The Linux-iSCSI.org target module is a full featured in-kernel
software implementation of iSCSI target mode (RFC-3720) for the
current WIP mainline target v4.1 infrastructure code for the v3.1
kernel.  More information can be found here:

http://linux-iscsi.org/wiki/ISCSI

This includes support for:

   * RFC-3720 defined request / response state machines and support for
     all defined iSCSI operation codes from Section 10.2.1.2 using libiscsi
     include/scsi/iscsi_proto.h PDU definitions
   * Target v4.1 compatible control plane using the generic layout in
     target_core_fabric_configfs.c and fabric dependent attributes
     within /sys/kernel/config/target/iscsi/ subdirectories.
   * Target v4.1 compatible iSCSI statistics based on RFC-4544 (iSCSI MIBS)
   * Support for IPv6 and IPv4 network portals in M:N mapping to TPGs
   * iSCSI Error Recovery Hierarchy support
   * Per iSCSI connection RX/TX thread pair scheduling affinity
   * crc32c + crc32c_intel SSEv4 instruction offload support using libcrypto
   * CHAP Authentication support using libcrypto
   * Conversion to use internal SGl allocation with iscsit_alloc_buffs() ->
     transport_generic_map_mem_to_cmd()

(nab: Fix iscsi_proto.h struct scsi_lun usage from linux-next in commit:
      iscsi: Use struct scsi_lun in iscsi structs instead of u8[8])
(nab: Fix 32-bit compile warnings)
