I checked POSIX as a reference:
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/sys_statvfs.h.html#tag_13_63

unsigned long f_bsize    File system block size.
unsigned long f_frsize   Fundamental file system block size.
fsblkcnt_t    f_blocks   Total number of blocks on file system in units
of f_frsize.
fsblkcnt_t    f_bfree    Total number of free blocks.
