Hotplug what? That's a _very_ general term. Hotplug CPU? Hotplug
Memory? Hotplug SCSI disk? Hotplug USB device? Hotplug keyboard?
Hotplug PCI device? Hotplug IEEE1394 device? Hotplug PCMCIA device?
The userspace /sbin/hotplug script? The linux-hotplug script package?
and so on...

They all work differently, as they are all different things.

I do not know anything about iSCSI, sorry. Try asking on the linux-scsi
mailing list.
