NAME

       rfio_lseek - positions/repositions a file

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include "rfio_api.h"

       off_t rfio_lseek (int s, off_t offset, int how);

       Under Linux, for large files:
       #define _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE
       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include "rfio_api.h"

       off64_t rfio_lseek64 (int s, off64_t offset, int how);

       For large files, under other systems:
       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include "rfio_api.h"

       off64_t rfio_lseek64 (int s, off64_t offset, int how);

DESCRIPTION

       rfio_lseek  positions/repositions  to  offset  the  file  associated with the descriptor s
       generated by a previous rfio_open.  how indicates how to interpret the offset value:

              SEEK_SET     The offset is set from beginning of file.

              SEEK_CUR     The offset is added to current position.

              SEEK_END     The offset is added to current file size.

       rfio_lseek64 performs the same function on large files using off64_t rather than off_t.

RETURN VALUE

       This routine returns -1 if the operation failed or the actual offset from the beginning of
       file. In case of failure, serrno is set appropriately.

ERRORS

       EBADF        s is not a valid descriptor.

       EINVAL       incorrect value for how.

       SENOSHOST    Host unknown.

       SENOSSERV    Service unknown.

       SETIMEDOUT   Timed out.

       SEBADVERSION Version ID mismatch.

       SEINTERNAL   Internal error.

       SECONNDROP   Connection closed by remote end.

       SECOMERR     Communication error.
