No, the interface I speak of is most definately not specific to iSCSI
authentication payloads.
What I meant here is that iscsi-target should be sending RFC-3720
optional authentication type specific key=value payloads into userspace
daemon(s) using some form of acceptable mainline kernel <-> user
interface in mainline kernel code.
This interface also really needs to be 64-bit kernel / 32-bit user safe
as well.
