I wanted to build a system running the XFS file system and Linux Security
Modules (LSM), so I had a look at hacking the patch files to make them work.

I found one issue where the patches severely conflict, system call 1217 on
IA64 is sys_setxattr for XFS and is sys_security for LSM!

One of the projects has to change the system call.

As far as I know the system calls for the ACL interface have just been commited. In 2.5 that is. I also believe that interface will we integrated in 2.4.20 when that is due.

Seth, I'm emailing you because from a quick glance at the FAQ I couldn't find
a better person to email regarding XFS issues.

I have cc'ed the mailinglist. The SGI gurus know exactly what the current state of affairs is.

Cheers
