Open-iscsi + xen + OpenSolaris
Fuzzy
I have been trying for about a week now, unsuccessfully, to make open-
iscsi login to a OpenSolaris iscsi target from within a xen guest. I
have tried doing this with a Ubuntu Fiesty guest, a Debian Etch guest,
and now finally a Ubuntu Gutsy guest. I have seen all 3 have this
kernel oops after discovery, while attempting login. Each guest I
have used the xen kernel that a normal install of the said distro/
version would normally use for it's guest. The OpenSolaris machine is
a Nevada 75 release exporting iscsi targets from zfs. After reading
this mailing list it seemed that my open-iscsi was too old, hence the
move to Gutsy. Please Advise as I am out of ideas at this point.

You're hitting the same BUG on all of the versions because iscsi is
reading in too much data from the TCP socket.
I'm not familiar enough with the iSCSI code to really tell you what's
gone wrong inside of there, but what kind of networking are you using
with Xen? If you're using bridged interfaces, I would think this
should work just fine.

You need to grab the open-iscsi tarball here
http://www.open-iscsi.org/bits/open-iscsi-2.0-865.15.tar.gz
and use the kernel modules from that tarball instead of the ones you are
using which look like they are from debian or xen.
Or if there is a kernel based on 2.6.23 from debian or xen, you should
use that.
In 2.6.22 and below there is bug where open-iscsi does not handle some
of the packets we got from open solaris correctly. It is not open
solaris's fault and was a driver bug.

Ross & Mike-
Yes it's a bridged networking environment. I'm going to try what Mike
suggested and I will report back. Thank you everyone for your
suggestions.
