Subject: image_types_fsl.bbclass: use dd's option fsync instead of sync
X-Git-Tag: 2.1~584
X-Git-Url: https://code.ossystems.io/gitweb?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a110c9815603eb6c35b36c92e9229016960badf5;p=meta-freescale.git

image_types_fsl.bbclass: use dd's option fsync instead of sync

The shell command sync flushes all filesystem buffers in the system.  On
a bigger multiuser system there are multiple gigs of data sometimes in
the buffer which then are written out to disk at once.  It's better to
only flush the specific file with dd's option 'fsync'.
