Does anyone know how to use VDS (Virtual DMA Specification, supplied
by QEMM, EMM-386, etc.)?  Can it be used, for instance, to read data
from disk into memory & letting the transfer go on while the specified
memory block is unmapped (say by a task-switch)?

[ If someone can just tell me where to find the VDS docs, it would be
  even better... ]
