Upcoming release

v16.08: iSCSI target, NVMf maturity
|

----------------

-----------------------------------
|
||||||
|
This release adds a userspace iSCSI target. The iSCSI target is capable of exporting
|
||||||
|
NVMe devices over a network using the iSCSI protocol. The application is located
|
||||||
|
in app/iscsi_tgt and a documented configuration file can be found at etc/spdk/spdk.conf.in.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- NVMe
|
This release also significantly improves the existing NVMe over Fabrics target.
|
||||||
- The Weighted Round Robin arbitration method is now supported. This allows
|
|
||||||
the user to specify different priorities on a per-I/O-queue basis. To
|
|
||||||
enable WRR, set the `arb_mechanism` field during `spdk_nvme_probe()`.
|
|
||||||
- A simplified "Hello World" example was added to show the proper way to use
|
|
||||||
the NVMe library API; see `examples/nvme/hello_world/hello_world.c`.

- Global options to control max queue depth, number of queues, max I/O

size, and max in-capsule data size were added.

- The Nvme section was removed. Now a list of devices is specified by

bus/device/function directly in the Subsystem section.

- Subsystems now have a Mode, which can be Direct or Virtual. This is an attempt

to future-proof the interface, so the only mode supported by this release

is "Direct".
