When I build the tests with this applied I encounter the following:
resctrlfs.c: In function ‘write_schemata’:
resctrlfs.c:475:14: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘open’; did you mean ‘popen’? [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
475 | fd = open(controlgroup, O_WRONLY);
| ^~~~
| popen
resctrlfs.c:475:33: error: ‘O_WRONLY’ undeclared (first use in this function)
475 | fd = open(controlgroup, O_WRONLY);
| ^~~~~~~~
resctrlfs.c:475:33: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in

It makes code easier to understand and maintain if it is kept
consistent. It is thus unexpected for open() error handling to
be untouched while write() error handling is modified. I think
the addition of errno in error handling of write() is helpful.
Could you do the same for open()?
