| region | read | DMA region to read. |

| count | read | Number of elements of the data to receive. |
This function starts a non-blocking read from a specific DMA region region. It posts a request to read the remote data with its own format information. The data received locally will be treated as count elements of the format and will be stored starting at address.
On return of this function, the variable pointed by request contains an opaque request that should be used later to wait or test the completion of the read operation.
| Error Code | Description |
| A0ErrFailSend | It was not possible to send a request. |
| A0ErrFailReceive | It was not possible to receive a reply. |
| A0ErrInvFormat | The format has an invalid type. |
| A0ErrNotImplem | The format has an unimplemented type. |
| A0ErrOk | Successful completion. |
