As far as reserved delayed allocation blocks is concerned, ext4 deducts the space from the available space in the file system and from the user's quota when the user writes to a file and when the space is reserved for delayed allocation. My understanding is that xfs does the same thing. Also, the linux native quota predates XFS's quota system (which came from Irix), so there are some subtle differences between them, although we do try keep things as consistent as possible. For example, only recently we added support for project quota to ext4, which is something that used to be XFS only. However, there is a lot of complexity in terms of the low-level system interfaces for quota. Most of this is hidden in the quota-tools userspace package. Does this help? - Ted
