Run it through the xfstests suite:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=fs/xfs/xfstests-dev.git;a=summary

(I have a sheevaplug too, thanks to some nice folks @Marvell, and
I really need to get regular qa going on it in return... have been
too busy so far) :(

There's a readme in the tree, but basically just create a local.config like:

#        - setenv TEST_DEV "device containing TEST PARTITION"
#        - setenv TEST_DIR "mount point of TEST PARTITION"
#        - setenv SCRATCH_DEV "device containing SCRATCH PARTITION"
#        - setenv SCRATCH_MNT "mount point for SCRATCH PARTITION"

TEST_DEV=/dev/sdb1
TEST_DIR=/mnt/test
SCRATCH_DEV=/dev/sdb3
SCRATCH_MNT=/mnt/scratch

mkfs.xfs $TEST_DEV, and then run

#./check -g auto
