Hi Mike,

Herein attached patches for having dhcp provisioning support in 
cxgb3i. I have added one new iscsi netlink message 
ISCSI_UEVENT_REQ_IPCONF. 
Is the idea to have iscsid/uip send down this msg?

Was it not possible to hook in more like how bnx2i does dhcp?
yep, idea is to have iscsid send down ISCSI_UEVENT_REQ_IPCONF msg. bnx2i 
approach in our case for at least T3 is not feasible.
I think adding DHCP in the kernel is getting a little crazy :) If we go 
down this path, I agree with the other person that stated it should at 
least be generic.
