Sorry, I found a glitch.

With the change of the "len" calculation and the return value check, we
  need to make sure sufficient data has been read:

@@ -1100,13 +1101,19 @@ get_vpd_sgio (int fd, int pg, char * str, int maxlen)
 	unsigned char buff[4096];
 
 	memset(buff, 0x0, 4096);
-	if (sgio_get_vpd(buff, 4096, fd, pg) <= 0) {
+	buff_len = sgio_get_vpd(buff, 4096, fd, pg);
+	if (buff_len < 0) {
 		condlog(3, "failed to issue vpd inquiry for pg%02x",
 			pg);
-		return -errno;
+		return errno != 0 ? -errno : -1;
 	}
 
-	if (buff[1] != pg) {
+	if (buff_len < 4) {
+		condlog(3, "vpd pg%02x error, short read", pg);
+		return -ENODATA;
+	}
+
+	if ( buff[1] != pg) {
 		condlog(3, "vpd pg%02x error, invalid vpd page %02x",
 			pg, buff[1]);
 		return -ENODATA;

As you can see I added also a small hunk that makes it explcicit that
we don't return 0 on failure by accident.

Regards,
Martin
