[libmultipath] blacklist exceptions issues
the current situation is fishy. Ben pointed a true braino in the
code I introduced when restructuring the blacklist lib :
in _filter_path(), I test each _filter_*() for r!=0 , where I intented
to check for r>0.
r==0 implements : "exit on first blacklist or exception match".
r>0 implements : "exit on first blacklist match".
With this later behaviour I can set things like that for max safety and
efficiency :
blacklist {
devnode .*
device {
vendor .*
product .*
}
wwid .*
}
blacklist_exceptions {
devnode sd.*
device {
vendor IET.*
product .*
}
wwid "
1646561646265.*"
}
or pragmatically :
blacklist {
devnode .*
wwid .*
}
blacklist_exceptions {
devnode sd.*
wwid "
1646561646265.*"
}
Working that out, I also realized there may be another small
misbehaviour :
First, a little background on path discovery operations :
1) /sys/block parsing shows devnode names
2) devnode names examination shows device identification strings
3) these strings help us choose a getuid helper, which finally shows
wwids
Meaning we want the devnode blacklisting to prevail over device and
wwid, in case we know we don't have device strings available (loop, dm-,
raw, ...)
Similarily, we want the device blacklist to prevail over wwid, in case
we know we don't have getuid callout available. I have no example for
this case though, so it shouldn't be as important as the previous one.
Problem is we challenge _filter_device() after _filter_wwid().
This can be easily shufled around.

[libmultipath] Add new priority checker mpath_hp_sw
All paths from a controller with HP Active/Standby firmware
should really be grouped according to their status; otherwise
the path switching will not work properly or you can use only
one path to that array.
This patch adds a new priority checker 'mpath_hp_sw' which
will allow these paths to be grouped accordingly.

[kpartx] Use mapname for device-mapper devices
When kpartx is run on a device-mapper device it makes more sense
to use the mapname for generating the device name, not the supplied

[libmultipath] Fix overflow in circular queue
Multipathd has a circular buffer where messages are stored prior to being
passed into the system logs. Under certain circumstances the circular buffer
fills up; and the intention appears to be that new messages are dropped until
space is freed in the buffer.
However sometimes the result of a full circular buffer is to overwrite the
earlier messages before they have been passed to the system buffer; resulting
in the loss of early messages and corruption of later messages.

[multipathd] add CLI readline completion
This one needed a bit of work :
o Add a convenient vector_foreach_slot_after() to the vector lib
o Move all add_handler() calls from main.c to cli.c, but don't set handlers
there. This way the multipathd binary execed as the CLI (-k flag) gains
the leisure the load the CLI dictionnary too. Which is quite useful for
keyword completion.
o Add a set_handler_callback() function and use it in main.c in place of
former add_handler() calls.
o No need to compute len each vector_foreach_slot() iteration in find_key()
o get_cmdvec() returns more precise failure hints as int return value.
The readline keyword generator needs those hints.
