I've been using Qlogic's QLA2100 Fibre Channel card for a few months.
There's a driver for 2.1.x available from the University of New Hampshire
Interoperability Lab:
http://www.iol.unh.edu/consortiums/fc/fc_linux.html
It's a scsi driver, not in the drivers/fc4 area but in drivers/scsi.
So far I've had no problems, and performance is very good. One current
bug is that two Linux boxes on the same FC-AL (i.e., sharing disks via
a hub) argue about drive ID's and neither system can access the drives.
