test program demonstrating getdirentries's output.
r318736, the 64-bit inode project, added a d_off field to struct dirent.
According to the man page, each entry's d_off field can be used with lseek(2)
to position the directory descriptor to the next entry. That works for UFS,
devfs, ZFS, and tmpfs. But the NFS client always returns 0 for d_off.
Secondly, getdirentries is supposed to return the length of valid data in the
buffer. For UFS, devfs, ZFS, and tmpfs it does it correctly. But for NFS, it
always returns the size of the buffer.
Steps to Reproduce:
1) Compile the attached program with cc -o getdirentries -Wall getdirentries.c
2) sudo mount -t tmpfs tmpfs /mnt
3) cd /mnt
4) sudo touch foo bar baz
5) /path/to/getdirentries 0
len=160
name=. d_reclen=32 d_off=1
name=.. d_reclen=32 d_off=15397777
name=bar d_reclen=32 d_off=15397785
name=baz d_reclen=32 d_off=250872870
name=foo d_reclen=32 d_off=2
6) /path/to/getdirentries 1
name=.. d_reclen=32 d_off=15397777
name=bar d_reclen=32 d_off=15397785
name=baz d_reclen=32 d_off=250872870
name=foo d_reclen=32 d_off=2
Notice that we supplied the first entry's d_off value, and getdirentries
returned a buffer starting with the second entry.
7) cd /path/to/some/NFS/mount
8) touch foo bar baz
9) /path/to/getdirentries 0
len=8192
name=. d_reclen=40 d_off=0
name=.. d_reclen=40 d_off=0
name=bar d_reclen=40 d_off=0
name=foo d_reclen=40 d_off=0
name=baz d_reclen=352 d_off=0
name= d_reclen=512 d_off=0
name= d_reclen=512 d_off=0
name= d_reclen=512 d_off=0
name= d_reclen=512 d_off=0
name= d_reclen=512 d_off=0
name= d_reclen=512 d_off=0
name= d_reclen=512 d_off=0
name= d_reclen=512 d_off=0
name= d_reclen=512 d_off=0
name= d_reclen=512 d_off=0
name= d_reclen=512 d_off=0
name= d_reclen=512 d_off=0
name= d_reclen=512 d_off=0
name= d_reclen=512 d_off=0
name= d_reclen=512 d_off=0
Notice the long tail of "" entries. That's because the returned length is
equal to the size of the buffer. Also, notice that d_off is always 0.
Obviously, it can't be supplied to lseek.
Observed with NFS v4.2 on a FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT amd64 client with a
13.0-ALPHA1 server.
