Hi Linus, Here is the PULL request for the initial merge of tcm_vhost based on RFC-v5 code with MST's ACK appended to the initial merge commit. As promised, the commit is available from two different branches for you to consider merging as for-3.6 code. The 'for-next-merge' branch based on mainline commit 7409a6657ae using 3.5-rc2 code contains two duplicates of pre-merge vhost patch dependencies that have already been merged into mainline via net-next. This commit is also in the 07302012 -next patchset, and available here: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending.git for-next-merge Or the 'for-linus' branch containing an -rc0 head @ commit bdc0077af57: Merge tag 'scsi-misc' of git://git.kernel.org/../jejb/scsi) rebased up to the last commit in scsi-misc required for virtio-scsi client LLD scanning logic to function properly with tcm_vhost fabric ports, is available here: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending.git for-linus Both branches have gotten recent testing and have been running over-night small block random I/O tests connected to raw block flash backends. The same diffstat below will result from pulling either branch. Also, the incremental patch to address MST's last round of post-merge comments has been sent to the lists for feedback this afternoon. This will be included into the usual post -rc1 PULL via 3.6-rc-fixes, along with any other bits that end up changing post-merge. Please let us know if you have any concerns.
