FILEMAP_WRITE_AND_WA(9)             Memory Management in Linux            FILEMAP_WRITE_AND_WA(9)



NAME
       filemap_write_and_wait_range - write out & wait on a file range

SYNOPSIS
       int filemap_write_and_wait_range(struct address_space * mapping, loff_t lstart,
                                        loff_t lend);

ARGUMENTS
       mapping
           the address_space for the pages

       lstart
           offset in bytes where the range starts

       lend
           offset in bytes where the range ends (inclusive)

DESCRIPTION
       Write out and wait upon file offsets lstart->lend, inclusive.

       Note that `lend' is inclusive (describes the last byte to be written) so that this
       function can be used to write to the very end-of-file (end = -1).
