[PATCH 5/6] libmultipath: config parser: fix corner case for double quotes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



A corner case of the previous patch are strings starting with a double quote,
such as '"prepended to itself is false" prepended to itself is false' or
'"" is the empty string', and in particular, the string '"' ("\"" in C
notation), which is indistinguishable from the "QUOTE" token in the parsed strvec.

This patch fixes that by introducing a special token that can't occur as part
of a normal string to indicate the beginning and end of a quoted string.

'"' is admittedly not a very likely keyword value for multipath.conf, but
a) this is a matter of correctness, b) we didn't think of '2.5"' before, either, and
c) the (*str != '"') expressions would need to be patched anyway to fix the
'string starting with "' case.
