Can you provide some justification here?  The freevxfs filesystem hasn't been substantially worked on since 2008, and it's read-only support.  I'm fairly concerned it will be of very limited value, as vxfs has likely had on-disk format chance in the past 7 years.

Sure. Quite simply I have two SCSI disks coming from an old UNIX machine and I want to mount them to retrieve the data they hold. I don't have access to the UNIX machine anymore.

Your use case is valid, but it isn't really enough for us to enable something distro-wide.

What kernel are you currently running?

I get that. My google search showed me however that I'm not the first one struggling with this issue, so this will probably be helpful to a few others in the future. Would there be any potential issue when the support is enabled? What would it take for me to convince you to eventually enable it?

$ uname -a
Linux mymachine.localdomain 4.0.6-300.fc22.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jun 23 13:58:53 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

This is the latest available one on an uptodate F22.

https://jwboyer.fedorapeople.org/pub/freevxfs.ko should load and get you whatever support is present in the kernel.
