[ Upstream commit f0aa59a33d2ac2267d260fe21eaf92500df8e7b4 ] Some USB-SATA adapters have broken behavior when an unsupported VPD page is probed: Depending on the VPD page number, a 4-byte header with a valid VPD page number but with a 0 length is returned. Currently, scsi_vpd_inquiry() only checks that the page number is valid to determine if the page is valid, which results in receiving only the 4-byte header for the non-existent page. This error manifests itself very often with page 0xb9 for the Concurrent Positioning Ranges detection done by sd_read_cpr(), resulting in the following error message: sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Invalid Concurrent Positioning Ranges VPD page Prevent such misleading error message by adding a check in scsi_vpd_inquiry() to verify that the page length is not 0.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
