Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

Sometimes we like to upgrade our server without making all of our clients freak out and reconnect. This patch provides a way to specify a dead connection timeout to allow us to pause all requests and wait for new connections to be opened. With this in place I can take down the nbd server for less than the dead connection timeout time and bring it back up and everything resumes gracefully.
