+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+virt-df is a \fIdf\fR\|(1)\-like utility for showing the actual disk usage
+of guests. Many command line options are the same as for ordinary
+\&\fIdf\fR.
+.PP
+It uses libvirt so it is capable of showing stats across a variety of
+different virtualization systems.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.IX Header "OPTIONS"
+.IP "\fB\-a\fR, \fB\-\-all\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-a, --all"
+Show all domains. The default is show only running (active) domains.
+.IP "\fB\-c uri\fR, \fB\-\-connect uri\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-c uri, --connect uri"
+Connect to libvirt \s-1URI\s0. The default is to connect to the default
+libvirt \s-1URI\s0, normally Xen.
+.IP "\fB\-\-csv\fR" 4
+.IX Item "--csv"
+Print the results in \s-1CSV\s0 format, suitable for importing into a
+spreadsheet or database.
+.Sp
+This option is only supported if virt-df was built with \s-1CSV\s0 support.
+.IP "\fB\-\-debug\fR" 4
+.IX Item "--debug"
+Emit debugging information on stderr. Please supply this if you
+report a bug.
+.IP "\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-human\-readable\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-h, --human-readable"
+Display human-readable sizes (eg. \*(L"10GiB\*(R" instead of large numbers).
+.IP "\fB\-i\fR, \fB\-\-inodes\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-i, --inodes"
+Display inode information.
+.Sp
+This option only works for Unix-like filesystems.
+.IP "\fB\-\-help\fR" 4
+.IX Item "--help"
+Display usage summary.
+.IP "\fB\-t diskimage\fR" 4
+.IX Item "-t diskimage"
+Test mode. Instead of checking libvirt for domain information, this
+runs virt-df directly on the disk image (or device) supplied. You may
+specify the \fB\-t\fR option multiple times.
+.IP "\fB\-\-version\fR" 4
+.IX Item "--version"
+Display version and exit.

+.SH "SHORTCOMINGS"
+.IX Header "SHORTCOMINGS"
+virt-df spies on the guest's disk image to try to work out how much
+disk space it is actually using. There are some shortcomings to this,
+described here.
+.PP
+(1) It only understands a limited set of partition types. Assuming
+that the files and partitions that we get back from libvirt / Xen
+correspond to block devices in the guests, we can go some way towards
+manually parsing those partitions to find out what they contain. We
+can read the \s-1MBR\s0, \s-1LVM\s0, superblocks and so on. However that's a lot of
+parsing work, and currently there is no library which understands a
+wide range of partition schemes and filesystem types (not even
+libparted which doesn't support \s-1LVM\s0 yet). The Linux kernel does
+support that, but there's not really any good way to access that work.
+.PP
+The current implementation uses a hand-coded parser which understands
+some formats (\s-1MBR\s0, \s-1LVM2\s0, ext2/3, \s-1DOS\s0 \s-1FAT\s0, Windows \s-1NTFS\s0, Linux swap and
+Linux suspend partitions).
+.PP
+(2) The statistics you get are delayed. The real state of, for
+example, an ext2 filesystem is only stored in the memory of the
+guest's kernel. The ext2 superblock contains some meta-information
+about blocks used and free, but this superblock is not up to date. In
+fact the guest kernel may not update it even on a 'sync', not until
+the filesystem is unmounted. Some operations do appear to write the
+superblock, for example \fIfsync\fR\|(2) [that is my reading of the ext2/3
+source code at least].
+.SH "SECURITY"
+.IX Header "SECURITY"
+The current code tries hard to be secure against malicious guests, for
+example guests which set up malicious disk partitions.
