Authentication application may be running and in the past tried to probe driver (app_start) but was unsuccessful. This could be due to the bsg layer not being ready to service the request. On a successful link up, driver will use the netlink Link Up event to notify the app to retry the app_start call. In another case, app does not poll for new NPIV host. This link up event would notify app of the presence of a new SCSI host.

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.
