glibc - tmpfs - readdir

[Jochen Schlick <jochen schlick comsoft de>]

hi,

i have an application which calls readdir(3) for
accessing directories in tmpfs. after several hours
the readdir call returns sometimes with einval. under
which circumstances can readdir(3) produce einval ?

is this a fedora kernel or a glibc problem ?
(incompatibility problem ?)

the system is an old fc2 system (glibc-2.3.3-2
kernel-2.6.10-1.770_FC2)


thanks
