MaxCmdSN.

Or to put it another way: what is preventing iscsi_data_xmit() from
completely draining both conn->cmdqueue + conn->requeue, even when the
CmdSN window has potentially been closed again..?

Guys,

Note that the iser initiator transport uses the pass-through command submission mode of libiscsi, that is
iscsi_conn_queue_work isn't called from queuecommand at all.

This is b/c we call iscsi_host_allocwith xmit_can_sleep = 0. Hence no workqueue is used for the command processing/submission over the wire, just a call toiscsi_prep_scsi_cmd_pdu and following that to iser's xmit_task callbackwhich isiscsi_iser_task_xmit that calls iser_send_command, etc.

Mike, Nic is not using the new locking framework patches for libiscsi, as you know they are not upstream
yet...

Or.
