    [SCSI] aacraid: add vpd to inquiry · 88e2f98e
    Salyzyn, Mark 提交于
    Report VPD inquiry page 0x80 with an unique array creation serial
    number (CUID). When an array is created, the metadata stored on the
    physical drives gets an unique serial number. This serial number
    remains constant through array morphing or migration to other
    controllers.  This patch is a forward port and modification to survive
    morphing and migration operations, of a similar piece of
    (un-attributed author) code added to the SLES10 SP1 aacraid driver.
    
    To test the results of the patch, observe that /dev/disk/by-id/
    entries will show up for the arrays resulting from the udev rules.
    Also, as per the udev rules, 'scsi_id -g -x -a -s /block/sd? -d
    /dev/sd?'  will report the ID_SERIAL as constructed from the inquiry
    data.
    
    It was reported to me that the 'ADPT' leading the serial number was bad
    form, that the inquiry vendor field was enough to differentiate the
    storage uniquely. Subsequent search found that another Adaptec AAC based
    driver reported the 8 hex serial number only without such adornments, so
    dropped ADPT to match. Resubmitting the patch with this alteration.
