Hi Namita: CISCO is the patent holder for Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FoE) mapping. Interestingly enough, there is a site that talks about the Open Source software stack. Take a look at http://www.fcoe.com/ I also saw an posting by Robert Love of Open-FCoE.org http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/11/27/227 May be you may want to take a look at the current driver implementation Pull it from git://open-fcoe.org/openfc/open-fcoe.git and work with Linux 2.6.24 code base. thanks Saifi.
