Bug ID: 241929
Summary: sesutil --libxo fails to sanitize garbage data from
the enclosures
Product: Base System
Version: CURRENT
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Many People
Priority: ---
Component: bin
Assignee: b...@freebsd.org
Reporter: asom...@freebsd.org
"sesutil --libxo" is awesome. It's very easy to parse, but ONLY if the
enclosure's element descriptors are all valid UTF-8. Unfortunately, we can't
rely on that. If an element descriptor is not valid UTF-8, then the JSON or
XML output is not parseable. Here's a real-world example:
$ sesutil map --libxo xml,pretty -u /dev/ses0
<sesutil version="1">
<enclosures>
<enc>ses0</enc>
<name>SMC946 C1 0a01</name>
...
<id>500304800924823f</id>
<elements>
<id>33</id>
<type>Enclosure</type>
<status>OK</status>
<status_code>0x01 0x00 0x00 0x00</status_code>
<description>��������������������������������</description>
</elements>
...
</enclosures>
</sesutil>
Those mystery characters are all 0xFF bytes. sesutil needs to sanitize those
fields before it prints them.
