For example, in a 4K block size character device, geom doesn't support writing / reading 515 byte blocks. The description is perhaps not applicable to all EINVALs returned. --- lib/libc/sys/read.2 | 4 +--- lib/libc/sys/write.2 | 4 +--- 2 files changed, 2 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/lib/libc/sys/read.2 b/lib/libc/sys/read.2 index 28d085562af3..8b58debd3fbb 100644 --- a/lib/libc/sys/read.2 +++ b/lib/libc/sys/read.2 @@ -28,7 +28,7 @@ .\" @(#)read.2 8.4 (Berkeley) 2/26/94 .\" $FreeBSD$ .\" -.Dd October 7, 2022 +.Dd June 4, 2020 .Dt READ 2 .Os .Sh NAME @@ -250,8 +250,6 @@ The sum of the values in the .Fa iov array overflowed a 32-bit integer. -.It Bq Er EINVAL -The current file offset is not a multiple of the block size. .It Bq Er EFAULT Part of the .Fa iov diff --git a/lib/libc/sys/write.2 b/lib/libc/sys/write.2 index 048338ed4dee..937e95b53a14 100644 --- a/lib/libc/sys/write.2 +++ b/lib/libc/sys/write.2 @@ -28,7 +28,7 @@ .\" @(#)write.2 8.5 (Berkeley) 4/2/94 .\" $FreeBSD$ .\" -.Dd October 7, 2022 +.Dd February 11, 2021 .Dt WRITE 2 .Os .Sh NAME @@ -205,8 +205,6 @@ is greater than if the sysctl .Va debug.iosize_max_clamp is non-zero). -.It Bq Er EINVAL -The current file offset is not a multiple of the block size. .It Bq Er EINTEGRITY The backing store for .Fa fd
