21 * open3.h -- #defines for the various flags for the Sys V style 3-argument
22 * open() call. On BSD or System 5, the system already has this in an
23 * include file. This file is needed for V7 and MINIX systems for the
24 * benefit of open3() in port.c, a routine that emulates the 3-argument
25 * call using system calls available on V7/MINIX.
26 *
27 * This file is needed by PD tar even if we aren't using the
28 * emulator, since the #defines for O_WRONLY, etc. are used in
29 * a couple of places besides the open() calls, (e.g. in the assignment
30 * to openflag in extract.c). We just #include this rather than
31 * #ifdef them out.
32 *
33 * Written 6/10/87 by rmtodd@uokmax (Richard Todd).
34 *
35 * The names have been changed by John Gilmore, 31 July 1987, since
36 * Richard called it "bsdopen", and really this change was introduced in
37 * AT&T Unix systems before BSD picked it up.

47 * O_NDELAY isn't implemented by the emulator. It's only useful (to tar) on
48 * systems that have named pipes anyway; it prevents tar's hanging by
49 * opening a named pipe. We #ifndef it because some systems already have
50 * it defined.
