Gidday Samuel,
Thanks for your report. I patched both read.2 and write.2.
A little more needed to be said:
EINVAL fd is attached to an object which is unsuitable
for reading; or the file was opened with the
O_DIRECT flag, and either the address specified in
buf, the value specified in count, or the current
file offset is not suitably aligned.
This fix will appear in man-pages-2.09.
Cheers,
Michael
