NAME
df - report file system space usage
SYNOPSIS
df [OPTION]... [FILE]...
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents the GNU version of df. df displays the amount of space available on the file system containing each file name argument. If no file name is given, the space available on all currently
mounted file systems is shown. Space is shown in 1K blocks by default, unless the environment variable POSIXLY_CORRECT is set, in which case 512‐byte blocks are used.
If an argument is the absolute file name of a device node containing a mounted file system, df shows the space available on that file system rather than on the file system containing the device node. This version of
df cannot show the space available on unmounted file systems, because on most kinds of systems doing so requires very nonportable intimate knowledge of file system structures.
OPTIONS
Show information about the file system on which each FILE resides, or all file systems by default.
Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.
-a, --all
include pseudo, duplicate, inaccessible file systems
-B, --block-size=SIZE
scale sizes by SIZE before printing them; e.g., ’-BM’ prints sizes in units of 1,048,576 bytes; see SIZE format below
-h, --human-readable
print sizes in powers of 1024 (e.g., 1023M)
-H, --si
print sizes in powers of 1000 (e.g., 1.1G)
-i, --inodes
list inode information instead of block usage
-k like --block-size=1K
-l, --local
limit listing to local file systems
--no-sync
do not invoke sync before getting usage info (default)
--output[=FIELD_LIST]
use the output format defined by FIELD_LIST, or print all fields if FIELD_LIST is omitted.
-P, --portability
