I just checked in a first version of iSCSI Extensions for RDMA Protocol (ISER) initiator under infiniband/ulp/iser. This implements the ISER datamover, a transport layer alternative to TCP/IP usable by iSCSI. This ISER transport has been tested with the open-iscsi opensource project, and against the Voltaire Fibre-Channel Router (FCR) and Voltaire's Native-IB storage kit.
All the iSCSI features including device management are available seamlessly with the iSCSI/ISER initiator. ISER simply puts iSCSI on steroids. The ISER implementation makes use of the openIB/kDAPL. Please note that several kDAPL patches that were submitted to the list are necessary for this implementation to work.
