If my dlopen() suggestion works, in that it notices the lack of
libibverbs at runtime, this would work fine with RPMs:
tgt : requires whatever it needs for tcp; provides /usr/sbin/tgtd
tgt-rdma : requires tgt, ibverbs, rdmacm; provides libtgt-rdma.so
Base tgtd will always go looking for libtgt-rdma.so. If it is successful, it configures up the iSER interface, else it quietly does only iSCSI on TCP.
Yes, sounds like having two packages would work in the sense that a user
can always install the base package and would be able to install the
rdma package if they have the IB stack installed.
I wonder if/how the calls from tgt to tgt-rdma can be implemented
without the typedefs and device structure holding pointers to function
which you didn't like in Doron's patch. If this can't be avoided also in
your approach, I don't see why its more elegant.
Or.
