From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Greetings James, Christoph, Hannes, and Co, Attached is the third RFC series for adding qla2xxx LLD target mode support into mainline v8.03.07.00 @ .39-rc1, along with the accompanying tcm_qla2xxx.ko fabric module cut against mainline target v4.0 infrastructure. This series has been broken up into reviewable sections and should be considered a 'for-40' item. Many thanks to Andrew Vasquez for his initial off-list review of RFC-v2. This updated series contains a number of cleanups + removal of unnecessary code recommended by Andrew for enabling target mode support, and other misc code maintainibility improvements. So at this point with the functioning code, we would like to come to a consensus with linux-scsi folks about how the explict qla2xxx target mode LLD and tcm_qla2xxx fabric module 'split' should look, and how it will be accepted into distros and maintained for mainline moving forward. The Qlogic folks (Madhu and Andrew) have expressed interest that they would like to eventually own maintainence for the target pieces inside of qla2xxx, but this currently ends up being decent chunk of code in qla_target.c that may otherwise better reside in tcm_qla2xxx code. So that said, I would really like to get opinions from Christoph, Hannes, and Mike about how the 'existing LLD / tcm_fabric.ko split' can best done for mainline, and some input from kernel distro folks would also be useful here. Comments here please upstream linux-scsi folks..? An overview of the current status, todo list, mini-howto and running layout from /sys/kernel/config/target/qla2xxx/ are available here: http://www.linux-iscsi.org/index.php/Qlogic http://www.linux-iscsi.org/wiki/QLogic/configFS The next major item will be proper target mode NPIV support for >= 24xx series adapters using the included qla2xxx_npiv fabric skeleton, and which will be enabled in the next round of review in RFC-v4.
