  Operating FCoE using bnx2fc
  ===========================
  Broadcom FCoE offload through bnx2fc is full stateful hardware offload that
  cooperates with all interfaces provided by the Linux ecosystem for FC/FCoE and
  SCSI controllers.  As such, FCoE functionality, once enabled is largely
  transparent. Devices discovered on the SAN will be registered and unregistered
  automatically with the upper storage layers.
  
  Despite the fact that the Broadcom's FCoE offload is fully offloaded, it does
  depend on the state of the network interfaces to operate. As such, the network
  interface (e.g. eth0) associated with the FCoE offload initiator must be 'up'.
  It is recommended that the network interfaces be configured to be brought up
  automatically at boot time.
  
  Furthermore, the Broadcom FCoE offload solution creates VLAN interfaces to
  support the VLANs that have been discovered for FCoE operation (e.g.
  eth0.1001-fcoe).  Do not delete or disable these interfaces or FCoE operation
  will be disrupted.
  
  Driver Usage Model:
  ===================
  
  1. Ensure that fcoe-utils package is installed.
  
  2. Configure the interfaces on which bnx2fc driver has to operate on.
  Here are the steps to configure:
  	a. cd /etc/fcoe
  	b. copy cfg-ethx to cfg-eth5 if FCoE has to be enabled on eth5.
  	c. Repeat this for all the interfaces where FCoE has to be enabled.
  	d. Edit all the cfg-eth files to set "no" for DCB_REQUIRED** field, and
  	   "yes" for AUTO_VLAN.
  	e. Other configuration parameters should be left as default
  
  3. Ensure that "bnx2fc" is in SUPPORTED_DRIVERS list in /etc/fcoe/config.
  
  4. Start fcoe service. (service fcoe start). If Broadcom devices are present in
  the system, bnx2fc driver would automatically claim the interfaces, starts vlan
  discovery and log into the targets.
  
  5. "Symbolic Name" in 'fcoeadm -i' output would display if bnx2fc has claimed
  the interface.
  Eg:
  [root@bh2 ~]# fcoeadm -i

  6. Verify the vlan discovery is performed by running ifconfig and notice
  <INTERFACE>.<VLAN>-fcoe interfaces are automatically created.
  
  Refer to fcoeadm manpage for more information on fcoeadm operations to
  create/destroy interfaces or to display lun/target information.
  
  NOTE:
  ====
  ** Broadcom FCoE capable devices implement a DCBX/LLDP client on-chip. Only one
  LLDP client is allowed per interface. For proper operation all host software
  based DCBX/LLDP clients (e.g. lldpad) must be disabled. To disable lldpad on a
  given interface, run the following command:
  
  lldptool set-lldp -i <interface_name> adminStatus=disabled
