SendIO

initiate an I/O command

This function requests the device driver start processing the given I/O request. The device will return control without waiting for the I/O to complete.

The io_Flags field of the IORequest will be set to zero before the request is sent. See BeginIO() for more details.

Attempting to call SendIO() on an I/O request which is currently being processed is likely to result in undefined behaviour and may crash the system. If you must reuse an I/O request, check first with CheckIO() if it is not currently in use.
