(protocol) FIP. This protocol will be exercised on

Add support to specifically print FIP related
debug messages.
Replace existing definitions to handle new
data structures.
Clean up old and obsolete definitions.

Aren't you getting a bit overboard here?

I am _positive_ that the original fnic driver _did_ do FIP.
What happened to that?
Why can't you just use that implementation?

And if you can't use that implementation, shouldn't this rather be
a new driver instead of replacing most if not all functionality of
the original fnic driver?

Cheers,
