We don't really have any manifest constants in XFS tied to 4K, AFAICT.
The only restriction is that blocksize is tied to PAGE_SIZE &
PAGE_CACHE_SIZE ... both of which should be same for a given ARCH.
Internally we had tried XFS on IA64 about 3 months back.
At that time some things were functional and the instability
mostly came from the hardware ...
