Right now the iscsi_endpoint is only linked to a connection once that
connection has been established.  For net namespace filtering of the
sysfs objects, associate an endpoint with the host that it was
allocated for when it is created.

Umm... doesn't this change the sysfs layout?
IE won't the endpoint node be moved under the Scsi_Host directory?

But even if it does: do we care?

No, it’s still /sys/class/iscsi_endpoint, since the dev.class hasn’t changed.

It does, but it shouldn't matter. The Open-iSCSI tools look under the
subsystem, not the device path. Being a child of the host makes more
sense then being a floating virtual device.

I just re-tested with bnx2i to make sure moving an endpoint devpath in
sysfs didn't break anything.

I started trying[1] to look at iSER, and I think this is a problem.
iSER is the only iSCSI driver that uses endpoint objects, but does not
require then to be bound to a host.  That means that
iscsi_iser_ep_connect can be called with a null shost.

So this fails, and not in a new namespace.
It just breaks iSER entirely.

I think we need to preserve support for the iscsi_endpoint device
having a virtual device path for iSER.

Also, enabling net namespace support for iSER might require the ability
to create an endpoint directly in a namespace instead of on a host.
Kind of like the create_session discussion for iscsi_tcp.

- Chris

[1] I say trying, becuase before going and borrowing an RDMA setup I
thought I'd give the kernel target and either siw or rxe a try. The
isert module seems to have issues with siw, and I think maybe any iWARP,
where setting enable_iser on a port will try and re-use the TCP port
number and fail due to it being in use.  With rxe my host failed, but
that's becuase of this create_endpoint issue.
