INT 7C - SK-UPPS Data Link Interface API - REQUEST BUFFER AX = 0004h DX = protocol ID (see AX=0007h) Return: AX = completion code (see also AX=0001h) 0000h successful ES:BX -> Memory Buffer (Mbuf) (see below) Note: if the DLI has no free Mbufs, it will set an internal flag for the protocol and later call the protocol's Event Upcall with EV_BUFFER_AVAILABLE (see AX=0007h) as soon as an Mbuf becomes available. There will only be one "buffer available" Upcall, even if this function has been called several times before.
