The following sequence of patches (must be applied in order) implements
case-insensitive support in XFS in two ways:
  1. ASCII only case-insensitive
  2. Unicode case-insensitive mount
 
ASCII only case-insensitive support is a mkfs option and is primary
implemented to support existing IRIX filesystems migrating to Linux.
 
Unicode support is also a mkfs option, but the case-insensitive mode
is a mount time option.
 
The user space patches were posted back in January:
