When the example udev rules in the documentation are used without
modification, warnings like the one shown below appear in the system logs:/var/log/messages:Aug 22 11:09:11 kung udevd[445]: NAME="%k" \
is superfluous and breaks kernel supplied names, please remove \
it from /etc/udev/rules.d/60-aoe.rules:26Removing the term does not cause any problems with the creation of the
special character and block device nodes.Signed-off-by: Ed Cashin

With this change, the aoe driver treats the value zero as special for
the aoe_deadsecs module parameter. Normally, this value specifies the
number of seconds during which the driver will continue to attempt
retransmits to an unresponsive AoE target. After aoe_deadsecs has
elapsed, the aoe driver marks the aoe device as "down" and fails all
I/O.The new meaning of an aoe_deadsecs of zero is for the driver to
retransmit commands indefinitely.Signed-off-by: Ed Cashin

The old area has a new URL. Also, now that the driver can perform better,
it is worth mentioning the VM settings that help aoe to sink dirty pages
out early, avoiding unecessary memory pressure when much I/O is going on.Signed-off-by: Ed Cashin

Usage of /etc/modprobe.conf file was deprecated by module-init-tools and
is no longer parsed by new kmod tool. References to this file are
replaced in Documentation, comments and Kconfig according to the
context.There are also some references to the old /etc/modules.conf from 2.4
kernels that are being removed.Signed-off-by: Lucas De Marchi

Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch
updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/*
Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult,
the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated.
Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching
on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address
to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users.Signed-off-by: Justin P. Mattock

When an AoE device is detected, the kernel is informed, and a new block device
is created. If the device is unused, the block device corresponding to remote
device that is no longer available may be removed from the system by telling
the aoe driver to "flush" its list of devices.Without this patch, software like GPFS and LVM may attempt to read from AoE
devices that were discovered earlier but are no longer present, blocking until
the I/O attempt times out.Signed-off-by: Ed L. Cashin

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.Let it rip!
