                  Initiates an asynchronous operation to read one or more bytes of
                  data from the device <code class="computeroutput">a</code> at the offset <code class="computeroutput">o</code>.
                  The operation is performed via the <code class="computeroutput">io_service</code> object
                  <code class="computeroutput">a.get_io_service()</code> and behaves according to <a class="link" href="asynchronous_operations.html" title="Requirements on asynchronous operations">asynchronous operation</a>
                  requirements.<br> <br> The mutable buffer sequence <code class="computeroutput">mb</code>
                  specifies memory where the data should be placed. The <code class="computeroutput">async_read_some_at</code>
                  operation shall always fill a buffer in the sequence completely
                  before proceeding to the next.<br> <br> The implementation
                  shall maintain one or more copies of <code class="computeroutput">mb</code> 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:<br> <br> — the last copy of <code class="computeroutput">mb</code>
                  is destroyed, or<br> <br> — the handler for the asynchronous
                  read operation is invoked,<br> <br> whichever comes first.<br>
                  <br> If the total size of all buffers in the sequence <code class="computeroutput">mb</code>
                  is <code class="computeroutput">0</code>, the asynchronous read operation shall complete
                  immediately and pass <code class="computeroutput">0</code> as the argument to the handler
                  that specifies the number of bytes read.
