QLogic target driver
====================
QLogic target driver in qla2x00t/ is the old one, forked from qla2xxx
from kernel 2.6.26. It is not maintained anymore and not built by
default by the common Makefile targets, like "all".
QLogic target driver qla2x00t is the old driver, forked from qla2xxx
several years ago. It is very stable, well tested and actively used in
many production setups. The ultimate goal is to have the mainstream
(git) QLogic target driver to be the main and the only QLogic target
driver, but, unfortunately, this driver not yet reached level of quality
and maturity of qla2x00t. We with QLogic are working toward it.
You can find the latest version of this driver in git://git.qlogic.com/scst-qla2xxx.git.
It is now maintained by QLogic, hence located in the QLogic's git.

its README or HOWTO. Run either "make all" to build the SCST core and

You can still build the old driver using qla_old* root Makefile targets.
