The patch titled Subject: aoe: do revalidation steps in order has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was aoe-do-revalidation-steps-in-order.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Ed Cashin <ecashin@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: aoe: do revalidation steps in order The discovery process begins with an optional AoE config query command and an AoE config query response. Normally when an aoe device is already open, the config query response does not trigger an ATA identify device command to be sent out, since the response contains storage capacity information that, if changed, could surprise the user of the device. The userland "aoe-revalidate" tool uses a character device to trigger an AoE config query for a particular AoE storage target and an ATA device identify command, even when the device is open. This change causes the config query to go out first, reflecting the normal discovery sequence. The responses could come back in any order, so this change is fairly cosmetic.
