EIO is reasonable for a read some distance off the end of the store.
Reading precisely at the end should report EOF (return
Hi,
when reading past the end of a storeio provided file, you get EIO because
offset is equal to the size of the underlying store, but the only offset
check is in dev_rw:
if (offs < 0 || offs > dev->store->size)
return EINVAL;
else if (offs + len > dev->store->size)
len = dev->store-
