zfs discuss - Dec 2007 - Query related to ZFS Extended Attributes

I would like to know the method of getting/setting  Extended Attributes (EAs)
for files and directoreis.
  Also I would like to know is there any difference in getting/setting EAs from
UFS filesystem ?. I mean can we use same system calls, open, openat etc... to
extract EA information?
   
  If there arey new APIs related in extrcting EAs of ZFS file system please
share.
  Also any header files or libraries needs to be included to the program that
get/set EAs for ZFS.
   
  thanks & regards,
  sridhar.
