rtslib-fb
=========
A Python object API for managing the Linux LIO kernel target
------------------------------------------------------------
rtslib-fb is an object-based Python library for configuring the LIO
generic SCSI target, present in 3.x Linux kernel versions.
It supports both Python 2 and Python 3, thanks to the python-six library.
rtslib-fb development
---------------------
rtslib-fb is licensed under the Apache 2.0 license. Contributions are welcome.
Since rtslib-fb is used most often with targetcli-fb, the targetcli-fb
mailing should be used for rtslib-fb discussion.

"fb" -- "free branch"
---------------------
rtslib-fb is a fork of the "rtslib" code written by RisingTide Systems.
The "-fb" differentiates between the original and this version.
Please ensure to use either all "fb" versions of the targetcli components --
targetcli, rtslib, and configshell, or stick with all non-fb versions, since
they are no longer strictly compatible.
