If you feel the need to be extra cautious, you could also put: #ifndef HAVE_PWRITEV2 assert(pwritev2_flags == 0); #endif ...just after the getopt parsing to make sure that we never silently drop RWF_* flags due to code bugs. --D > case 's': > skip = cvtnum(fsblocksize, fssectsize, optarg); > if (skip < 0) { > diff --git a/man/man8/xfs_io.8 b/man/man8/xfs_io.8 > index 0fd9b951..9c58914f 100644 > --- a/man/man8/xfs_io.8 > +++ b/man/man8/xfs_io.8 > @@ -282,6 +282,12 @@ Use the vectored IO write syscall > with a number of blocksize length iovecs.
