As part of a translator I'm working on, I'm calling dir_readdir from fs.h on the underlying file of the translator. This works except that the `struct direct`s returned in the data_t arg only contain the first four bytes of the `direct.d_name` field. The `d_namlen` field is correct. A google search didn't turn up anything about this in the Hurd or glibc, but I found this page[1] that says a dirent (which is what direct is aliased to in glibc) only contains space for the first four bits. Space for the name has to be allocated in addition to the space needed for struct dirent. Is that what's happening in my case? And if so, is there a way to provide that space to my call to dir_readdir so it provides full file names? From what I can tell it allocates its own storage for the data_t pointer it writes to.
