How can I detect how much free space is left on a btrfs-volume? As I read (and learned in practice!) "df" reports cannot be trusted if used on btrfs-volumes.

So it is no simple to estimate the free space: if every file is raid1 the real free space is half of the physical free space. But if some file are in raid1 (for examples /etc) and others are in raid0 (for example the ones under /usr which may be re-downloaded) the used space and the free space are difficult to estimate. There are some efforts to fix this kind of situation (see the thread "[PATCH] Btrfs-progs: add btrfsctl -i to print space info").> The used column is surprising: if it''s a mirror why 111.01 and > 111.03?
