The website links to stale deployed manuals, generated pages and a QLogic snapshot that is not in the repository. Several feature summaries also describe code that has since changed or disappeared. Commit7aade0a109("Makefile: Make the qla2x00t-32gbit driver the default QLogic FC driver") changed the default QLogic tree. Commit3a8d70b166("- Remove old scst_db stuff which no longer works with even procfs.") removed database-backed scstadmin configuration. Commitd84fc0783d("vdisk_fileio: Add support for asynchronous I/O processing") removed O_DIRECT as a fileio_tgt-only distinction. Linux commit 066465251303 ("tgt: removal") removed scsi_tgt in 2014, turning the website prediction into a completed historical event. Commit10ebf80e7a("Docs update") merged the SGV cache text into doc/scst_pg.sgml. Link website entries to maintained repository sources, use the real lowercase make rpm target, update the affected feature descriptions and remove references to files that are not tracked.
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-32gbit/, 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 the qla2x00t-32gbit directory. 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.
