      [SCSI] target: Add LIO target core v4.0.0-rc6 · c66ac9db
      Nicholas Bellinger 提交于
      LIO target is a full featured in-kernel target framework with the
      following feature set:
      
      High-performance, non-blocking, multithreaded architecture with SIMD
      support.
      
      Advanced SCSI feature set:
      
          * Persistent Reservations (PRs)
          * Asymmetric Logical Unit Assignment (ALUA)
          * Protocol and intra-nexus multiplexing, load-balancing and failover (MC/S)
          * Full Error Recovery (ERL=0,1,2)
          * Active/active task migration and session continuation (ERL=2)
          * Thin LUN provisioning (UNMAP and WRITE_SAMExx)
      
      Multiprotocol target plugins
      
      Storage media independence:
      
          * Virtualization of all storage media; transparent mapping of IO to LUNs
          * No hard limits on number of LUNs per Target; maximum LUN size ~750 TB
          * Backstores: SATA, SAS, SCSI, BluRay, DVD, FLASH, USB, ramdisk, etc.
      
      Standards compliance:
      
          * Full compliance with IETF (RFC 3720)
          * Full implementation of SPC-4 PRs and ALUA
      
      Significant code cleanups done by Christoph Hellwig.

       Randy Dunlap and Dan Carpenter.]
