Open Flags

Moreover, the following flags are available:

sync
All i/o operations are done synchronously
nodelay
The device or file is opened with the O_NDELAY flag. This is needed on some non-Linux architectures.
exclusive
The device or file is opened with the O_EXCL flag. On Linux, this ensures exclusive access to the floppy drive. On most other architectures, and for plain files it has no effect at all.
