linux and free space problems

if you have different size reported on a linux file system, on a df(disk free space) and du(disk usage), is because there are deleted/opened file in which the system is still writing. A solution may be to verify those open files, using “lsof +L1” will tell you which program is holding the files open.
Killing those process may clear space on your device.
