Two points worth noting:
1. fsync() is not suitable for high throughput, use it only when the durability of a file write really matters to you.
2. fsync() includes an implicit call to fflush() so you don't need to manually flush before you sync.
(PHP 8 >= 8.1.0)
fsync — Synchronizes changes to the file (including meta-data)
This function synchronizes changes to the file, including its meta-data. This is similar to fflush(), but it also instructs the operating system to write to the storage media.
stream
El fichero al que se apunta debe ser válido, y debe apuntar a un fichero abierto por fopen() o fsockopen() (y que todavía no esté cerrado por fclose()).
Devuelve true
en caso de éxito o false
en caso de error.
Ejemplo #1 fsync() example
<?php
$file = 'test.txt';
$stream = fopen($file, 'w');
fwrite($stream, 'test data');
fwrite($stream, "\r\n");
fwrite($stream, 'additional data');
fsync($stream);
fclose($stream);
?>
