Hi Harris,
Thanks for giving this strace output.

Actually the bug is not in glusterfs's statfs(), but is in the way the 'df'
works in old version and new version.
In new version, it gets every information from statfs() only, where it works
fine. But with Gentoo (ie, the old coreutils), it gets f_bfree field (or say
st_blksize from stat()) is taken from stat(), where it is different as fuse
overrides the values sent by us to 4096.
This reduces your storage's size by 256 times. This change in statfs was
brought as to enhance the read/write as few applications send buffers
depending on this field.

Anyways, reverting it back to how it was earlier. So it should work fine
now. (patch-292)

Ubuntu client is running coreutils-5.96. The Gentoo client is running
coreutils-6.9-r1

After upgrading all servers and clients to patch 290

Ubuntu-6.06 client

glusterfs             294G   22G  258G   8% /mnt/glusterfs

This is correct.

Gentoo client

glusterfs             1.2G   85M  1.1G   8% /mnt/glusterfs

This bug was fixed earlier and is now broken again.
