For the kernel code you need to get the scsi-misc tree (see
kernel.org/git for details). For the userspace tools you need the
open-iscsi.org svn tree with this patch

http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~michaelc/iscsi/open-iscsi/linux-scsi/tmp-qla4xxx-hook-into-userpace3.patch

For the userspace tools, we do not have the init scripts finished up so
you have to build the svn userspace tools, install them, then run

iscsid and iscsiadm by hand.

The iscsiadm command to run with qla4xxx is:

iscsiadm -m discovery -t st -a $host_no_of_qla4xxx_card -p
$discovery_address:$portal
-
: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in
the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
