Conformance

Description

The telldir() function shall obtain the current location associated with the directory stream specified by dirp.

If the most recent operation on the directory stream was a seekdir(), the directory position returned from the telldir() shall be the same as that supplied as a loc argument for seekdir().

The location is the offset of the next directory entry in the directory, which readdir() passes to the filesystem server.

Return value

Upon successful completion, telldir() shall return the current location of the specified directory stream.
