There are two ways to use a iSCSI LUN as disk source for qemu.
* The LUN's path showed up on host, e.g.
/dev/disk/by-path/ip-$ip:3260-iscsi-$iqn-fc18:iscsi.iscsi0-lun-1
* The libiscsi URI, e.g.
iscsi://demo.org:6000/iqn.1992-01.com.example/1
For a "volume" type disk, if the specified "pool" is of iscsi
type, we should support to use the LUN either of above 2 ways.
That's why to introduce a new XML tag "mode" for the disk source
(libvirt should support iscsi pool with libiscsi, but it's another
new feature, which should be done later).
The "mode" can be either of "host" or "uri".
"host" to indicate
use the LUN with the path showed up on host. "uri" to indicate
use it with the libiscsi URI (future patches may support to use
network type libvirt storage too, e.g. Ceph, that's why to use
a more general name "uri").
