Yes, it does that even without quota plugin loaded, because the kernel returns EDQUOT failures for syscalls. To get current quota usage and quota warnings working, the quota-fs.c code would have to know about the XFS directory quotas. You're welcome to write the code for it, but it's a very low priority for me. > this is nice feature of xfs, do not know if other fs do it, that is so! > useful in scenario with vusers, or, would be :) Usually people use virtual quotas (Maildir++, dict) for virtual users.
