Therefore this line is a no-op: +LLDLIBS = $(LIBATTR) Change it to: LLDLIBS = -lattr And the xfs_reno should then link. BTW, if you want extra points and add the autoconf magic to the patch, copy it from the xfsdump tree. The places you need to copy from are: $ git grep -l LIBATTR |grep -v Makefile configure.ac include/builddefs.in m4/package_attrdev.m4 $ And for even more bonus points, you could write a basic xfstest that creates a bunch of 64 bit inodes and then runs xfs_reno on it and checks that they get moved to 32 bit inodes. At that point, we could probably pull the xfs_reno patch into xfsprogs and ship it....
