[Libguestfs] [libguestfs PATCH v2 2/2] guestfs_readdir(): minimize the number of send_file_write() calls

In guestfs_readdir(), the daemon currently sends each XDR-encoded "guestfs_int_dirent" to the library with a separate send_file_write() call. Determine the largest encoded size (from the longest filename that a "guestfs_int_dirent" could carry, from readdir()'s "struct dirent"), and batch up the XDR encodings until the next encoding might not fit in GUESTFS_MAX_CHUNK_SIZE. Call send_file_write() only then. Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1674392 Signed-off-by: Laszlo Ersek <lersek(a)redhat.com&gt; Acked-by: Richard W.M.
