hmm, yes for 1.9.x ...

interesting, any trace of the compile errors ...

hmm, well, okay ... so be it ...

assumed that it really does work, you have tagxid
enabled for the filesystem, the dlimit entry was
added, and the limit set, then the df/df -i should
adjust the values to 'match' the limits, i.e. it
will reduce the available size to the minimum of
available space and configured limit ...

remember, values are
  blocks/max-blocks/inodes/max-inodes/root-reserve
and don't forget to specify a path to the filesystem

example:

# mount -o tagxid /dev/discs/disc1/part1 /vservers
# chcontext --ctx 100 df
  New security context is 100
  Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
  /dev/root 31698 25243 6455 80% /
  /dev/discs/disc1/part1 253775 185884 54789 78% /vservers

# vdlimit -a -x 100 -S 0,1000,0,100,10 /vservers
# chcontext --ctx 100 df
  New security context is 100
  Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
  /dev/root 31698 25243 6455 80% /
  /dev/discs/disc1/part1 1000 0 899 0% /vservers

(vdlimit compiled on mandrake, then tested on
 2.6.9-rc2-vs1.9.2.28.4 but should work since
 1.9.2, even for some 1.9.1.x versions)
