Hi,

is there any virtio-scsi developer here?

I take a look at the tcm_vhost module of kernel 3.7 and want to compile it as built-in.

However, CONFIG_TCM_VHOST only allows user to build as module.

I wonder why this restriction exists? thx a lot.

Hi Ching,
I'm probably the one who added that restriction.  I think the target
core loaded fabric modules explicitly when the tcm_vhost code was
written and it was not possible to build it into the kernel.

Perhaps that has changed.  The correct mailing list for drivers/target/
discussion is target-devel@vger.kernel.org.
