I must have missed this thread. A Qlogic conjoint SCSI/FC driver is
available from ftp.feral.com but it hasn't been ported into the 2.1
framework yet. That will happen very soon- when I can get the work I'm
contracted to do down to a dull roar. This is an 'automatic transmision'
approach to FC- it's SCSI only, and treats stuff like a fat SCSI bus.

I have a JNI card as well which if I get time to do will use the FC4
directory as it's like SOCAL in that you have to do things like do PLOGI
yourself.
