Subject: [PATCH 1/3 V2] xfs_quota: document how the default quota is stored
Date: Thu, 3 Dec 2020 14:36:19 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <22ed7fd0-15ce-5906-d09a-eef15dece2bd@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2e9b1d0f-7ad8-b42a-ac2b-b1fdd9a9fb45@redhat.com>
Nowhere in the xfs_quota man page is the default quota described;
what it does or where it is stored. Add some brief information
about this.

+.SS Default Quotas
+The XFS quota subsystem allows a default quota to be enforced for any user which
+does not have a quota limit explicitly set.
+These limits are stored in and displayed as the root / ID #0 limits, although
+they do not actually limit the root user.
