132 * sys_sync_file_range() permits finely controlled syncing over a segment of
133 * a file in the range offset .. (offset+nbytes-1) inclusive. If nbytes is
134 * zero then sys_sync_file_range() will operate from offset out to EOF.
138 * SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE: wait upon writeout of all pages in the range
139 * before performing the write.
141 * SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE: initiate writeout of all those dirty pages in the
142 * range which are not presently under writeback.
144 * SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_AFTER: wait upon writeout of all pages in the range
145 * after performing the write.
147 * Useful combinations of the flag bits are:
149 * SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE|SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE: ensures that all pages
150 * in the range which were dirty on entry to sys_sync_file_range() are placed
151 * under writeout. This is a start-write-for-data-integrity operation.
153 * SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE: start writeout of all dirty pages in the range which
154 * are not presently under writeout. This is an asynchronous flush-to-disk
155 * operation. Not suitable for data integrity operations.
157 * SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE (or SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_AFTER): wait for
158 * completion of writeout of all pages in the range. This will be used after an
159 * earlier SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE|SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE operation to wait
160 * for that operation to complete and to return the result.
162 * SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE|SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE|SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_AFTER:
163 * a traditional sync() operation. This is a write-for-data-integrity operation
164 * which will ensure that all pages in the range which were dirty on entry to
165 * sys_sync_file_range() are committed to disk.
168 * SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE and SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_AFTER will detect any
169 * I/O errors or ENOSPC conditions and will return those to the caller, after
170 * clearing the EIO and ENOSPC flags in the address_space.
172 * It should be noted that none of these operations write out the file's
173 * metadata. So unless the application is strictly performing overwrites of
174 * already-instantiated disk blocks, there are no guarantees here that the data
175 * will be available after a crash.
