[PATCH 0/3] add open iscsi netlink interface to iscsi transport class

From: Mike Christie
Date: Wed May 04 2005 - 21:55:46 EST


The following patches add the linux-iscsi-5.X/open-iscsi project's netlink interface to the iscsi transport class since the groups doing iSCSI over TCP (this module is completed now and will be submitted in a seperate mail), iSCSI over SCTP and iSER are using it for a common interface and to share code.

The answers to why netlink and why push so much to userspace can be found here http://open-iscsi.org/.

Patches

1. add-iscsi-netlink-def.patch - include/linux/netlink.h changes (added new protocol NETLINK_ISCSI)

2. common-iscsi-headers.patch - Common header files:
- iscsi_if.h (user/kernel #defines);
- iscsi_proto.h (RFC3720 #defines and types);
- iscsi_ifev.h (user/kernel events).

3. integrate-iscsi-netlink.patch - incorporate the open-iscsi/linux-iscsi netlink interface into the iscsi transport class.


Thanks,

Linux-iscsi Team
