Look at + readdir(3) for the POSIX conforming C library interface. + This page documents the bare kernel system call interface, + which can change, and which is superseded by getdents(2). + + readdir reads one dirent structure from the directory + pointed at by fd into the memory area pointed to by dirp. + The parameter count is ignored; at most one dirent struc- + ture is read. + + The dirent structure is declared as follows: + + struct dirent + { + long d_ino; /* inode number */ + off_t d_off; /* offset to this dirent */ + unsigned short d_reclen; /* length of this d_name */ + char d_name [NAME_MAX+1]; /* file name (null-terminated) */ + } + + d_ino is an inode number. d_off is the distance from the + start of the directory to this dirent. d_reclen is the + size of d_name, not counting the null terminator. d_name + is a null-terminated file name. + + +<h3>RETURN VALUE +</h3> On success, 1 is returned. On end of directory, 0 is + returned. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set + appropriately. + +<h3>ERRORS +</h3> EBADF Invalid file descriptor fd. + + ENOTDIR + File descriptor does not refer to a directory. + +<h3>CONFORMING TO +</h3> This system call is Linux specific. + + + + + +<h3>Linux 1.3.6 22 July 1995 1 +</h3> + + + + +<h3>READDIR(2) Linux Programmer's Manual READDIR(2) +</h3> + +</pre> +<hr> +<h3>SEE ALSO +</h3><p> +<a href=getdents.htm>getdents</a>, +<a href=readdir.htm>readdir</a>, +<pre> + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +<h3>Linux 1.3.6 22 July 1995 2 +</h3> + +
