The prop_dictionary_sendrecv_ioctl function combines the send and receive functionality, allowing for ioctls that require two-way communication (for example to specify arguments for the ioctl operation).
prop_array_recv_ioctl() and prop_dictionary_recv_ioctl() will fail if:
In addition to these, ioctl(2) errors may be returned.
