Change "total" in btrfs filesystem df output to "alloc"
Hello. There seem to be lots of questions in various forums re the output of btrfs fi df -- especially w.r.t. the usage of the word "total". For example see https://community.oracle.com/thread/2459838 I feel it would make the intent clearer if "total" were changed to "alloc" or "allocated" (if the short form is felt unclear). It would also help people understand the output of regular df on a btrfs system since one can understand easier that pre-allocated space would count as "used" space as it is not free! -- Shriramana Sharma ஶ்ரீரமணஶர்மா श्रीरमणशर्मा -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
