Summary     : Utilities for managing the XFS filesystem
Description :
A set of commands to use the XFS filesystem, including mkfs.xfs.

XFS is a high performance journaling filesystem which originated
on the SGI IRIX platform.  It is completely multi-threaded, can
support large files and large filesystems, extended attributes,
variable block sizes, is extent based, and makes extensive use of
Btrees (directories, extents, free space) to aid both performance
and scalability.

Refer to the documentation at http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/
for complete details.  This implementation is on-disk compatible
with the IRIX version of XFS.

Update Information:

xfsprogs: duplicate extent btrees in xfs_repair need locking    The per-ag
duplicate extent btrees can be search concurrently from multiple threads. This
occurs when inode extent lists are being processed and inodes with extents in
the same AG are checked concurrently. The btrees have an internal traversal
cursor, so doing concurrent searches can result in the cursor being corrupted
for both searches.    Add an external lock for each duplicate extent tree and
use it for searches, inserts and deletes to ensure that we don't trash the state
of any operation.

This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.  Use 
su -c 'yum update xfsprogs' at the command line.
