Before, when a write protected iSCSI target is attached as scsi-disk
with BDRV_O_RDWR, we report it as writable, while in fact all writes
will fail.
One way to improve this is to report write protect flag as true to
guest, but a even better way is to refuse using a write protected LUN to
guest.
Target write protect flag is checked with a mode sense query.

This is MODE SENSE(6). Fixed and applied.

scsi_datain_unmarshall may fail. You need to check for NULL here.
Thanks for the remark, I fixed this too.

I am not 100% happy with this patch as it may break support for some targets.
It seems that MODESENSE is somewhat tricky with some targets. See function
sd_read_write_protect_flag
in
<http://lxr.free-electrons.com/ident?i=sd_read_write_protect_flag>drivers/scsi/sd.c
of the Linux kernel.
I would not fail if this modesense fails, but just assume write enabled. Maybe
drop a warning.
In the command itself:
0x3F => SCSI_MODEPAGE_RETURN_ALL_PAGES
Can you please post the resulting patch somewhere for review.
Thanks,
Peter
