NAME
sync - update super block SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h> void sync(void); DESCRIPTION
The sync() function writes all information in memory that should be on disk, including modified super blocks, modified inodes, and delayed block I/O. Unlike fsync(3C), which completes the writing before it returns, sync() schedules but does not necessarily complete the writing before returning. USAGE
The sync() function should be used by applications that examine a file system, such as fsck(1M), and df(1M), and is mandatory before rebooting. ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Interface Stability |Standard | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ SEE ALSO
