+    <p>
+         Building on the new in-kernel iSCSI target and initiator stack released in FreeBSD 10.0, Chelsio Communications has begun developing an offload interface to take advantage of the hardware offload capabilities of Chelsio T4 and T5 10 and 40 gigabit Ethernet adapters.
+
+         The code implements hardware PDU offload for both target and initiator.  The iSCSI stack has been modified to provide hardware-independent offload API, allowing offload drivers to be loaded as kernel modules, and to provide mechanisms for the system administrator to configure this feature.  The project is entering a testing phase.  The code will be released under the BSD license and is expected to be completed later in the year and ship in FreeBSD 10.2-RELEASE.
