	<para>
	<command>vfs_linux_xfs_sgid</command> is a VFS module to work around an
	old Linux XFS bug fixed in 3.11: the SGID bit is not inherited during mkdir
	when a default ACL is set
	(<ulink url="https://web.archive.org/web/20160320180937/http://oss.sgi.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=280">
	https://web.archive.org/web/20160320180937/http://oss.sgi.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=280
	</ulink> fixed by <ulink url="https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=42c49d7f249c2487f36d3314753d5d8ebcee8249">

	The <command>vfs_linux_xfs_sgid</command> VFS module will work around this
	bug by manually setting the SGID bit after a <command>mkdir</command>
	if the parent directory had the SGID bit set.
