This is actually a Vista+ function, but we need it enable umpnpmgr.dll to notify services of device events. Up until WinXP it was possible to make direct calls to the service manager by umpnpmgr.dll because umpnpmgr.dll was loaded into the service manager process. From Vista onwards umpnpmgr.dll is run as a separate service host process. And since ReactOS always ran umpnpmgr.dll as a separate process, we have to use the Vista RPC functions to notify services.
- Reserve the pipe NtControlPipe0 for the security process.
- Count regular service control pipes from 1.
- Use I_ScIsSecurityProcess to identify the security process.
- Services.exe uses the SECURITY_SERVICES_STARTED event to notify the security process that NtControlPipe0 is ready for use.
This fixes the following compiler error:
../dll/win32/advapi32/service/eventlog.c:658:59: error: passing argument 3 of 'ElfrChangeNotify' makes integer from pointer without a cast [-Werror=int-conversion]
dll/win32/advapi32/eventlogrpc_c.h:391:20: note: expected 'ULONG {aka long unsigned int}' but argument is of type 'HANDLE {aka void *}'
Also comment about the observed behaviour of the returned number of "characters"
returned by the ANSI versions of these APIs (which is tested by advapi32_winetest:service).
[ADVAPI32:SCM] Add a comment concerning wide characters vs. bytes mismatch.
- Encrypt passwords before passing them to the service manager. Right now, we are using a fixed encryption key. This will be fixed later.
- Replace the calls to ZeroMemory which are used to wipe the password buffers by calls to SecureZeroMemory.
ScControlService:
- SEH-protext the calls to service control handlers.
- Return ERROR_EXCEPTION_IN_SERVICE if a service control handler throws an exception.
- Return ERROR_SERVICE_CANNOT_ACCEPT_CTRL if no service control handler has been registered for the service.
- Set some last errors.
- Fix error code returned by ScLookupServiceByServiceName().
- Check the validity of the handler proc in RegisterServiceCtrlHandler(Ex)W().
- Improve some traces; comment some code.
services\database.c:
- Refactor ScmControlService() so that it can be used to send the dispatcher loop stop command.
- Separate the code to decrement the image run counter from the service image cleanup code.
services\rpcserver.c:
- RSetServiceStatus(): Stop the dispatcher loop when the image run counter is zero and remove the service image after that.
advapi32\service\sctrl.c:
- Do not terminate the service dispatcher loop when the last service is being stopped. Wait for an explicit dispatcher stop command (empty service name).
