It appears that kwrite is not failing, even though we must be writing
past the end of the disk at this point. This sounds like it could be
a bug in the /dev/lv00 drivers.
shred should try "lseek (fd, 0, SEEK_END)": did that fail too?
It wasn't in your truss extract.
Do you get the same failure when you write to a raw device?
Is there some approved-by-AIX method to find out the size of a device
like /dev/lv00?
