If an iSCSI connection happens to fail while the daemon isn't running (due to a crash or for another reason), the kernel failure report is not received. When the daemon restarts, there is insufficient kernel state in sysfs for it to know that this happened. open-iscsi tries to reopen every connection, but on different initiators, we'd like to know which connections have failed. There is session->state, but that has a different lifetime than an iSCSI connection, so it doesn't directly reflect the connection state.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
