Emulex Virtual HBA Technology Accepted Into Open Source Linux Kernel

,----[ Quote ]
| The Open Source process provides a highly recognized assurance of quality and 
| long-term support for leading technologies such as innovative SAN 
| connectivity solutions. Upstream kernel acceptance ensures a broad 
| distribution of Emulex's LightPulse Virtual HBA technology and encourages the 
| development of virtual HBA-based capabilities and value-added solutions. 
| Current Emulex Open Source drivers already operate with Linux and Xen, 
| enabling robust SAN connectivity in these environments.
