Why shouldn't there be a $DRIVERFS/net/ipv4@10.42.135.99/... style hookup
for iSCSI devices?  Using whatever physical addressing the kernel uses
there, which I assume wouldn't necessarily be restricted to ipv4.

iSCSI devices are uniqely identified by its name. An iSCSI device can be
reachable at multiple ip numbers or they can even change dynamically.

Roman,
Trying to clear up the nomenclature here, according to SAM-2
( www.10.org ) target ports have mandatory "identifiers"
and optional "names". The WWUI in iSCSI is part of the
target _identifier_. SAM-2 is pretty vague about "names"
but it does note that for a logical unit, its _name_
may be reported in the Device Identification VPD page in
an INQUIRY.
