Bug #79633 [Com]: readdir skips entries

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=79633&edit=1 ID: 79633 Comment by: keith at ksmith dot com Reported by: keith at ksmith dot com Summary: readdir skips entries Status: Open Type: Bug Package: Directory function related Operating System: Ubuntu 18.04, Others PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: This has something to do with using the "stream" wrapper around the call. Digging in the code I find "opendir(3)" eventually (about 5 layers down) is (appears to be) called from a #define VCWD_OPENDIR(path) opendir(path). I'm not familiar with all the indirection on the calls in between, and the requisite #if's for various OS's, versions and such. I'm guessing there is a small size or length typo or oddity around some buffering.

Tested with various versions of PHP 5 and 7, available with Debian, and on a Synology NAS. Extending to the character range [0-9,A-Z] for the folder names leaves out a number of other single letter named folders. Code indicates function calls php_stream_readdir which in turn calls php_stream_read, rather than the C language readdir function. I will likely hack up some code to use the 'C' library directly, I'm not sure why that call is so indirect/obfuscated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2020-05-26 02:03:17] keith at ksmith dot com Description: ------------ root@nas-2:/volume1/admin/bin# mkdir /volume1/media/testfolder/0 root@nas-2:/volume1/admin/bin# mkdir /volume1/media/testfolder/1 root@nas-2:/volume1/admin/bin# mkdir /volume1/media/testfolder/2 root@nas-2:/volume1/admin/bin# mkdir /volume1/media/testfolder/3 root@nas-2:/volume1/admin/bin# mkdir /volume1/media/testfolder/4 root@nas-2:/volume1/admin/bin# mkdir /volume1/media/testfolder/5 root@nas-2:/volume1/admin/bin# ls /volume1/media/testfolder 0 1 2 3 4 5 root@nas-2:/volume1/admin/bin# php PHP-test.php Array ( [0] => ..
