VFLUSHBUF(9)		     OpenBSD Kernel Manual		  VFLUSHBUF(9)

NAME
     vflushbuf - flush dirty vnode buffers to disk

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/param.h>
     #include <sys/vnode.h>

     void
     vflushbuf(struct vnode *vp, int sync);

DESCRIPTION
     The vflushbuf() function flushes all dirty buffers associated with the
     vnode vp to the disk.  If the sync argument is zero, writes to the disk
     will be asynchronous and vflushbuf() returns immediately; otherwise,
     writes will be synchronous and all disk blocks associated with the vnode
     will have been properly synchronized with the in-core buffers upon
     return.

SEE ALSO
     vinvalbuf(9), vnode(9)
