50 | <h3>DESCRIPTION</h3> | |
51 | <p> | |
52 | The <strong>device_read_async</strong> interface enqueues a read operation for a | |
53 | sequence of bytes from a device object. The meaning of recnum as well | |
54 | as the specific operation performed is device dependent. | |
55 | <h3>RETURN VALUES</h3> | |
56 | <dl> | |
57 | <strong>device_read_async</strong> returns only invalid parameter errors. | |
58 | <dd> | |
59 | </dl> | |
