Some FC adapters from Marvell offer the ability to encrypt data in flight (EDIF). This feature requires an application to act as an authenticator. There is no FC switch scan service that can indicate whether a device is secure or non-secure. In order to detect whether the remote port supports encrypted operation, driver must first do a PLOGI with the remote device. On completion of the PLOGI, driver will query firmware to see if the device supports secure login. To do that, driver + firmware must advertise the security bit via PLOGI's service parameter. The remote device shall respond using the same service parameter whether it supports it or not.

Overview
This is the source code repository of the SCST project. SCST is a collection of Linux kernel drivers that implement SCSI target functionality. The SCST project includes:
- The SCST core in the scst/ subdirectory.
- A tool for loading, saving and modifying the SCST configuration in directory scstadmin/.
- Several SCSI target drivers in the directories iscsi-scst/, qla2x00t/, srpt/, scst_local/ and fcst/.
- User space programs in the usr/ subdirectory, e.g. fileio_tgt.
- Various documentation in the doc/ subdirectory.
Instructions for building and installing SCST are available in the INSTALL.md file.
QLogic target driver
Two QLogic target drivers are included in the SCST project.
The default driver is located in qla2x00t-32gbit directory and it supports up to 32 Gb/s FC. It is the newer one.
May anyone wish to switch back to the older driver that only supported up to
16 Gb/s adapters, it is located in qla2x00t directory. To make use of the
older driver build scst with environment variable QLA_32GBIT=no set.
