You can't use a loop of reads, the read must be atomic. I thought that's why you are allocating a new buffer.

I've cleaned up the code and removed the problematic logic that attempted to handle reads individually.

The new implementation will focus on ensuring atomicity by performing a single read operation into a contiguous buffer, as required by POSIX readv() semantics.
