PS2:
You only included half the comment, though!
Yes I saw the fixme and considered "not all MTD drivers handle arbitrary large reads well." as the unexpected behavior.
I guess it was the chunking that was important not the alignment but the two were conflated in the comment.
I looked at the history and found things interesting.
- The implementation was using read/write in the beginning, and was changed by https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/2310521 (b/153598951) - to sync with upstream.
- The chunk was implemented on https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/505409/ (b/35573113) and yes, from there alignment is not important.
So yes, staying with libc is probably the right way.
