From f53d86c9295d9ac20981ca26beb6b83ad1f4296d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Lennart Poettering Date: Wed, 20 Apr 2016 17:49:31 +0200 Subject: machine-id-setup: explicitly fsync() the machine ID after writing As discussed here: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/2619#issuecomment-184670042 Explicitly syncing /etc/machine-id after writing it, is probably a good idea, since it has a strong "commit" character and is generally a one-time thing.
