iSER initiator FreeBSD support [RFC]

[Sagi Grimberg]

Hi All,

We have updated our iser github repository [1] with the latest iser
driver (beta level) additional support and fixes:
- Full Rebase on top of 11-current (r284921)
- Discovery (over iser) support
- Added spec compliance for iser assisted Login message
- HA support (automatic reconnects, traffic failover)
- Split iser from iscsi module (build as a separate module with
dependancy on iscsi)
- Several stability fixes

The current version of the iser driver is constantly tested in our
nightly regression systems and seems to pass several tests:
- Traffic tests
- Login/logout: basic functionality, non-existent target error flows, stress
- Compliance/FS: diskinfo, newfs, iozone
- HA: Session recovery, IO with port toggling
- Module load/unload

We would like to learn about other open-source test suites that we can
run in our labs.

Edward,
We feel that the code is ready for inclusion. Would you mind reviewing
our code and provide feedback?

This is pretty cool. One thing is missing on the list is libiscsi
which has pretty comprehensive compliance test. You can find source
here: https://github.com/sahlberg/libiscsi, and iscsi-test-cu tool
which generates XML output for integration with Jenkins. fio for
performance or verification is good too an has a bit better output
format then iozone.
