From the fsck man page:
Currently, standardized file system-specific options are somewhat in flux.
Although not guaranteed, the following options are supported by most file
system checkers:
-a Automatically repair the file system without any questions (use
this option with caution). Note that e2fsck(8) supports -a for
backwards compatibility only. This option is mapped to e2fsck's
-p option which is safe to use, unlike the -a option that most
file system checkers support.
