  glibc's opendir allocates a minimum of 32kb, when called recursively
for a directory tree the memory consumption can add up - nearly 300kb
during perf start-up when processing modules. Add a stack allocated
variant of readdir sized a little more than 1kb.

Sorry for that. Is it a _GNU_SOURCE issue? I thought we generally had
_GNU_SOURCE defined on the command line for reallocarray. Maybe we
shouldn't define this on the command line and do it immediately before
the relevant include with:

#ifndef _GNU_SOURCE
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#endif

like in tools/perf/util/intel-pt-decoder/intel-pt-decoder.c

Thanks,
Ian

Nope, some systems just don't have that function in its libc, for
instance, a Red Hat derivative with glibc 2.28:

I'm confused. It seems nolibc has support, musl doesn't and with old
glibcs it depends. I added a feature test in a the latest patch series
to hopefully workaround this:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20231207050433.1426834-1-irogers@google.com/
Could you help check and I suspect the syscall implementation needs
some work for if SYS_getdents64 isn't defined, etc.

Thanks,
Ian
