libssh2_sftp_fsync(3)		     libssh2		   libssh2_sftp_fsync(3)

NAME
     libssh2_sftp_fsync - synchronize file to disk

SYNOPSIS
     #include <libssh2.h>
     #include <libssh2_sftp.h>

     int
     libssh2_sftp_fsync(LIBSSH2_SFTP_HANDLE *handle)

DESCRIPTION
     This  function  causes  the  remote server to synchronize the file data and
     metadata to disk (like fsync(2)).

     For this to work requires fsync@openssh.com support on the server.

     handle - SFTP File Handle as returned by libssh2_sftp_open_ex(3)

RETURN VALUE
     Returns 0 on success or negative on failure. If used in non-blocking  mode,
     it  returns  LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN when it would otherwise block. While LIB-
     SSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN is a negative number, it is not really a failure per se.

ERRORS
     LIBSSH2_ERROR_ALLOC - An internal memory allocation call failed.

     LIBSSH2_ERROR_SOCKET_SEND - Unable to send data on socket.

     LIBSSH2_ERROR_SFTP_PROTOCOL - An invalid SFTP  protocol  response	was  re-
     ceived  on  the  socket, or an SFTP operation caused an errorcode to be re-
     turned by the server. In particular, this can be returned if the SSH server
     does not support the fsync operation: the SFTP subcode LIBSSH2_FX_OP_UNSUP-
     PORTED will be returned in this case.

AVAILABILITY
     Added in libssh2 1.4.4 and OpenSSH 6.3.
