In open-iscsi-2.0.878 upstream of Gentoo there was a bug related to timeouts, it was fixed in open-iscsi-2.1.4 upstream, however genkernel is still referencing 2.0.878 in VERSION_ISCSI [1] in all current ebuilds. These patches [2] allow updating the version genkernel uses to 2.1.4. Bumping VERSION_ISCSI to 2.1.4 and including the patches in the genkernel ebuild would be appreciated.

I was advised on IRC to open a PR for bumping the ebuild version, as the patches mentioned before have already been merged. This PR updates the open-iscsi version https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/29564
