Hi,
I'm using XFS on /home and facing a strange issue. When I add acl to
the mount options in /etc/fstab, the FS fails to mount during boot
with an error in dmesg which says invalid option acl whereas I'm able
to mount it using the mount command from the CLI.
For now I'm using a script in local.d to remount it with acl, but why
is this happening?
Also, XFS is compiled right into the kernel, not as a module (I
believe, because there's no module xfs in /lib/modules/3.2.6-gentoo.

AFAIK, by default XFS is mounted with acl support.
Plus, I can't find any "acl" word in the documentation:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=blob;f=Documentation/filesystems/xfs.txt;hb=HEAD
CMIIW, I never use XFS before in my life.
Rgds,

Well, I use XFS for performance. Earlier I was using ext4 and troubled
with sluggishness. Recently I came to know that ext4 has a mount option
data=writeback which improves performance manifolds (using that on
servers and it does do well than with the default ordered mode).

I use XFS a lot.
It does indeed not need the acl mount option.
Those features are available standard.
