Hi Dom,

that's the way a filesystem is designed in the FUSE world (which matches how the Linux kernel works afaik). It can become very inefficient to always return a full list of files/folders, (e.g. if there are thousands of files), so the kernel needs a way to query a subset. The FUSE interface implements this by giving an offset to readdir and limiting the number of entries in the reply (you can see this like offset and length of a pagination).
Support for building a directory reply could be improved though, e.g. we could try to make it possible to build directory replies from various kinds of iterators.

from fuse-rs.
