Subject: [net-next-2.6 04/14] net: add ndo_fcoe_ddp_target() to support FCoE DDP in target mode
Date: Mon,  7 Mar 2011 18:24:58 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1299551108-23663-5-git-send-email-jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1299551108-23663-1-git-send-email-jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>

From: Yi Zou <yi.zou@intel.com>

The Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) Direct Data Placement (DDP) can also be
used for FCoE target, where the DDP used for read I/O on an initiator can be
used on an FCoE target to speed up the write I/O to the target from the initiator.
The added ndo_fcoe_ddp_target() works in the similar way as the existing
ndo_fcoe_ddp_setup() to allow the underlying hardware set up the DDP context
accordingly when it gets called from the FCoE target implementation on top
the existing Open-FCoE fcoe/libfc protocol stack so without losing the ability
to provide DDP for read I/O as an initiator, it can also provide DDP offload
to the write I/O coming from the initiator as a target.
