file system bsize bfree block

Hi All
I'm using PRTG to measure system parameters like CPU, memory and file system usage, but from PRTG I come across these parameters:
file system bsize
file system bfree
file system block
Can anyone tell me what do they mean with respect to a output of a bdf command?

Thank you in advance

Fernando

getmnt(2)							System Calls Manual							 getmnt(2)

Name
       getmnt - get information about mounted file systems

Syntax
       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include <sys/param.h>
       #include <sys/mount.h>

       getmnt(start, buffer, nbytes, mode, path)
       int *start;
       struct fs_data *buffer;
       int  nbytes, mode;
       char  *path;

Description
       The system call retrieves information about mounted file systems.

       The mode argument is one of the following: or

       If  mode  is or then path is the name of a single file system for which information is desired, start and nbytes are ignored, and buffer is
       assumed to be large enough to hold one structure.

       If mode is or then path is ignored.  The start argument is the current logical location within the internal system mount table and must	be
       initially  set  to The start argument is updated to reflect the current logical location within the system mount table, allowing successive
       executions of to retrieve information about all the mounted file systems.  The nbytes argument defines the size of buffer, into	which  the
       file  system information is returned.  Buffer sizes must be a multiple of bytes.  Larger buffer sizes allow information about multiple file
       systems to be returned.

       If mode is or then dynamic information (the number of free inodes and the number of free blocks) could be out of date, but these calls  are
       guaranteed to return.  The file system information in memory is not updated.

       If  mode  is  or then the file system information in memory is updated.	However, if the server of any file system for which information is
       being retrieved is down, then these calls will hang until the server responds.

       When information about multiple file systems is returned, it is stored within consecutive buffer locations.  The information for each  file
       system is described by the structure
       struct fs_data {
	    struct    fs_data_req    fd_req;   /* required data */
	    u_int     fd_spare[113];	  /* spare */
       };   /* 2560 bytes */

       struct fs_data_req {    /* required part for all file systems */
	    u_int     flags;	/* how mounted */
	    u_int     mtsize;	/* max transfer size in bytes */
	    u_int     otsize;	/* optimal transfer size in bytes */
	    u_int     bsize;	/* fs block size in bytes for vm code */
	    u_int     fstype;	/* see ../h/fs_types.h	*/
	    u_int     gtot;	/* total number of gnodes */
	    u_int     gfree;	/* # of free gnodes */
	    u_int     btot;	/* total number of 1K blocks */
	    u_int     bfree;	/* # of free 1K blocks */
	    u_int     bfreen;	/* user consumable 1K blocks */
	    u_int     pgthresh; /* min size in bytes before paging*/
	    int  uid;	   /* uid that mounted me */
	    dev_t     dev;	/* major/minor of fs */
	    dev_t     pad;	/* alignment: dev_t is a short*/
	    char devname[MAXPATHLEN + 4];  /* name of dev */
	    char path[MAXPATHLEN + 4];	   /* name of mount point */
       }

Return Values
       Upon  successful  completion,  a value indicating the number of structures stored in buffer is returned.  If the file system is not mounted
       (mode is or or there are no more file systems in the mount table (mode is or is returned.  Otherwise, is returned and the  global  variable
       errno is set to indicate the error.

Diagnostics
       [ENOTDIR]	 A component of the path prefix of path is not a directory.

       [EINVAL] 	 Invalid argument.

       [ENAMETOOLONG]	 The length of a component of path exceeds 255 characters, or the length of path exceeds 1023 characters.

       [ENOENT] 	 The file referred to by path does not exist.

       [EACCESS]	 Search permission is denied for a component of the path prefix of path.

       [ELOOP]		 Too many symbolic links were encountered in translating path.

       [EFAULT] 	 Either buffer or start causes an illegal address to be referenced.

       [EIO]		 An I/O error occurred while reading from the file system.
