Mike, can you please give more details on how you tell the target layer rbd
does not have the lock and to stop iscsi connection. Which
tcmu-runner/kernel-target functions are used for that?

In fact, I performed an experiment with three stale write requests stuck on
blacklisted gateway, and one of them managed to overwrite newer data. I
followed all instructions from
http://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/rbd/iscsi-target-cli-manual-install/ and
http://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/rbd/iscsi-target-cli/, so I'm interested
what I'm missing...

Thanks,
Maxim
