Tomo,

the last commit you did, instead of the patch you send me before (tgtadm 
patch) it patched
target.c, but it doesn't work for me.

I made the startup initd script verbose (-vx option) and tried to see 
what is happening when starting up.

Here's the last bit:

+ case $1 in
+ start
+ echo 'Starting target framework daemon'
Starting target framework daemon
+ tgtd
+ RETVAL=0
+ '[' 0 -ne 0 ']'
+ tgtadm --op update --mode sys --name State -v offline
+ tgt-admin -e -c /etc/tgt/targets.conf
tgtadm: tgtd closed the socket
tgtadm: can't get the response, Connection reset by peer
Command:
    tgtadm --lld iscsi --op update --mode logicalunit --tid 1 --lun=1 
--params removable="1"
exited with code: 104.
+ tgtadm --op update --mode sys --name State -v ready
tgtadm: can't send the request to the tgt daemon, Transport endpoint is 
not connected.

One tgtd process is killed, the other hangs for ever, until I kill it 
with -9.

When I reversed your last commit (force ssc to use bs_ssc) and inserted 
your previous patch it works fine again.
