without whence:
xfs_io> seek -ar 0
HOLE 0
DATA 528384
HOLE 532480
DATA 819200
HOLE 823296
xfs_io> seek -dh 512k
HOLE 524288
DATA 528384
xfs_io> seek -rd 0
DATA 528384
DATA 819200
============
after with whence:
xfs_io> seek -ar 0:
HOLE 0 0
DATA 0 528384
HOLE 528384 532480
DATA 532480 819200
HOLE 819200 823296
xfs_io> seek -dh 512k:
HOLE 524288
DATA 528384
xfs_io> seek -rd 0
DATA 0 528384
DATA 532480 819200
Seems to make most sense in the case of -rd and -rh
