I do not think we are going to be able to upgrade to the upstream class because the LLD maintainers are happy where they are, we have some KABI issues, and the dm-multipath devs will not be happy. Created attachment 119447 [details]
add host port_id
We could try this patch. It backports the the shost port_id (lpfc actually has
this value on the scsi_host attrs today) and adds support for lpfc and qla2xxx.
The KABI police may have problems with it becuase of the fc_function_template
additions and we may have to fall back to just adding the port_id to qlogics
scsi host attrs. If this is ok with you jejb then I will send it off internally
to see if it passes the review.
