vdev_id: Fix partition regular expression #11637

Motivation and Context

Fix a bug when using the vdev_id script with partitioned multipath devices.

Description

Given a DM device name, the old vdev_id script would extract any text after a 'p' as the partition number. It then appends "-part" + the partition number to the name, giving a by-vdev name like "L0-part5".

This works fine if the DM name is like 'dm-2p5', but doesn't work if the DM name is a multipath name like "mpatha". In those cases it incorrectly matches the 'p' in "mpatha", giving by-vdev names like "L0-partatha".

This patch fixes the issue by making the partition regex match stricter.

How Has This Been Tested?

Tested on 3 enclosure types. Verified the sas_handler() codepath hit the multipath bug, and saw this patch fix it. Tested a fake mpath name with a partition number and saw it make the correct by-vdev partition paths. Also tested the alias_handler() codepath on some partitioned NVMe devices and saw it create the by-vdev partition paths. Did not test the scsi_handler() codepath, but it's effectively the same code, so it should work.

Types of changes

  • Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
  • New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
  • Performance enhancement (non-breaking change which improves efficiency)
  • Code cleanup (non-breaking change which makes code smaller or more readable)
  • Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to change)
  • Library ABI change (libzfs, libzfs_core, libnvpair, libuutil and libzfsbootenv)
  • Documentation (a change to man pages or other documentation)

Checklist:

Given a DM device name, the old vdev_id script would extract any text
after a 'p' as the partition number.  It then appends "-part" + the
partition number to the name, giving a by-vdev name like "L0-part5".

This works fine if the DM name is like 'dm-2p5', but doesn't work if
the DM name is a multipath name like "mpatha".  In those cases it
incorrectly matches the 'p' in "mpatha", giving by-vdev names like
"L0-partatha".
