Package: manpages Version: 3.35-0.1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
% man proc | grep -A 2 -n '/proc/partition' 988: /proc/partitions 989- Contains major and minor numbers of each partition as well as number of 990- blocks and partition name. There's no mention of how many bytes are in a block, and no description of how block numbers are counted. The counting method seems relevant since 'df' returns different numbers; numbers which must have been counted using a different method: % D=/proc/partitions % cat $D | grep -w $D 8 37 58348048 sdc5 # show 'df /dev/sdc5' output, 1000 bytes per block % df -B 1KB $D Filesystem 1kB-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/sdc5 58765693 47037772 9337988 84% /tmp # Again, with 1024 byte blocks: % df -B 1K $D Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/sdc5 57388372 45935324 9119128 84% /tmp Summary: 1024b 57388372 1000b 58765693 proc 58348048 Neither 'df' block size matches 'proc'.
