All of these patches in for-38-rc3 and for-jejb branches have already been sent out to linux-scsi incrementally when they where committed into LIO upstream code.

Yes sorry, I should have been more specific here wrt to my scsi-post-merge-2.6.git branches: *) for-38-rc3: rebased to linus .38-rc2 tag *) for-jejb: based on jejb scsi-post-merge-2.6.git/master @ .37-FINAL from commit 7d2087a1820b (initial LIO target core v4.0.0-rc6 commit) Both are now in sync with the upstream LIO tree v4.0.0-rc7 bugfixes, and I have been keeping 'for-jejb' as convience for you against your initial target merge. --nab -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
