Controlling cd/dvd drive's cache

Hello all,

I had inquired about this a while back and never got a response, so
thought I'd ask again.

Is there a way to control the hardware cache on cdrom drives in OS X?  For
example, I would like to turn caching on/off, force a flush of the cache,
etc. It seems there should be an ioctl() to do this.  But, all my
searching has turned up nothing.  What have I missed?
