READDIR(2)          Linux Programmer's Manual          READDIR(2)
+

+
+
NAME
+
       readdir - read directory entry
+
+
SYNOPSIS
+
       #include <unistd.h>
+       #include <linux/dirent.h>
+       #include <linux/unistd.h>
+
+       _syscall3(int, readdir, uint, fd, struct dirent *, dirp, uint, count);
+
+       int readdir(unsigned int fd, struct dirent *dirp, unsigned int count);
+
+
DESCRIPTION
+
       This  is  not the function you are interested in.  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+       which can change, and which is superseded by  getdents(2).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.
+
+
+
RETURN VALUE
+
       On  success,  1  is  returned.   On end of directory, 0 is
+       returned.  On error, -1 is  returned,  and  errno  is  set
+       appropriately.
+
+
ERRORS
+
       EBADF  Invalid file descriptor fd.
+
+       ENOTDIR
+              File descriptor does not refer to a directory.
+
+
CONFORMING TO
+
