I believe as a non root user you can use what is listed as available.
Difference
bewteen toal and used is avilable to superuser. This way superuser can
do some
operations on the filesystem even after it is reported as full. Also per
my understanding
once you reach this point it will show you the actual available capacity.

Notice that initially it reported u=2141, a=7600 t-(u+a)=500.
When I created a 8000 block file, now it u=10141 (2141 metadata,
8000 data), a=99 and u+a == t .
