is mount option "sync" valid for all filesystems I want to have an script that automatically mounts all USB drives on insert (granted they have a block/filesystem that is a valid partition). My questiosn is: is `sync` an option that can be applied to all types of filesystems (e.g. vfat, ntfs, ext2, ...)? can I assume I will not get an error message when I mount any given block with `sync` option? I have seen in the past mount will fail if the provided option is not intended for that specific filesystem type. so, is `sync` a universal option?

man mount


FILESYSTEM-INDEPENDENT MOUNT OPTIONS


sync All I/O to the filesystem should be done synchronously. In the
case of media with a limited number of write cycles (e.g. some
flash drives), sync may cause life-cycle shortening.
