[Bug libc/9686] New: readdir fails to see all files in directory on XFS filesystem

["jpsinthemix at verizon dot net" <sourceware-bugzilla at sourceware dot org>]

This has occurred on a LFS-like system,using the following: linux-2.6.28,
glibc-2.8_20081222 and binutils-2.19. I first observed the problem when build
xorg-server (X11R7.4) complained about not finding pixman, even though
pixman-1-0.13.2 was indeed installed. I then issued pkg-config --modversion
pixman-1 which found no package pixman-1, even though
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/pixman-1.pc was indeed present. So, I wrote a simple c
program to test directory listings using glibc readdir and found that it
consistently does not find one file in a directory (if there are enough files
contained in it), giving the error:
 "Value too large for defined data type" (errno: 75). I say, "enough files"
here, because this error does not happen for every directory: for directories
with only a few files, no problem, but for directories such as /usr/bin and
/usr/lib (and /usr/lib/pkgconfig) it does. 

The c code to demonstrate this strange behavior is as follows
(build with: cc -o test_readdir test_readdir.c):
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// test_readdir.c

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <dirent.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

void list_dir(const char *dir_name) {
    struct dirent *dent;

    DIR *dir = opendir(dir_name);

    if (!dir) {
        printf("Invalid/non-existent directory: %s\n", dir_name, strerror (errno));
        return;
    }
    printf("Files in %s:\n", dir_name);

    while ((dent = readdir (dir))) {
        printf("file: %s rc: %s\n", dent->d_name, strerror (errno));
    }
    printf("Finished with rc: %s (%d)\n", strerror (errno), errno);
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
    char *dir_name;

    if (argc > 1)
        dir_name = (char*) argv[1];
    else
        dir_name = (char*) "/usr/lib/pkgconfig";

    list_dir(dir_name);

    return(0);
}

Here is an "ls" listing of /usr/lib/pkgconfig:

Finished with rc: Value too large for defined data type (75)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The file pixman-1.pc is not found.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another simple demonstration: create a directory and create a whole bunch of
empty files as follows:

mkdir ttt
for n in {1..168}; do touch ttt/$n;done

and issue test_readdir ttt. For {1..N}, N=1,2,..167, it works fine, but for
N=168, file "ttt/168" is not found and errno=75 is set. Detele ttt/168 and it
works again, add again an arbitrary file and it fails. Very peculiar.
