-lastly change fe80 to 0000 and create the ACL:
+Initiator ACLs start with all 0's. Targets start with fe80.

   Created mapped LUN 0.
+A Linux SRP target is always visible from all InfiniBand partitions.
 ====Dependencies====
   apt install srptools
+Do **NOT** set srp_daemon loose without using the -o flag! It will flood dmesg on both the initiator and the target!
 Find targets to connect to:

   * -c means "emit target information in a format we can use later"
   * -p 1 means "only scan on HCA port 1" so obviously change this if you are initiating from port 2...
+====Configuration====
+It is **critical** that you edit /etc/srp_daemon.conf as soon as you have a list of targets and disallow connections to anything except the targets you want. The default file is well commented.
+To connect to a target listed by srp_daemon, write it to the appropriate add_target file in /sys/class/infiniband_srp. Here's how shark gets its swap ramdisk from southpark:
+  echo 'id_ext=5849560e53b70b01,ioc_guid=5849560e53b70b01,dgid=fe800000000000005849560e53b70b01,pkey=ffff,service_id=5849560e53b70b01' > /sys/class/infiniband_srp/srp-ibp14s0f0-1/add_target

-...so I'm using some for swap. We'll see how long it takes me to induce a kernel panic. ;)
+====Logout====
+"Delete the port" sounds pretty destructive, but this actually is the graceful way to close the connection.
