Description Toralf Förster gentoo-dev 2005-08-31 00:48:58 UTC
And in addition the reported numbers of used blocks are different.

Here the results for a file system mounted as smbfs:

tfoerste@n22 ~/workspace/misc $ df /mnt/GSA/
Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
//foo.bar/    660653296 -73786976293836709276 1662150484 101% /mnt/GSA
tfoerste@n22 ~/workspace/misc $ df -m /mnt/GSA/
Filesystem           1M-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
//foo.bar/       645170 -72057594036949912   1623194 101% /mnt/GSA

And now the same - remounted ans cifs:

tfoerste@n22 ~/workspace/misc $ df /mnt/GSA/
Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
//foo.bar/    660733952 -18446744072707932160 1662353408 101% /mnt/GSA
tfoerste@n22 ~/workspace/misc $ df -m /mnt/GSA/
Filesystem           1M-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
//foo.bar/       645248 -18014398508503872   1623360 101% /mnt/GSA

Both have wrong negative results, but they differs, too !

Comment 1 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2005-08-31 10:24:27 UTC
df works for me with smbfs/cifs ...

you didnt say what the filesizes are *supposed* to report ... also, what version
of coreutils do you have exactly ?
Comment 2 Toralf Förster gentoo-dev 2005-09-01 03:43:32 UTC
windows says: "1.685.674.000.384 bytes free" (1,5 TB )

cygwin under windows reports with df -m:

$ df -m /cygdrive/g/
Filesystem           1M-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on

Hi,
anything ready for testing ?

Thanks for reporting that.  statfs64 is claiming that your file system
has more available than total blocks.  Clearly this is a bug in your
file system or kernel or something like that, but 'df' should output
more-useful information even when there's a bug elsewhere.

I think the output should look like this:

Filesystem           1M-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
//ehngsa.ibm.com/      2192704   -480512   2673216   -  /mnt/GSA

I've installed the following patch to CVS coreutils, so that it
generates this output.

2006-01-24  Paul Eggert  <eggert@cs.ucla.edu>

        * src/df.c (show_dev): If the file system claims to have
        more available than total blocks, report the number of used
        blocks as being total - available (a negative number) rather
        than as garbage.  Problem reported by Toralf Foerster.

Comment 9 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2006-01-25 18:02:12 UTC
then i'm gonna consider this fixed as the issue will be in the next release of coreutils

thanks for doing the hard work and making me look like a slacker :)
