Hi,
I *think* it all boils down to XFS[1] being bad and it should be
returning ENOATTR rather than EINVAL for unknown xattr names; according
to the getxattr() manpage.
The previous patch just plasters over the problem (as we should never be
getting to acl_ptn4_acl_trans() on an XFS filesystem). The result is
that you see the ACL's on a NFSv4 mount, but local filesystems they are
invisible.
The attached patch fixes things (hopefully) properly.
Cheers
