Subject: Re: [PATCH 04/10] AOE: use rcu to find network device
I will be testing the patch below on Monday. It is based on Stephen
Hemminger's starter patch (Thanks!). It adds handling for the case
where all of the local network interfaces have become unusable. In
that case, sent packets and retransmitted packets are effectively
dropped, and the driver's handling of ethernet's unreliability takes
care of things as usual. If a local interface becomes usable in time
no I/O will fail.
After testing I'll make a proper changelog entry. In brief this patch
allows the aoe driver to correctly take references on the net_device's
that it uses, handle their removal via a callback, and handle their
complete absence, too.
