List,

Slightly off-topic, but I think it is of interest to several on the list.


I just sent a patch to the KVM mailinglist that add a fully posix and
fully async initiator library.
Of immediate purpose to allow kvm-qemu to access TGTD exported LUNs
directly without having to go through open-iscsi
and making the devices visible to the host (which is VERY annoying).
But also to evolve to a full blown iscsi library.

Anyone interested in an iscsi client library and building applications
thereon are encouraged to view it and perhaps contribute.

The initiator is all in userspace, right? Is there any plans on supporting offload? Would you create some offloaded connection using a driver like bnx2i/cxgb3i/be2iscsi/qla4xxx then pass/get pdus through it?
