lseek.2: ERRORS: ENXIO can also occur SEEK_DATA in middle of hole at end of file
Quoting Matthew Wilcox:
The current text of the lseek manpage is ambiguous about
the behaviour of lseek(SEEK_DATA) for a file which is
entirely a hole (or the end of the file is a hole and the
pos lies within the hole). The draft POSIX language is
specific (ENXIO is returned when whence is SEEK_DATA and
offset lies within the final hole of the file). Could I
trouble you to wordsmith that in?
If you want to look at the draft POSIX text, it's here:
