XFS is included in the 2.5 series as of 2.5.36. We might even be included at some point in the 2.4 series when some 2.5 features are backported. There are more core kernel changes for 2.4, so the patch is a bit more intrusive. Still, the easiest way to get the “latest and greatest” is by checking the out the xfs development tree by cvs.
