Subject: fiemap: add a nosync option
X-Git-Tag: v7.1.1~2
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ac14db9cd430eace5d638b217cbded8a75b235cb;p=thirdparty%2Fxfsprogs-dev.git

fiemap: add a nosync option

io/fiemap adds FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC by default. There are some test cases
where adding this flag might have an undesired side effect on the
results [1].

Add an option that does not pass FIEMAP_FLAG_SYNC flag.
