I'd suggest adjusting the exclusion list to the file systems you want to
exclude.

I.e.
alias df=3D'df -x tmpfs -x devtmpfs -x loop'

That works on my system as well as:
alias df=3D'df -t xfs'

Certainly prompting the user for wanted defaults and adding them to
their .shellrc could be part of an initial run of *some* utilities
that wouldn't cause hard-coded side-effects.

I'm not looking for an "excuse". df (through no fault of its own) has 
evolved into a bad program that needs fixing. Backward compatibility 
concerns are real and we should take them into account, but they should 
not be an "excuse" for refusing to fix a bad program.

I would prefer _not_ to change the default behavior (including the behavior
of commonly used options).  There are downstream consumers who care about=20
compatibility in the first place.

I see the point ... and agree.

Possibly.
But still the same question: how many users would like to see them
per default, and how many do not?
I would not like to argue for something like a ~/.dfrc, but it seems there
are a lot of different flavors of wishes out there.
Yet leaving the default seems to be a wise choice to me.

FWIW: df has the -x option, but if someone would use it in an alias like
"df -x sqashfs", then there's currently no chance to override it again:

  $ alias df='/usr/bin/df -x tmpfs'
  $ df -t tmpfs
  df: file system type 'tmpfs' both selected and excluded

Have a nice day,
Berny

As an interesting use-case (though not common),
I recently configured a raspberry PI device,
and wanted to mount as many locations on tmpfs as possible,
e.g. "/tmp" "/var/tmp", "/var/log" etc.

In was very useful in those cases to be able to see separate
tmpfs file system listed, with information about how big they
are and how much space was used.

Also in other systems where "/tmp" is a "tmpfs",
users might want to see how much space is available.

If we hide it by default, they can of course use "df /tmp"
or "df --all" - it's not about removing this option,
it is just about making users' life harder or easier,
and making unexpected changes.


I recently also encountered a change in a default behavior of
a program which I've been using a very long time - and it is *very*
frustrating to have something that worked "just fine" for so long
being changed.

That's an interesting case, where I would think you'd want to see it,
because you explicitly mounted it.

I agree, but think this needs to be communicated very well,
and in advance - perhaps announce this change ahead of time to
the respective package maintainers of each distribution - just so
they'll know it's coming (and also have a way to revert it if they don't
like it).

Possibly hiding "squashfs" of readonly-mounts could get rid of those snaps?

It is certainly inconvenient if that's not what you are looking for
(and certainly most desktop users aren't).

But I'm not sure if it's easy to find a set of criteria
that would work well while having minimal unexpected side effects of 
hiding entries people in other systems do expect to see.

Out of curiosity,
can you share the output of the following commands on the same system?

     lsblk

     df -x tmpfs -x devtmpfs -x squashfs


Thanks,

What is so special about tmpfs so that you would like to see it?

Here on my openSUSE:Tumbleweed system, I see the following:

  $ df -T
  Filesystem     Type     1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
  devtmpfs       devtmpfs  10187924         8  10187916   1% /dev

  tmpfs          tmpfs      2039808        20   2039788   1% /run/user/1000

(The /FULL_PARTITION_TMPDIR is used by a special coreutils test.)

I think I could well live with adding 'devtmpfs' and 'tmpfs' to the
pseudo file systems in gnulib's "mountlist.c".

This seems to be a small change, and not satisfying the snap case.
Yet, I agree with Assaf that changing the defaults has to be done
with caution.  Eliding r/o filesystems or where usage<1% doesn't
look like such.

Have a nice day,
Berny

It could certainly be multiple sets of patches. But let's face it, df's utility 
for ordinary interactive use has degraded significantly with time due to all the 
random filesystems people have been adding, and we shouldn't keep our heads in 
the sands about this. df's default needs to change, one way or another.

I mean c'mon, here's the output of 'df' on the Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS workstation 
I'm typing this particular message on. In any sane system there would be only 
four lines of non-header output (for tmpfs etc, /, /home, and 
/media/eggert/B827-D456), but df is outputting 28 lines. This is ridiculous.

I would humbly suggest caution with such unexpected user-facing changes
to the default output of 'df' - learning the lessons from changing the 
quotes in 'ls'.

Countless users have been using 'df' in their own ways, and have gotten
used to certain outputs.

This thread originated by a request to "clean up" the output on newer
ubuntu machines which use "snap" packages as /dev/loopN .

Let's not turn that into a drastic change that will affect many other
existing systems - the users on other systems did not ask for any changes.

---

Specifically for "default drop filesystems where usage is 1% or less" -
I can think of few cases off the top of my head where this would be
extremely confusing:

- I recently installed a 33TB raid file system. The usage on that system
is at %1 and will stay like so for at least several days.

- Amazon cloud services (AWS) offers an NFS4 service (they call it 
"EFS") that has reported size of 8 exabytes. There too usage could be at 
%1 for a long long time.

---


For cases where I want to list only the "real" storage, I typically use
an alias such as:

    alias dff='df -h -x tmpfs -x devtmpfs'

And it would be very easy and least disruptive to recommend
to ubuntu users to add "-x squashfs" or another file system to ignore.


Perhaps we can come up with a recommended list of "lesser" file systems
to ignore (or conditions such as read-only file
systems) and add it as a new option, but please let's not make it the
default.



My two cents,
  - assaf

Yes, looking at the sample output I gave earlier, I'd say we could by def=
ault=20
drop filesystems where usage is 1% or less. That would solve the problem =
for my=20
workstation. This is roughly akin to the "used=3D=3D0" test you're sugges=
ting.

(I don't know if this would address the problem of small snap loop device=
s. I=20
haven't seen sample df output from that.)

What you mean by "available=3D=3D0"? Actual zero-size filesystems, or fil=
esystems=20
whose size is less than some epsilon? What would the epsilon be? Can you =
give an=20
example?

What df tries to show now is a deduplicated list of file systems
that have consumable storage. Maybe read-only could be valid to drop
by default, but I've worked on systems where certain file-systems
were read-only most of the time, but they were consumable.
I wonder could we key (also) on used==0||available==0.

On my Fedora 30 workstation that option doesn't make any difference.=20
Regardless of whether '-x squashfs' is used, I see this output from 'df':

and most of these lines are useless.

For many years we've put up with the problem of too many filesystems in=20
the default plain 'df' output, and now's as good a time as any to fix=20
that. On my workstation there should be only four lines of information,=20
one each for /, /home, /boot, and the shared tmpfs area.

Presumably readonly filesystems should also be omitted by default, since=20
they're not something people ordinarily care about.

We can add a flag or two for the rare people who want to see these=20
normally-useless lines.

Well if you want to exclude nested file systems like that,
you could try:

   alias df='df -x squashfs'

Hi there

I got this email address from the 'df' man page. Hope it's still active
and the right place for feedback.

With recent changes to Ubuntu and the increasing use of 'snap' packaging
for all sorts of things, the 'df' utility output is now quite jumbled
and messy. My fairly normal system now has 17 /dev/loopNN mounts for
various different software packages. I would rather not see these things
by default. Or at least, I would like to have a convenient
single-character flag that allows me to suppress those mounts from my
'df' output.

One useful approach would be a flag that suppresses read-only
filesystems. Another approach would be to suppress read-only filesystems
that have no free space. Perhaps there are other good approaches too.

I don't know if this issue is also relevant for 'docker' or not.

Cheers
JP
