Hi Bart,
I fixed a silly bug in our readdir logic just now, and now your patch
works fine for the case I was looking at. I applied the dirent increase
patch to trunk.
I now get the correct number of getdents calls (using ext3 for
comparison) on PVFS:
getdents64(3, /* 170 entries */, 4096)
I looked at the code a little just now. The getdents system call passes
a filldir() callback function into the file system readdir()
implementation that lets it fill entries until the user's dentry buffer
is full. The dentries at this level use variable length strings. The
only remaining cap
