Testing short reads/writes handling

Question

Good applications should expect short reads/write almost everywhere.

But actually, for example, when reading small number of bytes from filesystem or from pipe short reads just [almost] never occur and defects in it's handling can remain undetected.

How to test group of applications interconnected by pipes and sockets and reading and writing files for carefullness of handling of short reads/writes?

Expecting to see such tools at various levels:

• just filter thing: ./prog1 | short_tester | ./prog2
• library interceptor: LD_PRELOAD=libshort_tester.so sh -c "./prog1 | ./prog2"
• kernel module: modprobe short_tester; echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/short_tester; ./prog1 | ./prog2;

If unmodified pipeline is prog1 writes "0123456789" and prog2 reads "0123456789" then modified pipe is like:

1. prog1 writes "0123"
2. prog1 writes "4"
3. prog2 reads "01"
4. prog1 writes "567"
5. prog2 reads "23456"
6. prog2 reads "7"
7. prog1 writes "89"
8. prog2 reads "89"

Are there already tools for this?
