Enable qla2xxx Linux target support on Oracle Linux 8
Raw
qla2xxx-reenable-ol8.md

The RHEL8 offcial kernel and Oracle RHCK kernel have removed FC target support of QLogic HBAs. But Oracle's UEK kernel still has relevant kernel modules. Userland tools like targetcli depends on python3-rtslib, qla2xxx support is implemented but commented out. Commands below would unmask qla2xxx support, so it will show up in targetcli's ls output.

sed -i s'/^#    "qla2xxx"/    "qla2xxx"/' /usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/rtslib/fabric.py
sed -i s'/^#    "qla2xxx"/    "qla2xxx"/' /usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/rtslib_fb/fabric.py
