Re:Does this work on JFS?

The LWN kernel archive shows a patch added in 2002:

This devworks article briefly describes the implementation of xattrs on JFS:

As far as I can tell, the same commands should work. I am not sure how to enable the feature in JFS tho. You might want to ask on the JFS mailing list.
