This looks great!  Supporting new target is definitely helpful to
Cinder. I can't wait to try it out.  And I'm wondering if you could
introduce a little bit more on LIO, like what's advantage compared to
TGT, IET.

One dumb question regarding to 'targetd' though, in its readme, it
claimed itself as 'pre-alpha', is it ready to use?
