I just tried using dd with conv=fsync option and that kinda does what you mentioned. I see this at the end of strace: --------------------------------- write(1, "<some data...>"..., 512) = 512 read(0, ""..., 512) = 0 fsync(1) = 0 close(0) = 0 close(1) = 0 ---------------------------------
So, maybe GNU folks just don't want to have yet another tool for this.
