iscsi tools: use open-isns services
This replaces the native isns code with open-isns's libisns. I included the open-isns code in the open-iscsi tarball to make distribution easier since some distros use different isns clients and may not want to carry open-isns. This is based on open-isns commit 5e09f36d3446e41de0b8361601ffec4cd140d513. Changes in iSNS behavior/use: - To do discovery you must pass the ip and optionally the port to iscsiadm: iscsiadm -m discovery -t st -p 10.15.0.9 This command accepts the same ops as sendtargets so you can add/remove/update the node records that are created. It also supports ifaces properly now. - isns.address and isns.port in iscsid.conf are no longer used. - ESI is temporarily not supported. This will be fixed in the next patch when SCNs support is added. - The iscsiadm isns discovery command is not marked as stable. Signed-off-by: Mike Christie <michaelc@cs.wisc.edu>
