      Firmware: add iSCSI iBFT Support · 138fe4e0
      Konrad Rzeszutek 提交于
      Add /sysfs/firmware/ibft/[initiator|targetX|ethernetX] directories along with
      text properties which export the the iSCSI Boot Firmware Table (iBFT)
      structure.
      
      What is iSCSI Boot Firmware Table?  It is a mechanism for the iSCSI tools to
      extract from the machine NICs the iSCSI connection information so that they
      can automagically mount the iSCSI share/target.  Currently the iSCSI
      information is hard-coded in the initrd.  The /sysfs entries are read-only
      one-name-and-value fields.
      
      The usual set of data exposed is:
      
      # for a in `find /sys/firmware/ibft/ -type f -print`; do  echo -n "$a: ";  cat $a; done
      /sys/firmware/ibft/target0/target-name: iqn.2007.com.intel-sbx44:storage-10gb
