Subject: [PATCH] tac: handle short reads on input
This can be reproduced by getting the read() above 2G,
which induces a short read, thus triggering the erroneous failure.
$ truncate -s 5G 5G
$ cat 5G | TMPDIR=$PWD tac | wc -c
tac: /tmp/tacFt7txA: read error: Illegal seek
0
With the fix in place we now get:
$ cat 5G | TMPDIR=$PWD src/tac | wc -c
5368709120
* src/tac.c (tac_seekable): Use full_read() to handle short reads.
* NEWS: Mention the bug fix.

* Noteworthy changes in release 9.0 (2021-09-24) [stable]
** Bug fixes
+ tac now handles short reads on its input. Previously it may have exited
+ erroneously, especially with large input files with no separators.
+ [This bug was present in "the beginning".]
+
`wc -c` will again correctly update the read offset of inputs.
Previously it deduced the size of inputs while leaving the offset unchanged.
[bug introduced in coreutils-8.27]
