Random access handle service requirements

A random access handle service must meet the requirements for a handle service, as well as the additional requirements listed below.

In the table below, X denotes a random access handle service class, a denotes a value of type X, b denotes a value of type X::implementation_type, ec denotes a value of type error_code, o denotes an offset of type boost::uint64_t, mb denotes a value satisfying mutable buffer sequence requirements, rh denotes a value meeting ReadHandler requirements, cb denotes a value satisfying constant buffer sequence requirements, and wh denotes a value meeting WriteHandler requirements.

Table 21. RandomAccessHandleService requirements

expression	return type	assertion/note pre/post-condition
`a.read_some_at(b, o, mb, ec);`	`size_t`	pre: `a.is_open(b)`. Reads one or more bytes of data from a handle `b` at offset `o`. The mutable buffer sequence `mb` specifies memory where the data should be placed. The operation shall always fill a buffer in the sequence completely before proceeding to the next. If successful, returns the number of bytes read. Otherwise returns `0`. If the total size of all buffers in the sequence `mb` is `0`, the function shall return `0` immediately.
`a.async_read_some_at(b, o, mb, rh);`	`void`	pre: `a.is_open(b)`. Initiates an asynchronous operation to read one or more bytes of data from a handle `b` at offset `o`. The operation is performed via the `io_service` object `a.get_io_service()` and behaves according to asynchronous operation requirements. The mutable buffer sequence `mb` specifies memory where the data should be placed. The operation shall always fill a buffer in the sequence completely before proceeding to the next. The implementation shall maintain one or more copies of `mb` until such time as the read operation no longer requires access to the memory specified by the buffers in the sequence. The program must ensure the memory is valid until: — the last copy of `mb` is destroyed, or — the handler for the asynchronous operation is invoked, whichever comes first. If the total size of all buffers in the sequence `mb` is `0`, the asynchronous read operation shall complete immediately and pass `0` as the argument to the handler that specifies the number of bytes read. If the operation completes successfully, the `ReadHandler` object `rh` is invoked with the number of bytes transferred. Otherwise it is invoked with `0`.
`a.write_some_at(b, o, cb, ec);`	`size_t`	pre: `a.is_open(b)`. Writes one or more bytes of data to a handle `b` at offset `o`. The constant buffer sequence `cb` specifies memory where the data to be written is located. The operation shall always write a buffer in the sequence completely before proceeding to the next. If successful, returns the number of bytes written. Otherwise returns `0`. If the total size of all buffers in the sequence `cb` is `0`, the function shall return `0` immediately.
`a.async_write_some_at(b, o, cb, wh);`	`void`	pre: `a.is_open(b)`. Initiates an asynchronous operation to write one or more bytes of data to a handle `b` at offset `o`. The operation is performed via the `io_service` object `a.get_io_service()` and behaves according to asynchronous operation requirements. The constant buffer sequence `cb` specifies memory where the data to be written is located. The operation shall always write a buffer in the sequence completely before proceeding to the next. The implementation shall maintain one or more copies of `cb` until such time as the write operation no longer requires access to the memory specified by the buffers in the sequence. The program must ensure the memory is valid until: — the last copy of `cb` is destroyed, or — the handler for the asynchronous operation is invoked, whichever comes first. If the total size of all buffers in the sequence `cb` is `0`, the asynchronous operation shall complete immediately and pass `0` as the argument to the handler that specifies the number of bytes read. If the operation completes successfully, the `WriteHandler` object `wh` is invoked with the number of bytes transferred. Otherwise it is invoked with `0`.
