14 * Big-endian to little-endian byte-swapping/bitmaps by
15 * David S. Miller (davem@caip.rutgers.edu), 1995
16 *
17 * Removed unnecessary code duplication for little endian machines
18 * and excessive __inline__s.
19 * Andi Kleen, 1997
20 *
21 * Major simplications and cleanup - we only need to do the metadata, because
22 * we can depend on generic_block_fdatasync() to sync the data blocks.

617ba13b 36 * akpm: A new design for ext4_sync_file().
ac27a0ec
DK
37 *
38 * This is only called from sys_fsync(), sys_fdatasync() and sys_msync().
39 * There cannot be a transaction open by this task.
40 * Another task could have dirtied this inode. Its data can be in any
41 * state in the journalling system.
42 *
43 * What we do is just kick off a commit and wait on it. This will snapshot the
44 * inode to disk.
