This method is not reading data into the supplied byte buffer at all. In the Java source code, many of the implementations that implement this method use the static method IOUtil.read. Within that implementation you can see that data is clearly being read into the ByteBuffer. Whereas in the MantaSeekableByteChannel implementation no data is being read into the ByteBuffer.
Looking at our implementation of MantaSeekableByteChannel.read(ByteBuffer) it appears that we don't follow the API contract:
