As btrfs showed, a partial read of data in AIO /O_DIRECT circumstances can really confuse MariaDB. Filipe Manana (SuSE)[1] showed how database programmers can assume O_DIRECT is all or nothing. While a fix was done in the kernel side, we can do better in our code by requesting that the rest of the block be read/written synchronously if we do only get a partial read/write. Per the APIs, a partial read/write can occur before an error, so reattempting the request will leave the caller with a concrete error to handle.
