WFM. I noticed you don't have an EINTR retry loop, but the man page doesn't say you need one, so overall this patch LGTM. + * posix_fadvise() is the simplest standardized interface that accomplishes + * this. We could add an implementation using libaio in the future; but note + * that this API is inappropriate for libaio, which wants to have a buffer + * provided to read into. I would consider just dropping that comment about libaio, if touching this paragraph. Proposals exist for AIO of course, but not with libaio, and better predictions with useful discussion of the topic seem unlikely to fit in this margin.
