If .next function does not change position index, following .show function will repeat output related to current position index. For /sys/kernel/security/tpm0/binary_bios_measurements: 1) read after lseek beyound end of file generates whole last line. 2) read after lseek to middle of last line generates expected end of last line and unexpected whole last line once again.
