In NOTES section says Linux use the d_type field of the struct dirent
which is only true with certain filesystem like ext2 and ext3. With
XFS and reiserfs d_type is always equal to 0.
I think would be a good idea to add just a small comment like "Under
certain filesystem like ext2 and ext3..." to avoid confussion.
Also there is a small typo in the SYNOPSIS section where there is an
extra line break between the two includes:
#include <sys/types.h>
//extra line break here
#include <dirent.h>
I have the readdir(3) from 2007-07-30 which comes with the ubuntu 8.04
in the manpages-dev package version 2.77-1.
Thanks in advance for your attention.
