Hi, The issue with containers has been that the interface between iscsid and the kernel is not aware of network namespaces, and will not work if not using the root/host network. I have a partial fix (kernel patch set) that needs finishing, making the iSCSI netlink protocol namespace aware and limiting visibility of iSCSI sysfs objects by network namespace. The flash-node sysfs interface needs migrating from bus to class code to take advantage of the namespace filtering, and this would only work for iscsi_tcp and maybe iser without additional work to migrate iscsi_host devices between network namespaces.
This seems to be getting more attention lately, I'll see if I can't make it more of a priority.
