    NAME

    
    
    dir
    
     
    dirent
    
     - directory file format
    
     
    

    SYNOPSIS

       #include <dirent.h>
     

    DESCRIPTION

    Directories provide a convenient hierarchical method of grouping files while obscuring the underlying details of the storage medium. A directory file is differentiated from a plain file by a flag in its inode(5) entry. It consists of records (directory entries) each of which contains information about a file and a pointer to the file itself. Directory entries may contain other directories as well as plain files; such nested directories are referred to as subdirectories. A hierarchy of directories and files is formed in this manner and is called a file system (or referred to as a file system tree).

    Each directory file contains two special directory entries; one is a pointer to the directory itself called dot `.' and the other a pointer to its parent directory called dot-dot `..' Dot and dot-dot are valid pathnames, however, the system root directory `/' , has no parent and dot-dot points to itself like dot.

    File system nodes are ordinary directory files on which has been grafted a file system object, such as a physical disk or a partitioned area of such a disk. (See mount(2) and mount(8).)

    The directory entry format is defined in the file    #include <sys/dirent.h>
    (which should not be included directly by applications):

    #ifndef _SYS_DIRENT_H_
    #define _SYS_DIRENT_H_
    
    #include <machine/ansi.h>
    
    /*
     * The dirent structure defines the format of directory entries returned by
     * the getdirentries(2) system call.
     *
     * A directory entry has a struct dirent at the front of it, containing its
     * inode number, the length of the entry, and the length of the name
     * contained in the entry.  These are followed by the name padded to a 4
     * byte boundary with null bytes.  All names are guaranteed null terminated.
     * The maximum length of a name in a directory is MAXNAMLEN.
     */
    
    struct dirent {
            __uint32_t d_fileno;            /* file number of entry */
            __uint16_t d_reclen;            /* length of this record */
            __uint8_t  d_type;              /* file type, see below */
            __uint8_t  d_namlen;            /* length of string in d_name */
    #ifdef _POSIX_SOURCE
            char    d_name[255 + 1];        /* name must be no longer than this */
    #else
    #define MAXNAMLEN       255
            char    d_name[MAXNAMLEN + 1];  /* name must be no longer than this */
    #endif
    };

     * the directory entry.  This requires the amount of space in struct direct
     * without the d_name field, plus enough space for the name with a terminating
     * null byte (dp->d_namlen+1), rounded up to a 4 byte boundary.
     */
    #define _GENERIC_DIRSIZ(dp)     ((sizeof (struct dirent) - (MAXNAMLEN+1)) + (((dp)->d_namlen+1 + 3) &~ 3))

    SEE ALSO

    fs(5), inode(5)  

    HISTORY

    A file format appeared in AT&T System v7 .  

    BUGS

    The usage of the member d_type of struct dirent is unportable as it is Fx Ns -specific . It also may fail on certain file systems, for example the cd9660 file system.
