I'd like a built-in iSCSI volume driver for docker, podman, et al. There are third party things (netapp trident[1], etc.) but no generic driver. One would think -- given the ubiquity of SAN boxes populating racks outside of cloud operators -- you could "-v iscsi:<rfc-4173-iscsi-uri>:/mountpoint" a network block device into a container out of the box. I suppose it's difficult to deal with in cross platform way. When you read the golang source for trident you see they're just exec-ing iscsiadm on linux container hosts.
