can it be NULL?

and the size of the area pointed to by *ubuffer?

The structure members are as follows:

is the inode number for this record

contains the extended flags which are set in this inode

I dig it but you made an ioctl_xfs_fsgetxattr(2) manpage...

(I forget, how do we alias manpages?)

also this should go in SEE ALSO

storage space extents sounds odd...

is the number of data extents in this file.

is the number of extended attribute extents in this file?  *shrug*
