Package: kernel-image-2.6.8-2-386
Version: 2.6.8-13
Severity: important
I have a 250Gb external USB 2.0 hard-drive formatted with FAT32 and "df"
always reports 64Kb of used space on it, although it contains a couple of
gigabytes.
At first I thought the problem might be in "df" itself, but the following
test code proves the statfs function is to blame. The values returned are
incorrect.
However, it does report correct values for another FAT32 partition I have
(70Gb).
----------- statfs.c -----------
#include <sys/vfs.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
struct statfs stats;
long used;
int kib;
if (argc < 2) {
printf("USAGE: %s <mountpoint>\n", argv[0]);
return 1;
}
statfs(argv[1], &stats);
used = stats.f_blocks - stats.f_bfree;
printf("f_bsize = %ld blocks\nf_blocks = %ld blocks\nf_bfree = %ld
blocks\nused = %ld blocks\n",
stats.f_bsize, stats.f_blocks, stats.f_bfree, used);
kib = stats.f_bsize / 1024;
printf("total = %ld KiB\nfree = %ld KiB\nused = %ld KiB\n",
kib * stats.f_blocks,
kib * stats.f_bfree,
kib * used);
return 0;
}
