Hey Bart and Christoph, Bart, I noticed we basically had what you are requesting but Christoph had moved the id code from the fabric drivers to lio core in this commit: commit 2650d71e244fb3637b5f58a0080682a8bf9c7091 Author: Christoph Hellwig <hch@xxxxxx> Date: Fri May 1 17:47:58 2015 +0200 target: move transport ID handling to the core So what do you guys want to do here? Revert Christoph's patch and go back to that style or have lio core do the transport ID processing? > >> of that function is in source file scst/src/scst_targ.c: >> >> res = sess->tgt->tgtt->get_initiator_port_transport_id( >> sess->tgt, sess, &sess->transport_id); >> >> Thanks, >> >> Bart.-- >> To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe target-devel" in >> the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >> More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html >> > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe target-devel" in > the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html >
