MAC addresses specified in iface files are currently case sensitive.
This can be an issue on vlan interfaces, as isciadm -m iface does not
create config files for vlan interfaces and they need to be written
manually.  Attached patch will convert uppercase MAC addresses to lower
case after reading them (iscsiadm expects them in lower case only).

 

There seems to be another issue with VLAN interfaces.  Interface files
for offloaded vlan interfaces (on chelsio cards atleast) need a hardware
address to be specified to work. As of now, iscsiadm does not catch this
and will simply fail. This is already noted in the readme, but would
there be any interest in adding functionality to 'iscsiadm -m iface' to
handle vlan interfaces, or warn about missing hwaddress keys when it
comes to offloaded vlan interfaces ?
