Is there any particular reason why we do not gate Linux pread()/pwrite() syscalls into our kernel's version of the same functions? Linux and BSD manpages don't seem to indicate that there's some difference, but I note that Linux emulation currently defines them as stubs only. Interbase 6.0 Linux binaries seem to run fine when the appropriate gating of this syscall is done. It apparently uses pread()/pwrite() extensively for accessing databases, and there's been no sign of corruption of any problem at all.
