24 * POSIX_FADV_WILLNEED could set PG_Referenced, and POSIX_FADV_NOREUSE could
25 * deactivate the pages and clear PG_Referenced.
27 * LINUX_FADV_ASYNC_WRITE: start async writeout of any dirty pages between file
28 * offsets `offset' and `offset+len' inclusive. Any pages which are currently
29 * under writeout are skipped, whether or not they are dirty.
31 * LINUX_FADV_WRITE_WAIT: wait upon writeout of any dirty pages between file
32 * offsets `offset' and `offset+len'.
34 * By combining these two operations the application may do several things:
36 * LINUX_FADV_ASYNC_WRITE: push some or all of the dirty pages at the disk.
38 * LINUX_FADV_WRITE_WAIT, LINUX_FADV_ASYNC_WRITE: push all of the currently
39 * dirty pages at the disk.
41 * LINUX_FADV_WRITE_WAIT, LINUX_FADV_ASYNC_WRITE, LINUX_FADV_WRITE_WAIT: push
42 * all of the currently dirty pages at the disk, wait until they have been
43 * written.
45 * It should be noted that none of these operations write out the file's
46 * metadata. So unless the application is strictly performing overwrites of
47 * already-instantiated disk blocks, there are no guarantees here that the data
48 * will be available after a crash.
