如何在Linux上递归列出C中的目录？

Question

我需要递归列出C编程中的所有目录和文件.我已经研究过FTW但是我没有使用这两种操作系统(Fedora和Minix).从过去几个小时里读到的所有不同的东西开始,我开始感到头疼.

如果有人知道我可以看到的代码片段那将是惊人的,或者如果有人能给我一个好的方向,我会非常感激.

Answer 1

为什么每个人都坚持一次又一次地重新发明轮子？

POSIX.1-2008标准化了该nftw()功能,也在单Unix规范v4(SuSv4)中定义,可在Linux(glibc man 3 nftw),OS X和大多数当前的BSD变体中使用.它根本不是新的.

朴素opendir()/ readdir()/ closedir()基实现几乎从来没有处理这种情况的目录或文件被移动,重命名或删除树遍历期间的情况下,而nftw()应妥善处理它们.

例如,请考虑以下C程序,该程序列出从当前工作目录开始的目录树,或命令行中命名的每个目录,或者只是命令行中命名的文件:

/* We want POSIX.1-2008 + XSI, i.e. SuSv4, features */
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE 700

/* Added on 2017-06-25:
   If the C library can support 64-bit file sizes
   and offsets, using the standard names,
   these defines tell the C library to do so. */
#define _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE
#define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS 64 

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <ftw.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <errno.h>

/* POSIX.1 says each process has at least 20 file descriptors.
 * Three of those belong to the standard streams.
 * Here, we use a conservative estimate of 15 available;
 * assuming we use at most two for other uses in this program,
 * we should never run into any problems.
 * Most trees are shallower than that, so it is efficient.
 * Deeper trees are traversed fine, just a bit slower.
 * (Linux allows typically hundreds to thousands of open files,
 *  so you'll probably never see any issues even if you used
 *  a much higher value, say a couple of hundred, but
 *  15 is a safe, reasonable value.)

上面的大部分代码都在print_entry().它的任务是打印出每个目录条目.在print_directory_tree(),我们告诉nftw()它为它看到的每个目录条目调用它.

上面唯一的手工波形细节是决定应该nftw()使用多少个文件描述符.如果您的程序在文件树遍历期间最多使用两个额外的文件描述符(除了标准流),则已知15是安全的(在所有具有nftw()并且主要与POSIX兼容的系统上).

在Linux中,您可以使用sysconf(_SC_OPEN_MAX)查找最大打开文件数,并减去与nftw()调用同时使用的数字,但我不会打扰(除非我知道该实用程序主要用于病态深度目录结构).十五描述并没有限制树的深度; nftw()只是变得更慢(并且如果走过比那个目录更深的13个目录的目录,可能无法检测目录中的变化,尽管在系统和C库实现之间权衡和检测变化的一般能力也不同).只需使用编译时常量就可以保持代码的可移植性 - 它不仅适用于Linux,而且适用于Mac OS X和所有当前的BSD变体,以及大多数其他不太旧的Unix变体.

在评论中,Ruslan提到他们必须切换到nftw64()因为他们有文件系统条目需要64位大小/偏移,而"正常"版本nftw()失败了errno == EOVERFLOW.正确的解决方案是不切换到GLIBC特定的64位函数,而是定义_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE和_FILE_OFFSET_BITS 64.这些告诉C库在可能的情况下切换到64位文件大小和偏移,同时使用标准函数(nftw(),fstat()等等)和类型名称(off_t等).

这是一个简化的递归版本，但使用的堆栈空间要少得多：

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

void listdir(char *path, size_t size) {
    DIR *dir;
    struct dirent *entry;
    size_t len = strlen(path);

    if (!(dir = opendir(path))) {
        fprintf(stderr, "path not found: %s: %s\n",
                path, strerror(errno));
        return;
    }

    puts(path);
    while ((entry = readdir(dir)) != NULL) {
        char *name = entry->d_name;
        if (entry->d_type == DT_DIR) {
            if (!strcmp(name, ".") || !strcmp(name, ".."))
                continue;
            if (len + strlen(name) + 2 > size) {
                fprintf(stderr, "path too long: %s/%s\n", path, name);
            } else {
                path[len] = '/';
                strcpy(path + len + 1, name);
                listdir(path, size);
                path[len] = '\0';
            }
        } else {
            printf("%s/%s\n", path, name);
        }
    }
    closedir(dir);
}

int main(void) {
    char path[1024] = ".";
    listdir(path, sizeof path);
    return 0;
}

在我的系统上，它的输出与find .

Answer 5

正如我在评论中提到的那样，我相信递归方法在此任务中有两个固有的缺陷。

第一个缺陷是对打开文件的限制。此限制对深度遍历施加了限制。如果有足够的子文件夹，则递归方法将中断。（请参阅有关堆栈溢出的编辑）

第二个缺陷更加微妙。递归方法使得很难测试硬链接。如果文件夹树是循环的（由于硬链接），则递归方法将中断（希望不会出现堆栈溢出）。（请参阅有关硬链接的编辑）

但是，通过使用单个文件描述符和链接列表替换递归来避免这些问题非常简单。

我认为这不是学校项目，并且递归是可选的。

这是一个示例应用程序。

使用a.out ./以查看文件夹树。

我为宏和其他东西表示歉意...我通常使用内联函数，但是我认为，如果所有代码都在一个函数中，则遵循代码会更容易。

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

  /* print use instruction unless a folder name was given */
  if (argc < 2)
    fprintf(stderr,
            "\nuse:\n"
            "    %s <directory>\n"
            "for example:\n"
            "    %s ./\n\n",

@Stargateur在评论中提到，递归代码可能会在达到打开文件限制之前溢出堆栈。

尽管我看不到堆栈溢出有什么更好的方法，但是只要过程在调用时不接近文件限制，此评估就可能是正确的。

@Stargateur在评论中提到的另一点是，递归代码的深度受子目录的最大数量限制（ext4文件系统上为64000），并且硬链接极不可能（因为硬链接不是文件夹）在Linux / Unix上允许）。

如果代码在Linux上运行（根据问题，确实是这样），这是个好消息，所以这个问题并不是真正的问题（除非在macOS或Windows上运行代码）...尽管64K子文件夹递归操作可能会将堆栈炸开。

话虽这么说，无递归选项仍然具有优势，例如能够轻松地增加处理项目的数量限制以及能够缓存结果。

聚苯乙烯

根据评论，这是不检查循环层次结构的代码的非递归版本。它速度更快，应该足够安全，可以在不允许硬链接到文件夹的Linux机器上使用。
