  * @section sec_rt_asyncio_objects       Objects
  *
  * There are two objects used in this API.
- * The first object is the request. A request contains every information
- * needed two complete the file operation successfully like the start offset
- * and pointer to the source or destination buffer.
- * Requests are created with RTFileAioReqCreate() and destroyed with
- * RTFileAioReqDestroy().
- * Because creating a request may require allocating various operating
- * system dependent resources and may be quite expensive it is possible
- * to use a request more than once to save CPU cycles.
- * A request is constructed with either RTFileAioReqPrepareRead()
- * which will set up a request to read from the given file or
- * RTFileAioReqPrepareWrite() which will write to a given file.
- *
- * The second object is the context. A file is associated with a context
- * and requests for this file may complete only on the context the file
- * was associated with and not on the context given in RTFileAioCtxSubmit()
- * (see below for further information).
- * RTFileAioCtxWait() is used to wait for completion of requests which were
- * associated with the context. While waiting for requests the thread can not
- * respond to global state changes. That's why the API provides a way to let
- * RTFileAioCtxWait() return immediately no matter how many requests
- * have finished through RTFileAioCtxWakeup(). The return code is
- * VERR_INTERRUPTED to let the thread know that he got interrupted.

- * Created:
+ * @b Created:
  * After a request was created with RTFileAioReqCreate() it is in the same state
- * like it just completed successfully. RTFileAioReqGetRC() will return VINF_SUCCESS
- * and a transfer size of 0. RTFileAioReqGetUser() will return NULL. The request can be
- * destroyed RTFileAioReqDestroy(). It is also allowed to prepare a the request
- * for a data transfer with the RTFileAioReqPrepare* methods.
- * Calling any other method like RTFileAioCtxSubmit() will return VERR_FILE_AIO_NOT_PREPARED
- * and RTFileAioReqCancel() returns VERR_FILE_AIO_NOT_SUBMITTED.
- *
- * Prepared:
- * A request will enter this state if one of the RTFileAioReqPrepare* methods
- * is called. In this state you can still destroy and retrieve the user data
- * associated with the request but trying to cancel the request or getting
- * the result of the operation will return VERR_FILE_AIO_NOT_SUBMITTED.
- *
- * Submitted:
- * A prepared request can be submitted with RTFileAioCtxSubmit(). If the operation
- * succeeds it is not allowed to touch the request or free any resources until
- * it completed through RTFileAioCtxWait(). The only allowed method is RTFileAioReqCancel()
- * which tries to cancel the request. The request will go into the completed state
- * and RTFileAioReqGetRC() will return VERR_FILE_AIO_CANCELED.
- * If the request completes not matter if successfully or with an error it will
- * switch into the completed state. RTFileReqDestroy() fails if the given request
- * is in this state.

  * @section sec_rt_asyncio_implementations  Differences in implementation
  *
- * Because the host APIs are quite different on every OS and every API has other limitations
- * there are some things to consider to make the code as portable as possible.
- *
- * The first restriction at the moment is that every buffer has to be aligned to a 512 byte boundary.
- * This limitation comes from the Linux io_* interface. To use the interface the file
- * must be opened with O_DIRECT. This flag disables the kernel cache too which may
- * degrade performance but is unfortunately the only way to make asynchronous
- * I/O work till today (if O_DIRECT is omitted io_submit will revert to sychronous behavior
- * and will return when the requests finished and when they are queued).
- * It is mostly used by DBMS which do theire own caching.
- * Furthermore there is no filesystem independent way to discover the restrictions at least
- * for the 2.4 kernel series. Since 2.6 the 512 byte boundary seems to be used by all
- * file systems. So Linus comment about this flag is comprehensible but Linux
- * lacks an alternative at the moment.
- *
- * The next limitation applies only to Windows. Requests are not associated with the
- * I/O context they are associated with but with the file the request is for.
- * The file needs to be associated with exactly one I/O completion port and requests
- * for this file will only arrive at that context after they completed and not on
- * the context the request was submitted.
- * To associate a file with a specific context RTFileAioCtxAssociateWithFile() is
- * used. It is only implemented on Windows and does nothing on the other platforms.
- * If the file needs to be associated with different context for some reason
- * the file must be closed first. After it was opened again the new context
- * can be associated with the other context.
- * This can't be done by the API because there is no way to retrieve the flags
- * the file was opened with.
