That is correct. The vfs_zfsacl VFS module basically uses the Solaris ACL
api (acl / facl) to convert the native ZFS ACL to an NT ACL (via samba's
generic NFSv4 ACL code). This means that on FreeBSD there's an added
wrinkle of needing sysutils/libsunacl to convert the Solaris ACL api into
the native FreeBSD ACL api. None of this works on linux. If FreeBSD is
being used with zfs, the zfsacl vfs module should be used (not acl_xattr).

Currently, ZFS on Linux does not support NFSv4 ACLs. You can verify via the
command "zfs get acltype <pool/dataset>". "acltype" should be "posix" or
"posixacl" depending on ZFS version, and a vfs module storing the NT ACL in
an xattr (i.e. acl_xattr) should probably be used.
