-.SH DESCRIPTION
-When dealing with asynchronous operations it is sometimes necessary to
-get into a consistent state. This would mean for AIO that one wants to
-know whether a certain request or a group of request were processed.
-This could be done by waiting for the notification sent by the system
-after the operation terminated, but this sometimes would mean wasting
-resources (mainly computation time).
-.PP
-Calling this function forces all I/O operations operating queued at the
-time of the function call operating on the file descriptor
-.IR "iocb->io_fildes"
-into the synchronized I/O completion state . The
-.IR "io_fsync"
-function returns
-immediately but the notification through the method described in
-.IR "io_callback"
-will happen only after all requests for this
-file descriptor have terminated and the file is synchronized. This also
-means that requests for this very same file descriptor which are queued
-after the synchronization request are not affected.
-.SH "RETURN VALUES"
-Returns 0, otherwise returns errno.
-.SH ERRORS
-.TP
-.B EFAULT
-.I iocbs
-referenced data outside of the program's accessible address space.
-.TP
-.B EINVAL
-.I ctx
-refers to an unitialized aio context, the iocb pointed to by
-.I iocbs
-contains an improperly initialized iocb,
-.TP
-.B EBADF
-The iocb contains a file descriptor that does not exist.
-.TP
-.B EINVAL
-The file specified in the iocb does not support the given io operation.
