Hello,

This patch adds exhaustive support for handling SPEC_I_PT=1 processing of fabric dependent
TransportIDs in PROUT SA REGISTER ops containing SCSI Initiator port/device identifiers as
defined by spc4r17.

[snip]

Here is what it looks like in action doing a PROUT SA REGISTER with SPEC_I_PT: from a
local initiator port (debian) for a remote initiator port (opensuse) using sg_persist
from an Open-iSCSI Initiator:

	initiator# sg_persist -vvv --out --device /dev/sde --register --param-rk=0 --param-sark=0x1234ffff -T 5 -X  05,0,33,32,69,71,6E,2E,31,39,39,36,2D,30,34,2E,64,65,2E,73,75,73,65,3A,30,31,3A,31,36,36,31,66,39,65,65,37,62,35,00
	number of tranport-ids decoded from command line (or stdin): 1
	  Decode given transport-ids:
	      Transport Id of initiator:

The additional length field in the TransportID above is a bit
strange.vRefer to spc4r20.pdf table 406 on page 482. I would
interpretvthe above additional length as 3332h which is
possible but notvprobable. Looking at the data I think the
additional lengthvshould be 24h (22h round up to 24h because
of the "multiplevof 4" rule).

Looks like sg_persist needs a better way of representing
TransportIDs that contain iSCSI names. Possibilities might be:
  ... -X 05,0,0,24,iqn.1996-04.de.suse:01:1661f9ee7b5
or
  ... -X 05,0,iqn.1996-04.de.suse:01:1661f9ee7b5

Both variants could trigger on "iqn" (is "IQN" allowable)?
In the latter case sg_persist could work out the iSCSI name
length, round it up if necessary and insert it in the
transportID.
