RETURN VALUE
On success, the number of bytes read is returned (zero
indicates end of file), and the file position is advanced
by this number. It is not an error if this number is
smaller than the number of bytes requested; this may hap
pen for example because fewer bytes are actually available
right now (maybe because we were close to end-of-file, or
because we are reading from a pipe, or from a terminal),
or because read() was interrupted by a signal. On error,
-1 is returned, and errno is set appropriately. In this
case it is left unspecified whether the file position (if
any) changes.
