I think the iscsi userspace common code should be fixed to handle that case. If we really need a dummy handle it could at least be a pipe or something else that doesn't require writing a new stub. (Sorry for beeing so vague, it's been a while I looked at the iscsi code last) _______________________________________________ openib-general mailing list [email protected] http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general To unsubscribe, please visit http://openib.org/mailman/listinfo/openib-general
