Deviceiocontrol is returning empty buffer when communicating with 64 bit device driver

64-bit

Hi ,
I am using window 7 64 bit and 64 bit device driver,
When i am trying to use the function DeviceIoControl(), the output buffer is always empty but the number of bytes returned is 4.


The exact syntax is given below

DeviceIoControl(m_device, IOCTL_USER_BUFFER, NULL, 0,
	   &outbuffer, sizeof(UINT_PTR), &Bytes, NULL);

The datatype of outbuffer is PBYTE and Bytes is DWORD

#define IOCTL_USER_BUFFER CTL_CODE(FILE_DEVICE_UNKNOWN, \
                                                 0x801, \
                                                 METHOD_BUFFERED, \
                                                 FILE_ANY_ACCESS)

But when i use the DeviceIoControl function for "0x800", I am able to receive buffer.

Please suggest me if i am missing something.
