               for (;;) {

                   /*
                    * Read next directory entry.
                    */
                   ret = ioctl( fd, VFAT_IOCTL_READDIR_BOTH, entry);

                   /*
                    * If an error occurs, the return value is -1.
                    * If d_reclen is zero, the end of the directory
                    * list has been reached.
                    */
                   if (ret == -1 || entry[0].d_reclen == 0)
                       break;

Quick reviewed, and looks good. However, entry[0].d_reclen == 0 works as
backward compatibility though. The example might be good to use usual
way of getdents().

I.e., "ret" means
        -1 == error
        0  == EOD
