I missed that in my kpartx series although I was trying to be paranoid ;-) > -/* > - * returns: > - * 0 : if both uuids end with same suffix which starts with > UUID_PREFIX > - * 1 : otherwise > - */ > -int > -dm_compare_uuid(const char* mapname1, const char* mapname2) > +static int > +is_mpath_part(const char *part_name, const char *map_name) > { > - char *p1, *p2; > - char uuid1[WWID_SIZE], uuid2[WWID_SIZE]; > + char *p; > + char part_uuid[WWID_SIZE], map_uuid[WWID_SIZE]; > > - if (dm_get_prefixed_uuid(mapname1, uuid1)) > - return 1; > + if (dm_get_prefixed_uuid(part_name, part_uuid)) > + return 0; > > - if (dm_get_prefixed_uuid(mapname2, uuid2)) > - return 1; > + if (dm_get_prefixed_uuid(map_name, map_uuid)) > + return 0; > > - p1 = strstr(uuid1, UUID_PREFIX); > - p2 = strstr(uuid2, UUID_PREFIX); > - if (p1 && p2 && !strcmp(p1, p2)) > + if (strncmp(part_uuid, "part", 4) != 0) > return 0; > > - return 1; > + p = strstr(part_uuid, UUID_PREFIX); > + if (p && !strcmp(p, map_uuid)) > + return 1; > + > + return 0; > } While we've got this far, we might actually implement proper parsing of the UUID instead of "strstr" which would also match something like "partially_recovered-mpath...". ACK nonetheless, further checks can be added on top of this.
