+ * @warning APR_FOPEN_LARGEFILE flag only has effect on some
+ * platforms where sizeof(apr_off_t) == 4. Where implemented, it
+ * allows opening and writing to a file which exceeds the size which
+ * can be represented by apr_off_t (2 gigabytes). When a file's size
+ * does exceed 2Gb, apr_file_info_get() will fail with an error on the
+ * descriptor, likewise apr_stat()/apr_lstat() will fail on the
+ * filename. apr_dir_read() will fail with #APR_INCOMPLETE on a
+ * directory entry for a large file depending on the particular
+ * APR_FINFO_* flags. Generally, it is not recommended to use this
+ * flag.
+ *
+ * @def APR_FOPEN_SPARSE
+ * @warning APR_FOPEN_SPARSE may, depending on platform, convert a
+ * normal file to a sparse file. Some applications may be unable
+ * to decipher a sparse file, so it's critical that the sparse file
+ * flag should only be used for files accessed only by APR or other
+ * applications known to be able to decipher them. APR does not
+ * guarantee that it will compress the file into sparse segments
+ * if it was previously created and written without the sparse flag.
+ * On platforms which do not understand, or on file systems which
+ * cannot handle sparse files, the flag is ignored by apr_file_open().
+ *
+ * @def APR_FOPEN_NONBLOCK
+ * @warning APR_FOPEN_NONBLOCK is not implemented on all platforms.
+ * Callers should be prepared for it to fail with #APR_ENOTIMPL.
