. Well, offset 0 for 8k appears to be cached correctly. I do not
.understand (yet, I'm working on it) why we are even attempting to
.read bp->b_blkno==1 since it doesn't exist. Yes, the file is 8k.

.
. Any comments (helpful) or critiques (telling me I'm looking in the
.wrong place) are welcome.
.
.ps: If the file size is 8193, then block numbers 0 & 1 are always
. cached, but the last block, 2, for 1 byte length, is never
. found in the cache.
.
.pss: I almost think I'm looking for a bad length comparison.
No, but probably you expect the EOF detection in the wrong place. The
cache caches data but obviously not the EOF (=error condition on reading
last block). At least it does not tell you that it found an EOF.
Did you snoop on the wire to see if a request for that last block leaves
your system? Would be interested to see the answer.
