Re: which kind of driver to design for AoE protocol?

scsi/storport miniports for hardware do tend to run at raised irql and
why not, all their code is IRQL insensitive. However, it is also
technically possible to process all of the SRB's at PASSIVE_LEVEL. I
had provided a link in this thread to an example that demonstrates
this. Thus, you could use the standard network stack. I don't know
about the iSCSI miniport architecture, but would hope it too allows
PASSIVE_LEVEL since this is very important for many types of virtual
hardware.
