No way to do something like "read in file to make sure it's cached,
then invalidate caches from position X with POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED, then
do a read that crosses that cached/uncached boundary"?
To at least verify that "partly synchronous, but partly punted to async" case?
Or were you talking about some other situation?
