If you see the above sendpage error on the target and only see a conn
error 1020 on the initiator side, then it might be the target got a
failure during a send operation and dropped the connection. 1020 on the
initiator side indicates the target dropped the tcp/ip connection.

Ok. It seems the connection was dropped and the initiator was able to
relogin and continue IO.

If the problem is the target dropping the connection because it could
not send IO, then I am not sure.

You might be sending more IO than the target can handle and in that case
you can lower the targets per session queue depth if LIO has a setting
like that. If not then on the initiator side you can lower it by setting
node.session.cmds_max lower. To set that either set it in iscsid.conf
then rediscover the target and relogin or run iscsiadm -m node -o update
to update it for specific targets already setup then relogin (probably
also want to set it in iscsid.conf for future targets/portals too if it
works).
