I noticed a discrepancy between the output of
dfandGBfreein plotman. Did a bit of digging and it turns out that df usesf_bavail, which doesn't include the blocks allocated to root, 5% of the total by default [0]. Plotman usesf_bfreewhich includes all blocks. I'm no linux expert but it seems more accurate to report the writable blocks. In fact, some people recommend removing the reserved blocks to unlock extra space [1].This pr replaces the use of
f_bfreewithf_bavail. I'm not familiar enough with the whole codebase to know what kind of side effects this might have but I definitely prefer it for monitoring my plots.[0] https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/aix-43/diff-between-f_bavail-and-f_bfree-in-statfs-sys-call-207272/
