--------------------------------------
I think sync is a fairly generic FileSystem operation.

> Expose DFSOutputStream.fsync API though the FileSystem interface

> In the current code, there is a DFSOutputStream.fsync() API that allows a
> client to flush all buffered data to the datanodes and also persist block
> locations on the namenode. This API should be exposed through the generic API
