To find the size of a block in Linux filesystem, we can try the following
The commands dumpe2fs, tune2fs and blockdev, give the block size of a file in bytes.
# dumpe2fs /dev/sda2 | grep "Block size"
dumpe2fs 1.41.12 (17-May-2010)
Block size: 4096
# tune2fs -l /dev/sda2 | grep -i "Block Size"
Block size: 4096
# blockdev --getbsz /dev/sda2
4096
Create a non-empty file and check it's size
# echo xyx > abc
# du -h abc
4.0K abc
