Well, if a mysql-supplied program is trying read the relay log using a
buffered read, when it's being written using Direct I/O, that's a bug
in mysql, and it should be reported as such to the mysql folks.

It does look like there is a newer way of doing replication which
doesn't rely on messign with log files.   From:

    https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/replication.html

    MySQL 8.0 supports different methods of replication. The
    traditional method is based on replicating events from the
    source's binary log, and requires the log files and positions in
    them to be synchronized between source and replica. The newer
    method based on global transaction identifiers (GTIDs) is
    transactional and therefore does not require working with log
    files or positions within these files, which greatly simplifies
    many common replication tasks. Replication using GTIDs guarantees
    consistency between source and replica as long as all transactions
    committed on the source have also been applied on the replica. For
    more information about GTIDs and GTID-based replication in MySQL,
    see Section 17.1.3, “Replication with Global Transaction
    Identifiers”. For information on using binary log file position
    based replication, see Section 17.1, “Configuring Replication”.

Perhaps you can try and see how mysql handles GTID-based replication
using bpftrace?
