[PATCHv2 0/4] Fixup blacklist handling

[Hannes Reinecke]

Hi all,

the SCSI blacklist handling seems to be rather tricky issue;
everytime a fix is included it tends to break other devices.
This patchset attempt to simplify the devlist handling yet again,
but this time implementing the framework for regression testing, too.
A patch adding a regression test to the blktest suite will follow.

As usual, comments and reviews are welcome.

Changes to v1:
- Implement exact match for vendor string as suggested by Bart
- Straigten out issues pointed out by Alan Stern
- Reshuffle patches

Hannes Reinecke (4):
  scsi_debug: allow to specify inquiry vendor and model
  scsi: Export blacklist flags to sysfs
  scsi: whitespace fixes in scsi_devinfo.c
  scsi_devinfo: fixup string compare

[PATCHv2 1/4] scsi_debug: allow to specify inquiry vendor and model

[Hannes Reinecke]

For testing purposes we need to be able to pass in the inquiry
vendor and model.

[PATCHv2 2/4] scsi: Export blacklist flags to sysfs

[Hannes Reinecke]

Each scsi device is scanned according to the found blacklist flags,
but this information is never presented to sysfs.
This makes it quite hard to figure out if blacklisting worked as
expected.
With this patch we're exporting an additional attribute 'blacklist'
containing the blacklist flags for this device.

[PATCHv2 4/4] scsi_devinfo: fixup string compare

[Hannes Reinecke]

When checking the model and vendor string we need to use the
minimum value of either string, otherwise we'll miss out on
wildcard matches.
And we should take card when matching with zero size strings;
results might be unpredictable.
With this patch the rules for matching devinfo strings are
as follows:
- Vendor strings must match exactly
- Empty Model strings will only match if the devinfo model
  is also empty
- Model strings shorter than the devinfo model string will
  not match

Fixes: 5e7ff2c ("SCSI: fix new bug in scsi_dev_info_list string matching")

This is now true only for the model string, not the vendor string.  And 
even for the model string, you allow the lengths to differ in only one 
direction (the model string can be longer than the devinfo model 
string, but not vice versa).

Good, this is a lot better than before.  These rules make sense.

However, the rules and the code are both somewhat redundant.  For 
example, the second rule above is already a consequence of the third 
rule: If the model string is empty and the devinfo model string isn't, 
then the model string is shorter than the devinfo model string so they 
won't match.

Neither of these changes is needed.

There's no need to test vskip and vmax.  The memcmp test alone is 
sufficient, since you know the lengths are equal and you are looking 
for an exact match.  So in the end, you could just do this:

			if (vmax != strlen(devinfo->vendor) ||
			    memcmp(devinfo->vendor, vskip, vmax))
				continue;

As mentioned above, this is not necessary.

Nor is this.

It would be safer to do it this way:

			n = strlen(devinfo->model);
			if (mmax < n || memcmp(devinfo->model, mskip, n))
				continue;
			return devinfo;

Otherwise you run the risk of comparing part of the devinfo model 
string to bytes beyond the end of the model string.

Hmm. Let's see; I'll have the testsuite retest this.

I was assuming that we're being passed in the full model string (ie the
full 16 bytes). But as we don't have a way of checking your way will be
safer.

Will be updating the patch.

There have been changes to the blacklist values over the years so I'm
not so keen on exporting them as a numbers.

This looks fine to me.

Ah, good to know.
I was thinking of exporting them as text; 'tis better for a quick check
anyway.
Would that be acceptable?
