Hello Thorsten

I think the information you need is here:

<http://www.open-iscsi.org/docs/README>

In a nutshell:

The kernel portion of Open-iSCSI is a from-scratch code
licensed under GPL. The kernel part implements iSCSI data path
(that is, iSCSI Read and iSCSI Write), and consists of three
loadable modules: scsi_transport_iscsi.ko, libiscsi.ko and iscsi_tcp.ko.


Also:

As of today, the Open-iSCSI Initiator requires a host running the
Linux operating system with kernel version 2.6.16, or later. See
http://www.open-iscsi.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl/Supported_Kernels
for a more information about which kernels Open-iSCSI supports.
You need to enable "Cryptographic API" under "Cryptographic options" in the
kernel config. And you must enable "CRC32c CRC algorithm" even if
you do not use header or data digests. They are the kernel options,
CONFIG_CRYPTO and CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRC32C, respectively.
