I've just added a new fcoe target driver to tgt: http://stgt.berlios.de/ The driver runs in user space unlike your target mode driver (I just modified your FCoE code to run it in user space). The initiator driver succeeded to log in a target, see logical units, and perform some I/Os. It's still very unstable but it would be useful for FCoE developers. I would like to help you push the Open-FCoE initiator to mainline too. What are on your todo list and what you guys working on now? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
