+</pre></h3>
+<h1>Description</h1>
+<p>The Berkeley DB library requires the ability to specify that a subsequent read
+from or write to a file will occur at a specific location in that file.
+The <b>func_seek</b> argument must conform to the following interface:
+<p><blockquote><pre>int seek(int fd, size_t pgsize, db_pgno_t pageno,
+u_int32_t relative, int rewind, int whence);</pre></blockquote>
+<p>The <b>fd</b> argument is an open file descriptor on the file.
+<p>The <b>seek</b> function must cause a subsequent read from or write to
+the file to occur at a byte offset specified by the calculation:
+<p><blockquote><pre>(pgsize * pageno) + relative</pre></blockquote>
+<p>If <b>rewind</b> is non-zero, the byte offset is treated as a backwards
+seek, not a forwards one.
+<p>The <b>whence</b> argument specifies where in the file the byte offset
+is relative to, as described by the IEEE/ANSI Std 1003.1 (POSIX) <b>lseek</b> system
+call.
+<p>The <b>func_seek</b> function must return the value of <b>errno</b> on
+failure and 0 on success.
+<p>The db_env_set_func_seek interface affects the entire application, not a single
+database or database environment.
+<p>While the db_env_set_func_seek interface may be used to configure Berkeley DB at any time
+during the life of the application, it should normally be called before
+making any calls to the <a href="../api_c/env_create.html">db_env_create</a> or <a href="../api_c/db_create.html">db_create</a> functions.
+<p>The db_env_set_func_seek function returns a non-zero error value on failure and 0 on success.
+<h1>Errors</h1>

+<p><dt>EINVAL<dd>An invalid flag value or parameter was specified.
