[PATCH] fix aoe without scatter-gather [Bug 7662]

2006-12-22T16:55:49+00:00

Fix a bug that only appears when AoE goes over a network card that does not
support scatter-gather.  The headers in the linear part of the skb appeared
to be larger than they really were, resulting in data that was offset by 24
bytes.

This patch eliminates the offset data on cards that don't support
scatter-gather or have had scatter-gather turned off.  There remains an
unrelated issue that I'll address in a separate email.

Fixes bugzilla #7662

[PATCH] slab: remove kmem_cache_t

2006-12-07T16:39:25+00:00

Replace all uses of kmem_cache_t with struct kmem_cache.

The patch was generated using the following script:

	#!/bin/sh
	#
	# Replace one string by another in all the kernel sources.
	#

	set -e

	for file in `find * -name "*.c" -o -name "*.h"|xargs grep -l $1`; do
		quilt add $file
		sed -e "1,\$s/$1/$2/g" $file >/tmp/$$
		mv /tmp/$$ $file
		quilt refresh
	done

The script was run like this

	sh replace kmem_cache_t "struct kmem_cache"

aoe: fix sysfs_create_file warnings

2006-10-18T19:53:51+00:00

Moved the attributes into a group, making the compiler be quiet about
ignoring the return value of the file create calls.  This also also
fixed a bug when removing the files, which were not symlinks.

2006-10-18T19:53:51+00:00

This patch addresses the concern that the aoe driver should
not introduce unecessary conventions that must be learned by
the reader.  It reverts patch 6.

aoe: module parameter for device timeout

2006-10-18T19:53:50+00:00

The aoe_deadsecs module parameter sets the number of seconds that
elapse before a nonresponsive AoE device is marked as dead.

This is runtime settable in sysfs or settable with a module load or
kernel boot parameter.
