the partition table is error-free.

If the caller specifies FALSE for the FixErrors parameter and the partition table has errors, the routine returns STATUS_DISK_CORRUPT_ERROR. If the caller specifies TRUE for FixErrors, and the routine is able to correct all errors in the partition table, it returns STATUS_SUCCESS. Otherwise it returns STATUS_DISK_CORRUPT_ERROR.

The routine might also return other NT status error codes.

Remarks

IoVerifyPartitionTable must be used only by disk drivers.
