Subject: df -h shows ~10 times bigger size when umounting pendrive
Date: Sun, 22 Mar 2009 01:50:15 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200903220150.16004.a.miskiewicz@gmail.com> (raw)


I have 1GiB pendrive:

[ 1494.641661] scsi 4:0:0:0: Direct-Access              GOODDRIVE        1100

pendrive was mounted on /media/floppy

[arekm@t400 ~]$ df -h
System plik�w         rozm. u�yte dost. %u�. zamont. na
/dev/sda3             9,6G  4,2G  5,5G  44% /          
/dev/mapper/home      127G   52G   75G  42% /home      
tmpfs                 1,0G   28K  1,0G   1% /tmp       
none                  2,0G   12K  2,0G   1% /dev/shm   
/dev/sdb1             956M  657M  299M  69% /media/floppy

then I copied 650MB file and run umount /media/floppy

While umount was running and data were synced on the
pendrive df -h showed:

[arekm@t400 ~]$ df -h
System plik�w         rozm. u�yte dost. %u�. zamont. na
/dev/sda3             9,6G  4,2G  5,5G  44% /
/dev/mapper/home      127G   52G   75G  42% /home
tmpfs                 1,0G   28K  1,0G   1% /tmp
none                  2,0G   12K  2,0G   1% /dev/shm
/dev/sdb1             9,6G  4,2G  5,5G  44% /media/floppy


So it started to show 9.6G size when in process of umount.

Doesn't sound "normal" and correct.

[arekm@t400 ~]$ uname -a
Linux t400 2.6.29-rc8 #105 SMP Sun Mar 22 00:47:52 CET 2009 x86_64 
Intel(R)_Core(TM)2_Duo_CPU_____T9400__@_2.53GHz PLD Linux

(actually from git from about 1 hour ago)
