+.\"
+.SH PROLOG
+This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.
+The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult
+the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
+or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
+.\"
+.SH NAME
+fdatasync
+\(em synchronize the data of a file
+(\fBREALTIME\fP)
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+.nf
+#include <unistd.h>
+.P
+int fdatasync(int \fIfildes\fP);
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+\fIfdatasync\fR()
+function shall force all currently queued I/O operations associated
+with the file indicated by file descriptor
+.IR fildes
+to the synchronized I/O completion state.
+.P
+The functionality shall be equivalent to
+\fIfsync\fR()
+with the symbol _POSIX_SYNCHRONIZED_IO defined,
+with the exception that all I/O operations shall be completed as
+defined for synchronized I/O data integrity completion.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+If successful, the
+\fIfdatasync\fR()
+function shall return the value 0; otherwise, the function shall return
+the value \-1 and set
+.IR errno
+to indicate the error. If the
+\fIfdatasync\fR()
+function fails, outstanding I/O operations are not guaranteed to have
+been completed.
+.SH ERRORS
+The
+\fIfdatasync\fR()
+function shall fail if:
+.TP
+.BR EBADF
+The
+.IR fildes
+argument is not a valid file descriptor.
+.TP
+.BR EINVAL
+This implementation does not support synchronized I/O for this file.
+.P
+In the event that any of the queued I/O operations fail,
+\fIfdatasync\fR()
+shall return the error conditions defined for
+\fIread\fR()
+and
+\fIwrite\fR().
+.LP
+.IR "The following sections are informative."
+.SH EXAMPLES
+None.
+.SH "APPLICATION USAGE"
+Note that even if the file descriptor is not open for writing,
+if there are any pending write requests on the underlying file,
+then that I/O will be completed prior to the return of
+\fIfdatasync\fR().
+.SH RATIONALE
+None.
+.SH "FUTURE DIRECTIONS"
+None.
