From: Hannes Reinecke <hare@xxxxxxxx> 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 Changes to v2: - Simplify code as indicated by Alan Stern - Display blacklist flags verbatim - Reformat blacklist flags definition for better readability Changes to v3: - Add reviews from Alan Stern - Generate blacklist flag definitions - Include reviews from Martin Petersen Changes to v4: - Add reviews from Bart - Rework blacklist flag string generation Hannes Reinecke (5): scsi_debug: allow to specify inquiry vendor and model scsi: Export blacklist flags to sysfs scsi_devinfo: Reformat blacklist flags scsi_devinfo: Whitespace fixes scsi_devinfo: fixup string compare drivers/scsi/Makefile | 8 +++++ drivers/scsi/scsi_debug.c | 25 ++++++++++----- drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c | 67 ++++++++++++++++++++------------------- drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c | 1 + drivers/scsi/scsi_sysfs.c | 40 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ include/scsi/scsi_devinfo.h | 76 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------------- 6 files changed, 151 insertions(+), 66 deletions(-) -- 2.12.3
