17  * MS_SYNC syncs the entire file - including mappings.
18  *
19  * MS_ASYNC does not start I/O (it used to, up to 2.5.67).
20  * Nor does it marks the relevant pages dirty (it used to up to 2.6.17).
21  * Now it doesn't do anything, since dirty pages are properly tracked.
22  *
23  * The application may now run fsync() to
24  * write out the dirty pages and wait on the writeout and check the result.
25  * Or the application may run fadvise(FADV_DONTNEED) against the fd to start
26  * async writeout immediately.
27  * So by _not_ starting I/O in MS_ASYNC we provide complete flexibility to
28  * applications.
