[dm-devel] [PATCH 4/6] libmultipath: config parser: Allow '"' in strings

[Martin Wilck]

We have seen model strings lile '2.5" SSD' which can't be parsed
by the current config parser. This patch fixes this by allowing
'""' to represent a double quote character inside a a string.
The above model string could now be entered in the config file like this:

blacklist {
	  vendor SomeCorp
	  product "2.5"" SSD"
}
