Title:
  cant use -d switch

Status in tgt package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in tgt package in Debian:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  tgt-1:1.0.62-1ubuntu2

  # ./tgtd -d 1
  -d argument value '1' invalid
  Try `tgtd --help' for more information.

  
  The following change should fix the problem:

                  ret = ERANGE;                           \

  
  Here, the errno is checked incorrectly: you can't check
  errno unless the returned value allows you to. In case
  of strtoull(), errno should be checked only if ULONG_MAX is
  returned.
  I however can't test the fix properly because when compiled
  from source, the bug doesn't happen. The value of errno is
  unspecified, and it just happens to be 0 when I compile from
  sources.
