Streaming replication

In the doc:

25.2.5. Streaming Replication
:
The standby connects to the primary, which streams WAL records to the
standby as they're generated, without waiting for the WAL file to be
filled.

This seems to claim that walsender sends WAL files which has not been
fsync'd yet. However, in walsender.c:

/*
* Streaming the current timeline on a master.
*
* Attempt to send all data that's already been written out and
* fsync'd to disk. We cannot go further than what's been written out
* given the current implementation of XLogRead(). And in any case
* it's unsafe to send WAL that is not securely down to disk on the
* master: if the master subsequently crashes and restarts, slaves
* must not have applied any WAL that gets lost on the master.
*/

This one says walsender sends WAL records as long as there are
fsync'd.

Am I missing something?
