This device driver provides the SCSI target side of the "virtual
SCSI" on IBM Power5 systems. The initiator side has been in mainline
for a while now (drivers/scsi/ibmvscsi/ibmvscsi.c.) Targets already
exist for AIX and OS/400.
Please try to integrate that with the generic scsi target framework at
http://developer.berlios.de/projects/stgt/.
There hasn't been a lot of forward progress on stgt in over a year, and
there were some issues (lack of scatterlist support, synchronous and
serial command execution) that were an issue when last I looked.
stgt is not scst. It is new. And yes we will have proper support for
sccatterlists. We need something similar to what sg and st need so I
plan on using the block layer functions that are implemented for those
upper layer drivers for stgt. If you want to help out and implement that
then that would be good. We are also very early in our design so all
comments are welcome.
