aoe: update documentation with new URL and VM settings reference

2012-10-05T18:05:28Z

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.

Documentation: remove references to /etc/modprobe.conf

2012-03-30T23:03:15Z

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.

Documentation: update broken web addresses.

2010-08-04T13:21:40Z

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became a bit difficult, the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated.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.

aoe: user can ask driver to forget previously detected devices

2008-02-08T17:22:31Z

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.
