NAME
       df - report file system disk space usage
 
SYNOPSIS
       df [OPTION]... [FILE]...
 
DESCRIPTION
       This manual page documents the GNU version of df. df
       displays the amount of disk 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. Disk 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 disk
       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 (which is
       always the root file system). 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 struc-
       tures.
 
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 file systems having 0 blocks
 
       -B, --block-size=SIZE use SIZE-byte blocks
 
       -h, --human-readable
              print sizes in human readable format (e.g., 1K
              234M 2G)
 
       -H, --si
              likewise, but use powers of 1000 not 1024
 
       -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)
 
       -P, --portability
              use the POSIX output format
 
       --sync invoke sync before getting usage info
 
       -t, --type=TYPE
              limit listing to file systems of type TYPE
 
       -T, --print-type
              print file system type
 
       -x, --exclude-type=TYPE
              limit listing to file systems not of type TYPE
 
       -v (ignored)
 
       --help display this help and exit
 
       --version
              output version information and exit
 
       SIZE may be (or may be an integer optionally followed
       by) one of following: kB 1000, K 1024, MB 1000*1000, M
       1024*1024, and so on for G, T, P, E, Z, Y.
