Hi Maciej, 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
Hmm, that's odd. How do you build the tests?
I use "make -C tools/testing/selftests/resctrl" while in the root kernel source directory. I tried to get the same error you experienced by compiling some dummy test program with "open" and "O_WRONLY". From the experiment I found that the "resctrl.h" header provides the declarations that are causing your errors.

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()?
Okay, I'll add that, thanks.
