Package: smp-utils
Version: 0.99-1

Hi,
smp_discover 1.62 20190124 from smp-utils 0.99-1 has a bug when the
-p/--phy options is used; -n/--num is also broken.
The main problem is that the -p option is handled incorrectly, e.g. smp_discover -p 5
not only starts at phy 5 but also skips the last 5 phys.

For instance, on a system with 30 phys on expander-1:1:
# smp_discover -m /dev/bsg/expander-1:1 # This works fine and is only shown to showcase the bugs

This bug was introduced in git commit

starting at line 923:
https://github.com/doug-gilbert/smp_utils/commit/5e9dd3dbab9f7fc85e2816ab2eb62bc92b068cc1#diff-853a65985ccfe20502945ddfbc340cbedde6cda3b15a3b09c64424634cd53c74R923 <https://github.com/doug-gilbert/smp_utils/commit/5e9dd3dbab9f7fc85e2816ab2eb62bc92b068cc1#diff-853a65985ccfe20502945ddfbc340cbedde6cda3b15a3b09c64424634cd53c74R923>
The working code was:
num = op->do_num ? (op->phy_id + op->do_num) : MAX_PHY_ID;

The new broken code is:
num = get_num_phys(top, op, &has_t2t);
if (num <= 0)
     num = op->do_num ? (op->phy_id + op->do_num) : MAX_PHY_ID;
else {
     if (op->phy_id >= num) {
         printf("Given phy_id=%d at or beyond number of phys (%d)\n",
                op->phy_id, num);
         return 0;   /* nothing to do */
     }
     num -= op->phy_id;
     if (op->do_num)
         num = (num > op->do_num) ? op->do_num : num;
}
I don't really understand what upstream was trying to do here, possibly
attempting to improve the error messages?
I emailed them as they don't really seem to have a bug tracker. This was
on 2025-01-17 and I haven't received a reply yet. I don't know if the project is still actively maintained as upstream's doesn't seem to be public, but the GitHub mirror hasn't been updated for about 2 years.

I have opened a trivial merge request at
https://salsa.debian.org/linux-blocks-team/smp-utils/-/merge_requests/4 <https://salsa.debian.org/linux-blocks-team/smp-utils/-/merge_requests/4>
which is restoring the old code to make option parsing work again.
