+  # call-seq:
+  #    SleepyPenguin.copy_file_range(src, dst, len[, keywords]) => # Integer
+  #
+  # Performs and in-kernel copy of +len+ bytes from +src+ to +dst+,
+  # where +src+ and +dst+ are regular files on the same filesystem.
+  # Returns the number of bytes copied, which may be less than
+  # requested.
+  #
+  # +flags+ is currently unused, but may be specified in the future.
+  #
+  # Keywords:
+  #
+  # :off_in and :off_out if non-nil may be used to specify an Integer
+  # offset for each respective descriptor.  If specified, the file
+  # offsets of each file description will not be moved, providing
+  # pread(2)/pwrite(2)-like semantics.
+  #
+  # See copy_file_range(2) manpage for full documentation:
+  # http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/copy_file_range.2.html
