Am I correct to understand if a file is unaligned and byte-range
request is sent from say the middle of the file to few bytes "before
the end of the file" that the aio call will not block and it will
only block if reading from the beginning of the file and at the end
of the file?<br></div></blockquote></div><div><br></div>No, any unaligned access is a blocking operation. This text should be fixed.<div><br><div>
