This is a backwards-incompatible change. Today the ib_srpt target driver
accepts initiator port names with and without leading "0x". With this
change the "0x" prefix becomes mandatory.

The internally ib_srpt formatted ch->sess_name already needs to match
se_node_acl->initiatorname for se_node_acl->acl_group configfs group
shutdown reference..

How does this patch become a backworks-incompatible change for that..?

Hello Nic,

Personally I'm not that worried about this change but I wanted to report it anyway. The current algorithm is as follows:
- When a directory is created in configfs for an initiator, the
  initiator name is parsed and stored in binary form in struct
  srpt_node_acl. The parsing function accepts both initiator
  names that start with a "0x" prefix and initiator names that
  do not have that prefix.
- During login the initiator port ID provided by the initiator in
  the SRP login request is compared with the binary initiator port ID
  in struct srpt_node_acl.

The patch at the start of this e-mail thread changes this behavior because core_tpg_get_initiator_node_acl() looks up the initiator port ID in a list that contains the ASCII representations of the initiator port ID. This means that the initiator port name will only be found by core_tpg_get_initiator_node_acl() if the name format used in the mkdir command matches the initiator name format used by the core_tpg_get_initiator_node_acl() caller, this means with "0x" prefix.

Bart.

Bart.
