Reshma V Kumar commented on SVN-4815:
-------------------------------------

I tested the fsync functionality in several scenarios. Every time, it failed on AIX. So, I have used the same approach and modified the patch according to the changes suggested.

[^subversion-1.10.4-io.patch]

>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: libsvn_subr
>    Affects Versions: 1.10.x
>         Environment: OS- AIX 7.2

> I am testing subversion 1.10.4 on AIX 7.2
> # oslevel -s
> 7200-03-00-0000
> While executing the following command , it gives error.
> # svnadmin create --fs-type fsfs /reshma/svn
> svnadmin: E000009: Can't write '/reshma/svn/db/current' atomically
> svnadmin: E000009: Can't flush file '/reshma/svn/db' to disk: A file descriptor does not refer to an open file.
> This is because in AIX, fsync called on a directory returns errno=EBADF which makes subversions/libsvn_subr/io.c:svn_io_flush_to_disk {{}}fail.
> To fix this, I created a patch. Here I am checking if the platform is AIX.
