FreeBSD gets read-only XFS support
XFS (read-only) support committed to CURRENT via FreeBSD News
Support for XFS, the native filesystem for SGI systems, has been added to FreeBSD, although it is limited to just reading files at the present moment in time. Being a 64 bit filesystem means that theorectical file limits are raised to 9 million terabytes, should you have that amount of disk space on your BSD server farm. ![]()
XFS has been available in Linux kernels since the 2.4 series, so it’s good to see the BSD chaps catching up at last.
