EBX        Specifies the buffer identifier.
 
ESI        Specifies the region linear.
 
EDI        Specifies the offset within the buffer to the start of copying.
 
ECX        Specifies the size of the buffer.

The carry flag is clear if the data is copied from the DMA region into the
buffer. Otherwise, the carry flag is set and the AL register contains one of
the following error values:
