Introduction to XFS

The XFS package contains administration and debugging tools for the XFS file system.

Non-Multilib

Compile the package:

 autoconf &&
 sed -i Makefile \
     -e '/autoconf/d' \
     -e 's@default: $(CONFIGURE)@default:@' &&
 ./configure --prefix=/ --exec-prefix=/ --sbindir=/sbin \
    --bindir=/usr/sbin --libdir=/lib --libexecdir=/usr/lib \
    --includedir=/usr/include --mandir=/usr/share/man \
    --datadir=/usr/share &&
 make DEBUG=-DNDEBUG  

Install the package:

make install install-dev

Command Explanations

sed -i '/autoconf/d' Makefile: This command disables running autoconf because it is unnecessary.

make DEBUG=-DNDEBUG: The XFS build will fail using the default -DDEBUG flags.

32Bit

Compile the package:

 autoconf &&
 sed -i Makefile \
     -e '/autoconf/d' \
     -e 's@default: $(CONFIGURE)@default:@' &&
 CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" ./configure --prefix=/ --exec-prefix=/ --sbindir=/sbin \
    --bindir=/usr/sbin --libdir=/lib --libexecdir=/usr/lib --includedir=/usr/include \
    --mandir=/usr/share/man --datadir=/usr/share &&
 make DEBUG=-DNDEBUG 

Install the package:

make install install-dev

N32

Compile the package:

 autoconf &&
 sed -i Makefile \
     -e '/autoconf/d' \
     -e 's@default: $(CONFIGURE)@default:@' &&
 CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" ./configure --prefix=/ --exec-prefix=/ --sbindir=/sbin \
    --bindir=/usr/sbin --libdir=/lib32 --libexecdir=/usr/lib32 --includedir=/usr/include \
    --mandir=/usr/share/man --datadir=/usr/share &&
 make DEBUG=-DNDEBUG 

Install the package:

make install install-dev

64Bit

Compile the package:

 autoconf &&
 sed -i Makefile \
     -e '/autoconf/d' \
     -e 's@default: $(CONFIGURE)@default:@' &&
 CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" ./configure --prefix=/ --exec-prefix=/ --sbindir=/sbin \
    --bindir=/usr/sbin --libdir=/lib64 --libexecdir=/usr/lib64 --includedir=/usr/include \
    --mandir=/usr/share/man --datadir=/usr/share &&
 make DEBUG=-DNDEBUG 

Install the package:

make install install-dev

Contents

Installed Programs:	fsck.xfs, mkfs.xfs, xfs_admin, xfs_bmap, xfs_check, xfs_copy, xfs_db, xfs_freeze, xfs_growfs, xfs_info, xfs_io, xfs_logprint, xfs_mkfile, xfs_ncheck, xfs_repair, and xfs_rtcp

Installed Directory:	/usr/share/doc/xfsprogs

Short Descriptions

fsck.xfs	simply exits with a zero status, since XFS partitions are checked at mount time.
mkfs.xfs	constructs an XFS file system.
xfs_admin	changes the parameters of an XFS file system.
xfs_bmap	prints block mapping for an XFS file.
xfs_check	checks XFS file system consistency.
xfs_copy	copies the contents of an XFS file system to one or more targets in parallel.
xfs_db	is used to debug an XFS file system.
xfs_freeze	suspends access to an XFS file system.
xfs_growfs	expands an XFS file system.
xfs_info	is equivalent to invoking xfs_growfs, but specifying that no change to the file system is to be made.
xfs_io	is a debugging tool like xfs_db, but is aimed at examining the regular file I/O path rather than the raw XFS volume itself.
xfs_logprint	prints the log of an XFS file system.
xfs_mkfile	creates an XFS file, padded with zeroes by default.
xfs_ncheck	generates pathnames from inode numbers for an XFS file system.
xfs_quota	is a utility for reporting and editing various aspects of filesystem quota.
xfs_repair	repairs corrupt or damaged XFS file systems.
xfs_rtcp	copies a file to the real-time partition on an XFS file system.
libhandle.so	contains functions to map filesystem handles to a corresponding open file descriptor for that filesystem.
