PR in attachment adds a new dirfd() method to the scandir() object (POSIX only). This can be be passed to os.* functions supporting the "dir_fd" parameter, and avoid opening a new fd as in:
>>> dirfd = os.open("basename", os.O_RDONLY, dir_fd=topfd)
At the moment I am not sure if it's possible to also support Windows.

Why not just os.open the directory yourself and pass it to os.scandir? |

Good point, I didn't consider that. I suppose you're right. =) Closing. |

> I am not sure if it's possible to also support Windows. For reference, FindFirstFileW doesn't support handle-relative names, and neither does CreateFileW. At a lower level in Windows NT, NtCreateFile has always supported handle-relative names, but CPython doesn't use the NT API. fd support (not dirfd) could be added to listdir and scandir in Windows. A directory can be listed via GetFileInformationByHandleEx: FileFullDirectoryInfo. This doesn't query the short name, so it may perform better than FindFirstFileW. However, opening a directory with os.open can't be supported. VC++ still hasn't documented the _O_OBTAIN_DIR (0x2000) flag. |
