Hi Linus, Andrew and James,
There is a tradition in the Linux kernel community of only accepting kernel code upstream after all major outstanding issues have been resolved. Something that I consider as a major outstanding issue and that does not only affect the iSCSI target code but also the target core is that support for hot-pluggable HCAs is missing. This is something I have reported more than once in the past -- see e.g. http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg50248.html. As far as I know nobody is working on this. So I'm wondering whether that has perhaps been overlooked when the iSCSI target code was pulled ?
Bart.
