How to get list of inodes in a dir ?

I would try debugfs /dev/hdxx 'where xx=hdd and partition' if you are using ext2/3 file system. Use the 'man' command to find out how to use debugfs. (man--debugfs , I think) or from within debugfs use ? for help.

I'm not sure if it will give what you want or not.

ls -i /directory/here

ls -i /directory/here

Yes.
] ls -i
gives the list of name of dir/files and ther i-nodes.

But I want to know, how to get it in program ?

I think you need to use iget().. First see how the inode cache works.. so you can easily solve your problem..
Thanks,

I guess ,you need readdir() system call.
Check

man readdir
