XFS is the filesystem that originated from SGI and was ported to Linux, it is a journaling filesystem.
xFS looks to be a filesystem under development at Berkeley, as such you will not find it in a production operating system, at least not for a while.
The name collision is an unfortunate source of confusion.
Edit: Removed reference to Berkeley making an unfortunate choice since their project existed first.
