> currently supported. I thought instead of spamming the kernel lists
> with 1K LOC of python for actually generating *new* TCM kernel fabric
> modules, it might be easier to post the HOWTO to the list and a gitweb

> So after a single day of python coding things are working remarkably
> well, so far I am able to generate functioning ConfigFS skeletons with
> proper target_core_fabric_lib.c Transport / WWPN handlers, eg:
> multi-fabric transitional SPC-3 PR and ALUA (configfs attributes
> included) that work right out of the box.

> There are are a list of remaining TODO items at the bottom of the doc,
> but I hope that people will actually give this script a shot and see for
> themselves how easy the generation of new configfs code for TCM fabric
> modules can really be!

> Comments are welcome, Enjoy!
