+Transport supplied functions
+----------------------------
+
+The following functions are supplied by the FC-transport for use by LLDs.
+
+   fc_vport_create - create a vport
+   fc_vport_terminate - detach and remove a vport
+
+Details:

+ * @shost:     scsi host the virtual port is connected to.
+ * @ids:       The world wide names, FC4 port roles, etc for
+ *              the virtual port.
+ *
+ * Notes:
+ *     This routine assumes no locks are held on entry.
