• ba4ee30c6   ibft: separate ibft parsing from sysfs interface ... Browse Code »

  Not all iscsi drivers support ibft. For drivers like be2iscsi
  that do not but are bootable through a vendor firmware specific
  format/process this patch moves the sysfs interface from the ibft code
  to a lib module. This then allows userspace tools to search for iscsi boot
  info in a common place and in a common format.

  ibft iscsi boot info is exported in the same place as it was
  before: /sys/firmware/ibft.

  vendor/fw boot info gets export in /sys/firmware/iscsi_bootX, where X is the
  scsi host number of the HBA. Underneath these parent dirs, the
  target, ethernet, and initiator dirs are the same as they were before.
