--- Comment #1 from Dave Chinner <david@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> ---
Emitting DT_UNKOWN is expeceted behaviour if the filesystem does provide dirent
type information to readdir. XFS filesystems that do not have the "mkfs.xfs -n
ftype=1" parameter set will behave this way (have for 15 years). "ftype=1" is
the default in recent xfsprogs releases so new filesystems will return types
other than DT_UNKNOWN, but old/existing filesytsem without this parameter set
will always return DT_UNKNOWN.

Not a bug, nothing needs fixing, please close.
