Michael Kerrisk c6a16930af Incorporated material from now deleted fdatasync.2. 2007-07-08 19:32:37 +00:00
Michael Kerrisk cb7bf8ac29 Somehow, over time, material on fdatasync(2) crept into
fsync.2, and fdatasync also got added to the NAME section
of fsync.2.  All of the material in fdatasync.2 that was
not already in fsync.2 has now been moved there, and
the former page has been removed.
