Hi Roland,

In his role as SRP maintainer Dave Dillow had acked a few SRP initiator
patches three weeks ago (see also
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.scsi/86532/focus=87013). As far as I
can see these patches are not yet in your for-next branch ? Do you see
any chance to get these included in kernel 3.14 ?

Thanks,

Bart.
