<p class="MsoNormal">A blueprint around this would be appreciated. I have had similar<br>
thoughts around this myself, that these should be options for the LVM<br>
iSCSI driver rather than different drivers.<br>
<br>
These options also mirror how we can choose between tgt/iet/lio in the<br>
LVM driver today. I've been assuming that RDMA support will be added to<br>
the LIO driver there at some point, and this seems like a nice way to<br>
enable that.<o:p></o:p></p>
