4.2.x kernels, x=2 currently, do not have: iscsi-target: Avoid OFMarker + IFMarker negotiation 673681cafa which I've submitted to stable on Oct 2 but hasn't made it in yet. Otherwise, LIO is broken when used with the MS iscsi initiator. Please apply this fix to Fedora kernels, hopefully it will show up in -stable soon as well.
actually x=3 but still, it's not in there.
This was added with the 4.2.4/4.2.5 kernels with commit b457470c65a41938a1b6be511020e9c7945886be Author: Justin M. Forbes <jforbes> Date: Thu Oct 15 09:44:35 2015 -0500 Fix for iscsi target issues (#rhbz 1271812)
I installed kernel-4.2.5-201.fc22.x86_64 as suggested from updates-testing and I still get the following errors: Nov 02 14:52:36 cartman systemd[1]: iscsid.service stopping timed out. Terminating.

(In reply to Andy Grover from comment #4) > iscsid is not involved with the issue in this BZ, please open a new BZ > against iscsi-initiator? Fedora 23 with the 4.2.3-300.fc23 kernel resolved the issue on several systems for me.
Great thanks! Closing.

Does this mean you don't intend to fix this issue for fc22?
No, it means this particular issue was fixed in F22 with the 4.2.5 kernel.
ok, got it. just got a bit confused because in Bug 1273252 that was closed as a dupe there was a report that 4.2.5 kernel in testing did not fix the issue.
There should be no differences in the kernel as far as iscsi is concerned for F22 and F23. F23 does have an updated iscsi-initiator-utils which may be required for recent kernels.
