Three remarks:
(i)
# setfattr -x user.gat -v 12 /mnt/aa
Usage: setfattr {-n name|-x name} [-v value] [-h] file...
Try `setfattr --help' for more information.
# setfattr -x user.gat /mnt/aa
#
The Usage: message is too complicated, and moreover wrong. Maybe make it
Usage: setfattr -n name [-v value] [-h] file...
or: setfattr -x name [-h] file...
(ii)
# getfattr -d /mnt/aa
getfattr: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names
# file: mnt/aa
user.gut="abc"
#
It is unclear to me why getfattr has to tell me that it
is going to print the name given without a slash.
It seems silly - the working directory is nowhere near
/ or /mnt so this leading / is not at all superfluous,
and mnt/aa denotes an entirely different file.
(And it is not the name relative to the mountpoint either.)
Probably this is a leftover from ancient times that should be removed.
(Or is it an attempt to mimic tar?)
(iii)
The manpage tells me to send remarks to a.gruenbacher@xxxxxxxxxxxx
or linux-xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx, but the first address bounces.

By the way - is there improvement is the copyright situation?
Last I asked I was still not permitted to distribute the section 2-7
manpages in the manpages package.
[Requirement: page and modified versions can be distributed freely.]
