+Libiscsi is a client-side library to implement the iSCSI protocol that
+can be used to access the resources of an iSCSI target.
+
+The library is fully asynchronous with regards to iSCSI commands and
+SCSI tasks, but a synchronous layer is also provided for ease of use for
+simpler applications.
+
+This library enables applications to act as iSCSI initiators without
+requiring support from the kernel. QEMU uses this to access iSCSI
+targets directly.
