Enabling CONFIG_TARGET_CORE in the kernel configuration creates the target_core_mod module, that it's needed for iSCSI target creation in LinuxIO using the LIO (http://linux-iscsi.org/wiki/LIO). This allows using native linux tools as 'targetcli' and 'targetcli-fb' from the default Debian and Ubuntu repositories to work out of the box, so that multicore ARM64 boards con be configures as SAN servers on a network.
