[dm-devel] [PATCH v2 0/3] multipath: change default devnode blacklist

[Benjamin Marzinski]

I recently got a request to add the Oracle ASM filer driver devices to
multipath's builtin devnode blacklist.  However, instead of having to do
always this for each device type individually, I decided to make
multipath blacklist all non scsi, nvme, and dasd devnodes by default.
This is what the multipath udev rules already do.

Changes from v1:
Everything. Martin suggested an alternative method for doing this, which
is to treat an exclamation mark at the start of the blacklist/exceptions
regexes as inverting the matching on the rest of the regex.

Benjamin Marzinski (3):
  libmultipath: remove _blacklist_exceptions functions
  libmultipath: fix parser issue with comments in strings
  libmultipath: invert regexes that start with exclamation point
