Any ideas? You start by reading the line the error was reported on: R->fp = open(datafilename, O_RDWR | O_CREAT); the bug is obvious - open with O_CREAT among flags must be given 3 arguments. glibc recently added for -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 error checking open/open64/openat/openat64 macros that verify proper use, since many people make mistakes with it. > getdata.c: In function 'DoIfRawOut': > getdata.c:2207: error: size of array '__open_missing_mode' is negative > make[5]: *** [getdata.lo] Error 1 Alternatively you could have searched the headers for __open_missing_mode: ... /* If the compiler complains about the size of this array type the \ mode parameter is missing since O_CREAT has been used. */ \ typedef int __open_missing_mode[((flags) & O_CREAT) != 0 \ ? ((long int) sizeof (___arr) \ - (long int) sizeof (int)) : 1]; \ ... and the comment says it all (similarly for other errors the new open macro can report, such as more than 3 arguments or invalid type of the last argument).
