To be completely pedantic, POSIX is fine with your system exploding in a shower of sparks after power loss or a hard crash. However, if you've implemented the concurrent access rules POSIX requires, and you've implemented the data integrity after sync rules that POSIX requires, then assuming that you've implemented any sort of reasonable behaviour after a power loss or hard system crash, and that the hardware does not fail, you'll see atomicity.
