		590	Quite similar to C<aio_readdir>, but the C<$flags> argument allows to tune

		598
		599	=item IO::AIO::READDIR_DENTS
		600
		601	When this flag is off, then the callback gets an arrayref with of names
		602	only (as with C<aio_readdir>), otherwise it gets an arrayref with
		603	C<[$name, $type, $inode]> arrayrefs, each describing a single directory
		604	entry in more detail.
		605
		606	C<$name> is the name of the entry.
		607
		608	C<$type> is one of the C<IO::AIO::DT_xxx> constants:
		609
		610	C<IO::AIO::DT_UNKNOWN>, C<IO::AIO::DT_FIFO>, C<IO::AIO::DT_CHR>, C<IO::AIO::DT_DIR>,
		611	C<IO::AIO::DT_BLK>, C<IO::AIO::DT_REG>, C<IO::AIO::DT_LNK>, C<IO::AIO::DT_SOCK>,
		612	C<IO::AIO::DT_WHT>.
		613
		614	C<IO::AIO::DT_UNKNOWN> means just that: readdir does not know. If you need to
		615	know, you have to run stat yourself. Also, for speed reasons, the C<$type>
		616	scalars are read-only: you can not modify them.
		617
		618	C<$inode> is the inode number (which might not be exact on systems with 64
		619	bit inode numbers and 32 bit perls). This field has unspecified content on
		620	systems that do not deliver the inode information.
		621
		622	=item IO::AIO::READDIR_DIRS_FIRST
		623
		624	When this flag is set, then the names will be returned in an order where
		625	likely directories come first. This is useful when you need to quickly
		626	find directories, or you want to find all directories while avoiding to
		627	stat() each entry.
		628
		629	If the system returns type information in readdir, then this is used
		630	to find directories directly. Otherwise, likely directories are files
		631	beginning with ".", or otherwise files with no dots, of which files with
		632	short names are tried first.
		633
		634	=item IO::AIO::READDIR_STAT_ORDER
		635
		636	When this flag is set, then the names will be returned in an order
		637	suitable for stat()'ing each one. That is, when you plan to stat()
		638	all files in the given directory, then the returned order will likely
		639	be fastest.
