Version 4: - Added transport switch 'use_boot_info' to enable the overriding of the session's iface param with the boot_info or not. This is only populated for iscsi_tcp and bnx2i so far.
Version 3: - Added support for ISCSI_LLD_ROOT support as well - Removed the 'boot_initiator' param because its not useful - Added the 'boot_root' param to hold the 'ibft' or 'iscsi_root'N name to support non-ibft sessions - Moved the boot_nic net param extraction out of the iscsi_sysfs_read_iface routine because it can affect iscsiadm iface config printouts Version 2: - Added boot_initiator to hold the ibft initiator name - Added boot_targetN to hold the corresponding ibft target name - Moved the boot_nic net param extraction to the iscsi_sysfs_read_iface routine - Added extra check before eluding to use the boot_nic info For the case when iscsid is invoked for the first time after pivot root during iSCSI boot, the boot connection would fail to re-connect if the ibft/iscsi_boot sysfs entry contains tagged vlan. The problem was caused by the lack of such info in the iscsi_session sysfs for sync_session to inherit from. The enclosed patchset does the following: 1. Extract and save the ibft->ethernetN name to the boot_context->boot_nic 2. Pass the boot_nic info to be saved to the sessionN sysfs 3. Extract the sessionN boot_nic sysfs info and retrieve the corresponding net params This 'boot_nic' kernel session sysfs entry will only be present for ibft boot. Corresponding kernel drivers will have to add the ISCSI_PARAM_BOOT_NIC attribute to its attr_is_visible table. The last patch provides the fix for the unconditional overwrite of the iface struct even after the ibft net info was already extracted. Please review. Thanks.
