With the current implementation, the default "fallback" WWID generation
code (if no nguid, euid etc. are defined) for Linux NVME host and target
results in the following WWID format:

nvme.0000-3163653363666438366239656630386200-4c696e75780000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000-00000002

This is not only hard to read, it poses real problems e.g. for multipath
(dm WWIDs are limited to 128 characters).

With this patch series, the WWID on a Linux host connected to a Linux target
looks like this:

nvme.0000-65613435333665653738613464363961-4c696e7578-00000001

Changes wrt v1:
 * 1/3: new, moved helper to include/linux/string.h (Christoph Hellwig)
        (you suggested kernel.h, but I think this matches string.h better)      
 * Dropped the last patch from the v1 series that would have changed valid WWIDs for
   HW NVME controllers.

Changes wrt v2:
 * 3/3: Make sure no underflow occurs (Joe Perches)

Martin Wilck (3):
  string.h: add memcpy_and_pad()
  nvmet: identify controller: improve standard compliance
  nvme: wwid_show: strip trailing 0-bytes

Hi Andrew,

After merging the akpm-current tree, today's linux-next build (arm
multi_v7_defconfig) failed like this:

In file included from /home/sfr/next/next/include/uapi/linux/uuid.h:21:0,
                 from /home/sfr/next/next/include/linux/uuid.h:19,

                 from /home/sfr/next/next/scripts/mod/devicetable-offsets.c:2:

Caused by commit

interacting with commit

from the block tree.

I have applied the following merge fix patch:
