sync_file_range - sync a file segment with disk
In Linux, sync_file_range() accepts three flags:
SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE
Wait upon write-out of all pages in the specified range that
have already been submitted to the device driver for write-out
before performing any write.
SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE
Initiate write-out of all dirty pages in the specified range
which are not presently submitted write-out. Note that even
this may block if you attempt to write more than request queue
size.
SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_AFTER
Wait upon write-out of all pages in the range after performing
any write.
In this implementation:
SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE without SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_AFTER isn't
supported right now.
SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WRITE is skipped. It should initiate write-out of all
dirty pages, but it doesn't wait, so it should be safe to do nothing
while nobody uses SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_BEFORE.
SYNC_FILE_RANGE_WAIT_AFTER is equal to fdatasync(). In Linux,
sync_file_range() doesn't writes out the file's meta-data, but
fdatasync() does if a file size is changed.
