These are set of patches for configuring network setting for iSCSI adapter (qla4xxx) that use private IP address. Please review proposal/implementation and let us know the feedback. iscsiadm part of proposal is submitted at open-iscsi group. http://groups.google.com/group/open-iscsi/browse_thread/thread/2924e8d871233436 1. Current status: Using iscsiadm one cannot do any network configuration for qla4xxx adapters. However an iface is created for the qla4xxx ports using the hwaddress. \# ls /etc/iscsi/ifaces/ iface.example iface0 qla4xxx.00:0e:1e:04:8b:2a qla4xxx.00:0e:1e:04:8b:2e. This allows user to issue sendtargets via the qla4xxx iscsi offload. 2. Current Proposal: Current proposal is to allow iscsiadm to configure the network settings for qla4xxx ports. This implementation is based on discussions at http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=127066184916180&w=2 http://groups.google.com/group/open-iscsi/browse_thread/thread/d8e8c2df71c95d69/8f731d95d46141a0?lnk=gst&q=iscsi+hba# Lalit Chandivade (2): [RFC] iscsi_transport: add set_net_config [RFC] qla4xxx: add support for set_net_config Vikas Chaudhary (3): qla4xxx: Added new "struct ipaddress_config" [RFC] iscsi_transport: show network configuration in sysfs [RFC] qla4xxx: added support to show multiple iface in sysfs drivers/scsi/qla4xxx/ql4_def.h | 50 +++-- drivers/scsi/qla4xxx/ql4_fw.h | 102 +++++++++ drivers/scsi/qla4xxx/ql4_glbl.h | 13 +- drivers/scsi/qla4xxx/ql4_init.c | 51 +++-- drivers/scsi/qla4xxx/ql4_mbx.c | 188 +++++++++++++--- drivers/scsi/qla4xxx/ql4_os.c | 422 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c | 246 ++++++++++++++++++++- include/scsi/iscsi_if.h | 53 +++++ include/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.h | 25 ++ 9 files changed, 1073 insertions(+), 77 deletions(-) Thanks, Vikas.
