Description Raghavendra Bhat 2010-02-08 05:35:11 UTC
On the CIFS mount-point the du command shows wrong disk value. It shows a minimum of 1.0M.
Ex:

touch a
echo "1" > a
du -sh a

The output of above command shows 1.0M. It happens with any file whose size is less than 1.0MB.

This seems to be a kernel problem. This is reproducible for the kernel versions 2.6.29 or lesser. Works fine with the higher versions.

Good to know this known issue in the kernel.  I would also say that CIFS is used mostly in windows and testing this functionality in windows is more required than GNU/Linux.
