List, For those interested, At https://github.com/sahlberg/libiscsi there is now a package for iscsi clientside library and a couple of useful utilities, like iscsi-ls and iscsi-inq. The library provides a fully async and nonblocking api. For convenience, it also provides a synchronous interface for simpler applications. ISCSI URLs are specified as : iscsi://[<username>[%<password>]@]<host>[:<port>]/<target-iqn>/<lun> Example: iscsi://10.1.1.27:3260/iqn.ronnie.test/2 iscsi://ronnie%secret@xxxxxxxxx/iqn.ronnie.test/3 CHAP is supported. (unidirectional only) Header digest is supported. (we offer None,CRC32C and accept/use whatever the target picks) Target initiated NOPs are not yet implemented, but should be trivial to add if someone needs them. I have used this library to successfully convert QEMU, SG3-UTILS and MTX to access iscsi devices with great success. So the API is reasonably proven to work/integrate with other utilities. It is still early and would need a lot of enhancements. For example the SCSI marshalling/unmarshalling could definitely be expanded to cover a whole lot more SCSI commands and DATA blobs. Please feel free to use, enhance and contribute.
