I'm trying to write a simple char device for linux, I need to read and write the device by fread/fwrite and use fopen and fseek. I've written a simple test program to use my device and I've noted that fpos in fseek function doesn't work and unknow fread after fseek appears. I cannot get the device working because fseek doesn't get a correct file position when opened in r+ mode, everything works except fread if I use file opened in w mode instead.
Thanks folks

You are using stdio (fread, fseek, etc.) which generally has a buffer of sorts. It may not necessarily translate directly to the syscalls, hence the "unexpected" reads and seeks.
