Hi Shehjar, 

Thanks for looking into this issue. 
The file abc.txt is getting created; if you look at the C program; the
following line is basically printing out the file handle on stdout:

printf ("File handle %d\n",fh);

But, the booster log is getting generated. 

Thanks and regards,
Sudipto

I'll check why the booster log is not getting generated.
In the mean time, can you check if the file abc.txt really does not
get created on the backend?
If open is failing, it looks like the fd 4 is being returned by
creat call.
