Of course I'm aware of that.. I'm the one who pushed it there in the first place :)
But it was not the best way to handle this.. I think that the right/better approach is as suggested.
I'm planning to remove the existing ISERDriver code, this will eliminate significant code and class duplication, and will work with all the iSCSI vendors who supports both tcp and rdma without the need to modify their plug-in drivers.

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

I'm open to improving this, but I am curious you know there's an ISER subclass in iscsi for Cinder currently right?
