hello,

I wonder if you wanted to say "Fix resource leak" as I don't see any memory
leak getting fixed here. Am I missing anything ?

Also, a close(fd) on open failure may lead to unexpected behavior since the
file is not even opened.

Also, the pattern seems to be multiple error paths with same set of
instructions. Does it make sense to put them in a macro -or- better yet
have fd auto cleaned using the cleanup attribute ?

Thanks
