split I/O request
1. An I/O request to a virtual disk that requires two or more I/O operations to satisfy, because the virtual data addresses in the request map to more than one extent on one or more disks.
2. An application I/O request that is divided into two or more sub-requests by a file system or other operating system component because the amount of data requested is too large for the operating environment to handle as a unit.
