NAME

       xfs_mkfile - create an XFS file

SYNOPSIS

       xfs_mkfile [ -v ] [ -n ] size[k|b|m|g] filename ...

DESCRIPTION

       xfs_mkfile creates one or more files. The file is padded with zeroes by
       default.  The default size is in  bytes,  but  it  can  be  flagged  as
       kilobytes,  blocks,  megabytes,  or  gigabytes  with  the k, b, m, or g
       suffixes, respectively.

OPTIONS

       -v     Verbose. Report the names and sizes of created files.

       -n     No bytes. Create a holey file - that is, do not  write  out  any
              data, just seek to end of file and write a block.

                                                                 xfs_mkfile(8)
