v4.9 commit aceeffbb59bb ("zfcp: trace full payload of all SAN records
(req,resp,iels)") fixed trace data loss of 2.6.38 commit 2c55b750a884
("[SCSI] zfcp: Redesign of the debug tracing for SAN records.")
necessary for problem determination, e.g. to see the
currently active zone set during automatic port scan.
While it already saves space by not dumping any empty residual entries
of the large successful GPN_FT response (4 pages), there are seldom cases
where the GPN_FT response is unsuccessful and likely does not have
FC_NS_FID_LAST set in fp_flags so we did not cap the trace record.
We typically see such case for an initiator WWPN, which is not in any zone.
Cap unsuccessful responses to at least the actual basic CT_IU response
plus whatever fits the SAN trace record built-in "payload" buffer
just in case there's trailing information
of which we would at least see the existence and its beginning.
In order not to erroneously cap successful responses, we need to swap
calling the trace function and setting the CT / ELS status to success (0).

The fix saves all but one of the previously associated 64 PAYload trace
record chunks of size 256 bytes each.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
