How to judge an inode is a directory or mot in linux kernel

Question

I am working with Android 6.0 kernel, whose version is Linux 3.10. Now I wanna search all the inodes under a ext2 filesystem and judge wheather each of them is a directory or a file(such as a txt file).

Finally I found that it is S_ISDIR telling me the inode is a directory or a regular file.
