sync - update the super block
SYNOPSIS
sync
sync executes the sync system primitive. If the system is to be stopped, sync must be called to ensure file system integrity. It will flush
all previously unwritten system buffers out to disk, thus assuring that all file modifications up to that point will be saved. See sync(2)
