[MirageOS-devel] Sync Block Device

[Konstantin Weitz <weitzkon@xxxxxx>]

I'm trying to write a database. The database is using a block device for storage. I want to make sure that after a commit, all data has actually been persistent on disk.Â

The documentation for the `write` command says that on success, the written data is persistent:

https://github.com/mirage/mirage/blob/1.1.0/types/V1.mli#L134

Is this true, or do I need to call a `sync` command that asks the block device to persist all writes (i.e. write the contents of the hard drive's hardware cache to disk?)

- Konstantin
