iSCSI interface binding support (bz #500273) Notes: * Requires changes in dracut: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=797158 and further in iscsi-initiator-utils, fresh build: https://brewweb.devel.redhat.com/taskinfo?taskID=4085771 New parameters passed to dracut are described in commit message. * support for GUI, TUI, and kickstart (iscsi --iface option) * All devices must be either bound or using default. More fine-grained implementation would require deeper and invasive changes in GUI and libiscsi. Moreover, combining binding and default doesn't seem as useful or legitmate use case. * Discovery is done for all active interfaces. If user wants to activate additional interface in GUI (activating all needed interfaces in kickstart using network --activate is expected/recommended) and access a target via added interface it must be done before first login to a node of given target. We don't allow re-discovery of targets with nodes logged in as it can corrupt their authentication info. To offer activating of additional devices in GUI "Configure Network" button is added to Add Advanced Target dialog. It just runs nm-c-e as in hostname screen so user has to check Connect Automatically to activate the device (document). * No iBFT support yet. We need to figure out what to pass to dracut and whether dracut can handle it. I have quite simple patch to support iBFT in anaconda ready. 6.4 stuff? * I may squash some of the patches before pushing, I am leaving them split for review.
