du -h reports wrong file size on DrvFs

  • A brief description

du -h (du --block-size=human-readable) does not work correctly on DrvFs volumes (i.e., /mnt/c).

  • Expected results

If the file size is ~10M du -h should output 10M.

  • Actual results (with terminal output if applicable)

Totally wrong file size (for example 5 GB for a 10 MB file!)

  • Your Windows build number

Windows 10 Creators Update
Windows 10 Pro Version 1703 Build 15063.138

$ du -h test.bin

The command works fine on VolFs:

$ mv test.bin ~/
$ cd
$ du -h test.bin
10M     test.bin

On DrvFs the stat system call returns a bogus number of blocks (maybe file size + 1?):

$ stat ~/test.bin
  File: '/home/marco/test.bin'

The bug fix should be on its way: #2211 (comment)
