When you use stdio, you need to make sure the data is in the system buffers prior to call fsync. fclose() will otherwise write the rest of the data which is not sync'ed. (In S10 I fixed this for /etc/*_* driver files , they are generally under 8 K and therefor never written to disk before fsync'ed if not preceeded by fflush().
