Goal
Why is "db file sequential read" and "db file scattered read" not doing async I/O reads even though Async I/O related database parameters (disk_asynch_io and filesystemio_options) are set at database level? The database files reside on ext4 file system and Async I/O is also enabled at OS and filesystem level. But still "db file sequential read" and "db file scattered read" are reading the datafiles using "pread" OS calls (i.e.) synchronous read I/O instead of async I/O reads.
