NAME
       dir - directory layout

SYNOPSIS
       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include <sys/dir.h>

DESCRIPTION
       The directories of the V1 and V2 file systems are arrays of the follow‐
       ing structure defined in <sys/dir.h>:

       struct direct {
	    ino_t	   d_ino;	  /* I-node number */
	    char	   d_name[14];	  /* Name of up to 14 characters */
       };

       The d_ino field is the inode number of the file named by d_name.	 D_ino
       is zero if the directory slot isn't allocated.  This number is the same
       as st_ino returned by stat(2) unless the entry is mounted  on.	D_name
       is  the	name of up to 14 characters, null-terminated only if less then
       14 in length.  Any character other than null or '/' is allowed.

       See directory(3) for a portable way to access directories, MINIX	 3  is
       probably the last system with these old V7 format directories.

SEE ALSO
       directory(3).
