Subject: [Bug 82841] sendfile doesn't work with O_APPEND
Date: Fri, 22 Aug 2014 08:31:48 +0000	[thread overview]

--- Comment #3 from Alan <alan-qBU/x9rampVanCEyBjwyrvXRex20P6io@public.gmane.org> ---
sendfile is just a wrapper around splice()

Whether it could therefore support O_APPEND is a good question - but one that
would need asking and discussing on the lists not here, and someone to
contribute the patches to do so.

In the meantime we ought to get the man page fixed.
