[PATCH 0/2] scsi: vpd sanity checks

[Hannes Reinecke]

Hi all,

here's a combined patchset to clear up the sanity checks for VPD page
support. The first patch streamlines the function to check for VPD page
support, and the second one lowers the minimal SCSI version for VPD
page support to SPC-2, to avoid having to whitelist a lot of devices.

As usual, comments and reviews are welcome.

Hannes Reinecke (2):
  scsi: Do not attach VPD to devices that don't support it
  scsi: vpd pages are mandatory for SPC-2

[PATCH 1/2] scsi: Do not attach VPD to devices that don't support it

[Hannes Reinecke]

The patch "scsi: rescan VPD attributes" introduced a regression in which
devices that don't support VPD were being scanned for VPD attributes
anyway.  This could cause issues for this parts and should be avoided so
the check for scsi_level has been moved out of scsi_add_lun and into
scsi_attach_vpd so that all callers will not scan VPD for devices that
don't support it.

Fixes: 09e2b0b14690 ("scsi: rescan VPD attributes")

[PATCH 2/2] scsi: vpd pages are mandatory for SPC-2

[Hannes Reinecke]

VPD pages 0x0 and 0x83 are mandatory even for SPC-2, so we should
be lowering the restriction to avoid having to whitelist every
SPC-2 compliant device.

Applied to 4.6/scsi-fixes, CC:stable 4.5+.

Linus took patch 1/2 for 4.6rc3 so I have rebased 4.7/scsi-queue and
applied patch 2/2.
