+Normal POSIX interfaces (for example, \fBstat\fR(2), \fBls\fR(1) \fB-l\fR) perform
 this translation, so the \fB-i\fR option allows the output from \fBzfs
 userspace\fR to be compared directly with those utilities. However, \fB-i\fR
 may lead to confusion if some files were created by an SMB user before a
 SMB-to-POSIX name mapping was established. In such a case, some files will be owned
 by the SMB entity and some by the POSIX entity. However, the \fB-i\fR option
 will report that the POSIX entity has the total usage and quota for both.
