Full_Name: Jan Safranek Version: 2.3.37 OS: Linux (Fedora rawhide) URL: http://people.redhat.com/jsafrane/openldap-2.3.37-fortify-open.patch Submission from: (NULL) (62.40.79.66)

Recently we have integrated glibc 2.6.90 into Fedora Linux distribution and OpenLDAP is not compilable anymore. We use -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 to check for common errors on compile time and this switch causes that open() in fcntl.h is not a function name but a macro in the new glibc headers. Berkeley DB often uses 'something->open(...)' to open database, which is expanded by the compiler using the macro from fcntl.h -> compilation error.

Compilation can be easily fixed by using additional braces around open, like '(something->open)(...)'.

I do not like open() being macro, but POSIX allows it and glibc guys seems to be quite strict in this. The new glibc shall be released in fall and all major distributions will use it sooner or later, therefore I would suggest to adapt few OpenLDAP sources to it.
