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 LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN is a negative  number,  it
       isn't 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 received on the socket, or an SFTP
       operation caused an errorcode to be returned 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_UNSUPPORTED will be
       returned in this case.

AVAILABILITY

       Added in libssh2 1.4.4 and OpenSSH 6.3.
