[sftp] open(2) w/ O_CREAT|O_TRUNC works, but O_CREAT alone fails
----------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: SSHD-100
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SSHD-100
             Project: MINA SSHD
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Bobby Powers
         Attachments: test.c

Hi folks,


I've mounted an sftp directory using sshfs like so: 
# sshfs -d -p 9022 bpow...@$server_name:/bpowers /home/bpowers/Desktop/wintest

The following sequences of commands shows the problem:
r...@bpowers-laptop:/home/bpowers/Desktop/wintest/test# rm -f bar
r...@bpowers-laptop:/home/bpowers/Desktop/wintest/test# touch bar
touch: cannot touch `bar': No such file or directory
r...@bpowers-laptop:/home/bpowers/Desktop/wintest/test# echo "foo" > bar
r...@bpowers-laptop:/home/bpowers/Desktop/wintest/test# cat bar
foo
r...@bpowers-laptop:/home/bpowers/Desktop/wintest/test# rm bar
r...@bpowers-laptop:/home/bpowers/Desktop/wintest/test# touch bar
touch: cannot touch `bar': No such file or directory
...


I've reduced it to a simple test case.  Running the attached program gives me 
the following:
r...@bpowers-laptop:/home/bpowers/Desktop/wintest/test# 
/home/bpowers/creat_test 
/home/bpowers/Desktop/wintest/test/abc2: No such file or directory
/home/bpowers/Desktop/wintest/test/abc3: worked.

The difference is in the flags passed to open(2), and the consequence of this 
is that I cannot use cp or rsync to create any files over sftp (although they 
will update existing files).  


see attachment for the source of creat_test, which can be compiled with:
$ gcc -o creat_test test.c
and
$ man 2 open
for a description of the flags.

Debugging output from sshfs shows the following:
