Linux* Open-iSCSI Software Initiator

Edit Package open-iscsi

Open-iSCSI is a high-performance, transport independent, multi-platform
implementation of RFC3720 iSCSI.

Open-iSCSI is partitioned into user and kernel parts.

The kernel portion of Open-iSCSI is a from-scratch code licensed under
GPL. The kernel part implements iSCSI data path (that is, iSCSI Read
and iSCSI Write), and consists of two loadable modules: iscsi_if.ko and
iscsi_tcp.ko.

User space contains the entire control plane: configuration manager,
iSCSI Discovery, Login and Logout processing, connection-level error
processing, Nop-In and Nop-Out handling, and (in the future:) Text
processing, iSNS, SLP, Radius, etc.

The user space Open-iSCSI consists of a daemon process called iscsid,
and a management utility iscsiadm.

- Updated Factory to match latest upstream code base,
  including changse to open-iscsi and iscsiuio. These changes
  include bug fixes as well as systemd integration for
  open-iscsi.
- Added two not-yet-upstream patches for iscsiuio/systemd activation
  from Chris Leech (bnc#869567):
    iscsiuio-systemd-socket-activation-support.patch
    iscsiuio-systemd-unit-files.patch
  Updated spec file to handle install/package of new files.
- Added an upstream patch from Mike Christie (bnc#869356):
  iscsi-tools-set-non-negotiated-params-early

   iscsid: Fix handling of iscsi async events.
   When iscsi targets send 32 or more iscsi async event pdus the
   initiator will run out of memory for events and this message:
   BUG: iscsid: Can not allocate memory for receive context.
   will be logged non stop. iscsid will then not be able to
   complate any more requests because it is stuck in a endless loop
   printing that message.
   This fixes the problem by having iscsid handle an event after it
   has read it in from netlink or the mgmt ipc. Previously we would
   queue all events then handle them.
- Updated systemd unit files (bnc#847953)
- Split iscsiuio out as separate package
   (part of bnc#858972)
- Ported Hannes' open-isns changes fro SLE12, setting up
  open-isns as a separate sub-package and integrating it
  with open-iscsi (forwarded request 232234 from lee_duncan)
