Hello.
I was looking for a good fs that allows to share files beetween Linux and FreeBSD without risking to lose some important data and I found XFS on this old thread :
forums.freebsd.org
I've googled a little and I found that it also has the write support for both the OSes. Someone knows if it is stable or not ? It is more stable than EXT4 or NTFS ? Because actually,after having had some data loss,I stopped mounting those file systems while using FreeBSD. I want use it to store data,even files bigger than 200GB each one.
Just to refresh some important informations buried in the past,this is how it can / could be used :

Solved - XFS support
I need to transfer data from two external HDDs created on Red Hat to FreeBSD file server. geom disk list and gpart show device Have no problem seeing the partitions. However it looks like XFS module has being removed. Can somebody confirm this? I see FUSE module for XFS...

I just tested this myself on FreeBSD 11.1 and it's working like a charm. The steps I took was these:
- Install fusefs-lkl with pkg install fusefs-lkl
- Load the fuse kernel module with kldload fuse
- Optionally add fuse_load="YES" to /boot/loader.conf
- Mount the drive with lklfuse -o type=xfs /dev/da0s1 /mnt (change da0s1 to your own drive)
