The xfs kernel modules at dev.centos.org are very handy. There are a couple of xfs modules in the 4.3 x86_64 directory, but I don't think it's for the x86_64 4.3 kernel (2.6.9-34). The latest ones in that directory is for the -22 kernel (I believe this came with CentOS 4.2).
Get one of the kernel-module-xfs SRPMS (doesn't matter which one, they are the same), install it and then edit the kernel-module-xfs.spec file and comment out the line:
%patch6 -p1
(or, use the patch to the spec file attached)
and then build the RPM using something like:
rpmbuild --target x86_64 --define "kernel_topdir /lib/modules/2.6.9-34/build" \ kernel-module-xfs.spec
see: ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/testing/RHEL4/README
I was given these instructions by Eric Sandeen @ SGI
I've been using 2.6.9-34 with XFS compiled in this way ...

Dang ... did I not publish those?
I will check now, and if they are not published, then I will do so.
OK ... should be some good xfs kernel modules for all the kernels now.
