Hi Christophe,
this patchset implements a new field 'revision' for the hardware table,
which is filled with the 'revision' field from the SCSI Inquiry. The
reason for this is that HP switched the behaviour during a firmware
update (ie from using START_STOP_UNIT to ALUA). And to support this
properly we'll have to match against the 'revision' field, too.
In doing so I've found a bug in load_config(). Currently, we're loading
the default hardware table with comparing via regex. However, as the
default table also contains regexp we'll end up comparing _two_ regexps,
the outcome of which is a quite peculiar to say the least. We should
rather be using a simple string match to avoid this pitfall.
So, this patchset does
- Correct load_config() to compare entries via string match
- Implements matching against the revision field
- Updates the hardware table for HP HSV200 support.
Cheers,
Hannes
