.Nm fdatasync
|
|
.Nd synchronise the data of a file
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Fd #include <unistd.h>
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn fdatasync "int filedes"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn fdatasync
|
|
function forces all currently queued I/O operations associated with
|
|
the file indicated by the file descriptor
|
|
.Fa filedes
|
|
to the synchronised I/O completition state.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The functionality is as described for
|
|
.Xr fsync 2 ,
|
|
with the exception that all I/O operations are completed as defined
|
|
for synchronised I/O data integrity completion.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
If successful, the
|
|
.Fn fdatasync
|
|
function returns the value 0. Otherwise, the function returns the
|
|
value -1 and sets
|
|
.Dv errno
|
|
to indicate the error. If the
|
|
.Fn fdatasync
|
|
function fails, outstanding I/O operations are not
|
|
guaranteed to have been completed.
|
|
.Sh ERRORS

|
|
.Fn fdatasync
|
|
returns the eror conditions defined for
