And according to the official document: If xRead() returns SQLITE_IOERR_SHORT_READ it must also fill in the unread portions of the buffer with zeros. A VFS that fails to zero-fill short reads might seem to work. However, failure to zero-fill short reads will eventually lead to database corruption.

It is a fatal error. The only time it is okay is after the file is first created (zero length) and SQLite tries to read the header page which doesn't exist at that point in time. At all other times a short error is fatal. The extended error code is so that the caller has more details than just I/O error.
