Target driver for Emulex lpfc FC/FCoE adapters
The ocs_fc_scst target driver for Emulex lpfc FC/FCoE adapters is developed by the Emulex team and is available at the Emulex OneCore SDK developer site. Register for free at the Developer Portal Access page to get the source code and documentation. The Emulex OneCore SDK is built around the Emulex SLI-4 (Service Level Interface) API and is compatible with Emulex 16 Gb/s Fibre Channel HBAs (LPe16000 series) and Ethernet based target mode FCoE UCNAs (OCe11102-F series).
The ocs_fc_scst driver allows for lpfc adapters to be placed in initiator and/or target mode. The driver effectively maps SCST to the Emulex SLI-4 interface allowing a simple transition to Emulex 16Gb/s fibre channel technology for existing or new SCST users. NPIV is also supported, allowing virtual ports to be created with individual SCST target instances bound to them.
Documented for use with RHEL/Centos 6.x based distributions, ocs_fc_scst works with the stable SCST 2.2.1 as well as the development versions of 2.2.x and 3.0.x.
Please note that the drivers on SourceForge Emulex Drivers are now very old, not maintained and so are not recommended for new designs.
