The defines are: _LARGEFILE_SOURCE Some more functions for correct standard I/O. _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE Additional functionality from LFS for large files. _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=N Select default filesystem interface.
__USE_ is internal - you can't set it from your application - and if you do, you might not get what you like.
