Hello Ming,

Hi Bart,


Please do not use the "fabric_" prefix in the data structure member name.
Since this structure member exists inside the target_core_fabric_ops data
structure it is already clear that it refers to target code and it is not
needed to use the "fabric_" prefix. How about using the name "scsi_protocol"
instead ?

How about "fabric_protocol"? I'm thinking maybe in the future LIO will support
non-scsi protocol also, for example, NVME?

Sorry but I'm not convinced that it would be a good idea to add support for non-SCSI protocols to LIO. If NVMe-over-fabric support has to be added upstream it is probably a better idea to create a separate target project for NVMe-over-fabric.

Bart.
