+.Dt XFS 5
+.Os
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm xfs
+.Nd "XFS file system"
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+To link into the kernel:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Cd "options XFS"
+.Ed
+.Pp
+To load as a kernel loadable module:
+.Pp
+.Dl "kldload xfs"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver will permit the
+.Fx
+kernel to access
+.Tn XFS
+file systems.
+.Sh EXAMPLES
+To mount a
+.Nm
+volume located on
+.Pa /dev/ad1s1 :
+.Pp
+.Dl "mount -t xfs /dev/ad1s1 /mnt"
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr nmount 2 ,
+.Xr unmount 2 ,
+.Xr fstab 5 ,
+.Xr mount 8
+.Sh NOTES
+The
+.Pa sysutils/xfsprogs
+port contains the
+.Cm mkfs.xfs
+utility for
+creating XFS file systems, and also other utilities for analyzing,
+and repairing XFS file systems.
+.Sh CAVEATS
+The port of XFS to
+.Fx
+is currently incomplete.
+Only read-only access is supported for XFS volumes.
+Writing to a volume is not supported.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fl p
+flag to
+.Cm mkfs.xfs
+can be used to create an XFS file system which is populated with files
+and other metadata.
+This can be used to quickly create a read-only file system which
+can be tested on
+.Fx .
+.Sh HISTORY
+XFS was originally written by SGI for the IRIX operating system.
+SGI ported XFS to Linux, and released the source code under the GNU
+Public License.  For more details, see:
+.Pa http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs
+.Pp
+The port to
+.Fx
+was based on the Linux port, and started by
+.An -nosplit
+.An Russell Cattelan Aq cattelan@xfs.org ,
+.An Alexander Kabaev Aq kan@FreeBSD.org ,
+and
+.An Craig Rodrigues Aq rodrigc@FreeBSD.org .
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm
+file system support
+first appeared in
+.Fx 7.0 .
