37 It defines the macro `_DIRENT_HAVE_D_RECLEN' iff there is a `d_reclen'
38 member that gives the size of the entire directory entry.

51 They may evaluate their argument multiple times, so it must not
52 have side effects. Each of these may involve a relatively costly
53 call to `strlen' on some systems, so these values should be cached.
55 _D_EXACT_NAMLEN (DP) returns the length of DP->d_name, not including
56 its terminating null character.
58 _D_ALLOC_NAMLEN (DP) returns a size at least (_D_EXACT_NAMLEN (DP) + 1);
59 that is, the allocation size needed to hold the DP->d_name string.
60 Use this macro when you don't need the exact length, just an upper bound.
