This is only about the structures and functionality involved in
maintaining the
iSCSI session, the SCSI host along with it's discovered targets
and devices has
no association with network namespaces.

These patches are functional, but not complete.  There's no
isolation enforced
in the kernel just yet, so it relies on well behaved userspace.  I
plan on
fixing that, but wanted some feedback on the idea and approach so
far.
Seems like a good direction, to me.

What would be the extent of the userspace (open-iscsi) changes
needed to go along with this?
What I would like to see is to split off iscsid to have one
instance/process per session.
With that we could trivially run open-iscsi in containers and
stufflike; currently it'll be hard as there really is only one
iscsid expected to be running in a system.

Cheers,

Hannes
