* doc: fix broken referencesPaul Bolle2011-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | There are numerous broken references to Documentation files (in other Documentation files, in comments, etc.). These broken references are caused by typo's in the references, and by renames or removals of the Documentation files. Some broken references are simply odd. Fix these broken references, sometimes by dropping the irrelevant text they were part of. Signed-off-by: Paul Bolle <pebolle@tiscali.nl> Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>

* Documentation: update broken web addresses.Justin P. Mattock2010-08-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/* Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult, the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated. Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users. Signed-off-by: Justin P.

* typo fixesMatt LaPlante2007-10-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | Most of these fixes were already submitted for old kernel versions, and were approved, but for some reason they never made it into the releases. Because this is a consolidation of a couple old missed patches, it touches both Kconfigs and documentation texts.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!

	  A cluster filesystem.

	  Allows a cluster of computers to simultaneously use a block device
	  that is shared between them (with FC, iSCSI, NBD, etc...).  GFS reads
	  and writes to the block device like a local filesystem, but also uses
	  a lock module to allow the computers coordinate their I/O so
	  filesystem consistency is maintained.  One of the nifty features of
	  GFS is perfect consistency -- changes made to the filesystem on one
	  machine show up immediately on all other machines in the cluster.

	  To use the GFS2 filesystem in a cluster, you will need to enable
	  the locking module below. Documentation and utilities for GFS2 can
	  be found here: http://sources.redhat.com/cluster

	  The "nolock" lock module is now built in to GFS2 by default. If
	  you want to use the DLM, be sure to enable HOTPLUG and IPv4/6
	  networking.

	bool "GFS2 DLM locking"
	depends on (GFS2_FS!=n) && NET && INET && (IPV6 || IPV6=n) && HOTPLUG
	help
	  Multiple node locking module for GFS2

	  Most users of GFS2 will require this. It provides the locking
	  interface between GFS2 and the DLM, which is required to use GFS2
	  in a cluster environment.
