50 This function is used to asynchronously read data from the stream. This
51 call always returns immediately. The asynchronous operation will continue
52 until one of the following conditions is true:
54 <div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
56 One or more bytes are read from the stream.
63 The algorithm, known as a <span class="emphasis"><em>composed asynchronous operation</em></span>,
64 is implemented in terms of calls to the next layer's <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">async_read_some</span></code>
65 function. The program must ensure that no other calls to <a class="link" href="read_some.html" title="basic_stream::read_some"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">basic_stream</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">read_some</span></code></a> or <a class="link" href="async_read_some.html" title="basic_stream::async_read_some"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">basic_stream</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">async_read_some</span></code></a> are performed
66 until this operation completes. If the timeout timer expires while the
67 operation is outstanding, the operation will be canceled and the completion
68 handler will be invoked with the error <a class="link" href="../boost__beast__error.html" title="error"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">timeout</span></code></a>.

100 The buffers into which the data will be read. If the size of
101 the buffers is zero bytes, the operation always completes immediately
102 with no error. Although the buffers object may be copied as necessary,
103 ownership of the underlying memory blocks is retained by the
104 caller, which must guarantee that they remain valid until the

118 The implementation takes ownership of the handler by performing
119 a decay-copy. The equivalent function signature of the handler

128 Regardless of whether the asynchronous operation completes immediately
129 or not, the handler will not be invoked from within this function.
130 Invocation of the handler will be performed in a manner equivalent
131 to using <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">net</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">post</span></code>.

142 The <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">async_read_some</span></code> operation
143 may not receive all of the requested number of bytes. Consider using the
144 function <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">net</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">async_read</span></code> if you need to ensure that
145 the requested amount of data is read before the asynchronous operation
