2312 [CF] Add new object oriented interface to access ATA and SCSI devices.
2313 smartctl and smartd are modified to use the new classes in
2314 'dev_interface.{h,cpp}'. The template class in 'dev_tunnelled.h'
2315 is used in 'scsiata.cpp'. The code in 'dev_ata_cmd_set.{h,cpp}'
2316 supports migration from old function 'ata_command_interface()'.
2317 All existing 'os_*.cpp' modules should still work without any changes.
2318 The required adapter classes from 'dev_legacy.cpp' are automatically
2319 added by configure if necessary.
2321 [BA] Updated smartd and smartctl and smartd.conf man-page documentation
2322 to reflect support for Areca SATA RAID controller cards.
2324 [OB] Added support for Areca controllers to smartd. Extensive tests
2325 as well as documentation are still pending however.
2327 [OB] Implemented device locking for Areca controllers in smartctl
2329 [BA] Fixed selective self-test code. Data structure revision number
2330 may be != 1 if no selective self-test has ever been run. Host
2331 MUST set this value (at least at the first selective self-test
2332 instance). Thanks to Curtis Stevens of WDC for clarification.
2334 [MC] usbcypress autodetection
2336 [BA] Starting to commit Areca code. For now just smartctl.
2337 More changes and documentation coming soon.
2338 Need Areca firmware version 1.45 dated 10 June 2008 or later.
2339 May need changes in opening /dev/sg and file locking.
2340 Many thanks to Hank Wu!
2342 [CF] smartd: Fix too small name buffer for 3ware with >100 devices.
2344 [JH] now C++ Support for QNX Target
2345 already tested for QNX 6.3.2 on x86 and armle target
2347 [CF] Allow to set BUILD_INFO from make command line.
2349 [CF] Windows: Add MSVC8 support, remove MSVC6 project files.
2351 [MC] Add usbcypress device support for smartd.
2353 [CF] Add output of latest CVS date/time stamp to version info.
2354 New file cvsversion.h is generated by Makefile.
2355 Move formatting of version info to utility.cpp.
2357 [AR] Fix bug in 3ware node creation where nodes would be created
2358 then deleted, then recreated.
2360 [BA] Add missing CCISS cvs version tags to '-V' printouts.
2362 [TS] Linux: Ensure the 3ware device nodes are created with a correct
2363 SELinux security context.
2365 [AR] Add support for up to 128 devices on 3ware controllers.
2367 [CF] C++: Added new main() with exception handlers, replaced
2368 exit(x) with throw(x), removed global variable 'exitstatus'.
2369 Necessary for future changes, because exit() does not call
2372 [SS] FreeBSD: plug file descriptor leak in smartd (only happens with
2373 CISS devices). Reported by Vadim Ostranitsyn.
2375 [SS] FreeBSD: allow smartctl to interact with SCSI /dev/pass devices,
2376 thus enabling it to work with RAID controllers that expose disks
2377 via these devices. From scottl@ via FreeBSD ports.
2379 [MC] Add usbcypress device support for smartctl.
2381 [KS] INSTALL on Solaris: updated description to use C++ compiler.
2383 [KS] configure.in on Solaris: added options for Sun's compiler to
2384 suppress trivial warnings.
2386 [KS] configure.in on Solaris: added direction to search suitable
2387 libraries for getaddrinfo().
2389 [TS] smartd on Linux: remove forgotten return from deviceopen();
2390 SCSI device descriptors had the FD_CLOEXEC flag unset.
2392 [CF] Added 'const' to avoid warning on depreciated string constant
2393 to 'char *' conversion.
2395 [CF] autogen.sh: automake 1.10.1 is OK. Updated message texts.
2397 [BA] removed smartmontools.spec file (now in CVS Attic). This
2398 was not being used by RH or FC anyhow, and was out of
2399 date and not maintained.
2401 [BA] smartd on Linux: sets FD_CLOEXEC on the opened device file
2402 descriptor. The descriptor is otherwise leaked to other
2403 applications (mail sender) which may be considered a security
2404 risk and may result in AVC messages on SELinux-enabled systems.
2405 Thanks to: Tomá Smetana" <tsmetana@redhat.com>.
2407 [BA] smartd: when sending email, to gather information about the
2408 host for the body of the email, eliminate gethostbyname()
2409 in favor of the IPv6-friendly function getaddrinfo() if the
2410 latter is available. Info may be found here
2411 http://udrepper.livejournal.com/16116.html
2413 http://people.redhat.com/drepper/userapi-ipv6.html
2414 Thanks to: Tomá Smetana" <tsmetana@redhat.com>.
2416 Smartmontools developers: please check that smartd still LINKS
2417 properly on your systems.
2419 [BA] Fix ugly syntax bug in os_freebsd.cpp. How did this go
2420 undetected for so long??
2422 SMARTMONTOOLS STABLE RELEASE 5.38 2008/03/10
2424 [KS] Solaris/x86: modified configure.in for Sun's compiler.
2426 [BA] smartd.initd.in addition from Erwan Velu <erwan@seanodes.com>
2430 - On Linux, DEVICESCAN now automatically recognizes SATA devices
2431 behind libata, and SATA devices behind the Marvell driver, and
2432 treats them correctly.
2434 - On Linux, a '-d sat' or '-d marvell' is automatically added
2435 if libata or the marvell driver are recognized behind a SCSI
2438 [SS] (Maybe) fix attribute autosave in FreeBSD.
2440 [SS] Major NetBSD-specific bugfixes:
2441 - handle actual SCSI and ATA errors and not only ioctl() errors;
2442 - set up I/O request properly for AUTO_OFFLINE and AUTOSAVE commands (inspired by
2443 similar change in os_freebsd.cpp);
2444 - handle AUTO_OFFLINE and AUTOSAVE like STATUS_CHECK (like os_linux.cpp does).
2446 [GG] add kfreebsd gnu support to configure.in
2448 [BA] Fix auto-offline support in FreeBSD. Thanks to
2449 Cyrus Rahman <crahman@gmail.com> for the patch, and
2450 Eduard Martinescu for blessing it.
2452 [DG] smartd re-opens "SCSI" devices as ATA devices if a SAT layer is
2453 detected (smartd bug IMO). In Linux this upsets scsi generic
2454 device nodes (e.g. /dev/sg0). Detect the re-open in os_linux.cpp
2455 and set the O_RDWR flag (ATA uses the O_RDONLY flag).
2457 [CF] Drive database: Added Fujitsu MHW2 BH, Maxtor DiamondMax 17, 20, 21,
2458 Hitachi Travelstar 4K40, 5K120, 7K200, Deskstar 7K160, T7K500,
2459 T7K1000, Toshiba 1.8", Seagate Momentus 5400.3, 5400.3 ED, 7200.2,
2460 Barracuda 7200.11 and ES.
2461 Updated Toshiba 2.5", Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 and 7200.10.
2462 Added missing "(Hitachi )?" to Travelstar entries.
2464 [CF] Drive database: Added several Western Digital Caviar and Scorpio
2465 drives, added Caviar RE EIDE family.
2467 [CF] Drive database: Added Samsung P80 series with *-25 firmware.
2469 [CF] Replaced 'head [-n] -1' by 'sed 1...' in autogen.sh to avoid
2472 [BA] Fixed autogen.sh script so that it uses 'grep -n 1' if 'grep -1'
2473 fails. Needed for Mac OS X 10.4. Uck.
2475 [CF] Windows: Added IOCTL_STORAGE_PREDICT_FAILURE. This allows access
2476 to ATA SMART status and data if other calls do not work.
2477 Thanks to Jaroslaw Kowalski for pointing this out.
2478 Added support to use this function without admin rights.
2480 [CF] Added ATA-8 revision 4c message text.
2482 [CF] Added compiler.h to cciss_ioctl.h header check to prevent
2485 [SS] DragonFly support added (using os_freebsd code; untested).
2487 [CF] smartctl: Fixed ATA identify byte swapping issue on big-endian
2488 platforms. This regression was introduced by the change for
2489 '-F swapid'. Thanks to Matthew Butch for bug report and testing.
2491 [DG] SAT/SCSI: Improve SAT error processing code. Aborted commands from
2492 ATA devices (typically because SMART was disabled) were not being
2495 [GG] smartd: wait for the pid file to show up, return an error if it doesn't
2497 [JH] fix bad return code (get STATUS) for QNX Part
2499 [JH] initial porting to QNX Neutrino 6.3.2
2500 need at this time a prerelease devb-eide driver and libcam.so.2
2501 only tested for X86 Target, but devb-eide and lobcam.so.2 available for X86/ARM
2502 the officional driver coming soon with the next QNX release
2503 create two new source files os_qnxnto.[c..h]
2505 [CF] smartd: Added option '-n, --no-fork' so that smartd works
2506 better with modern init methods. Thanks to Enrico Scholz
2507 for the patch from 2005-12-24.
2509 [CF] Windows: Improved ATA/SCSI device type detection and
2510 DEVICESCAN. This also fixes a regression in 3ware DEVICESCAN.
2512 [CF] smartd: Don't start self tests in first pass to avoid
2513 performance problems during boot.
2514 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=192591
2516 [CF] Fixed regression in SMART STATUS command on Win9x/ME.
2518 [BA] Fixed 3ware issue with new controllers. Documentation said
2519 that one could address up to 24 disks on a single controller,
2520 but in fact one was limited to 16 disks. This is now fixed:
2521 up to 32 disks can be addressed. Thanks to Adam Radford.
2523 NOTE1: I have patched the Linux and FreeBSD code but not
2524 modified the Win32 code (it already supports up to 32 disks).
2526 NOTE2: NOT TESTED ON LINUX. Do not use this on a production box!
2527 I will remove this NOTE2 as soon as some positive test
2528 reports are recieved.
2530 NOTE3: NOT TESTED ON FREEBSD. Do not use this on a production box!
2531 I will remove this NOTE3 as soon as some positive test
2532 reports are recieved.
2534 [CF] Windows installer: Added explorer drive menu, CMD window,
2535 UBCD4Win plugin, smartd service update and other minor
2538 [CF] Windows: Modified drive letter handling for explorer drive
2539 context menu: try SCSI if type is unknown, allow 'X:\.' syntax.
2541 [CF] Windows: Added automatic ATA/SCSI device type detection and
2542 SCSI device scanning. The device names '/dev/sdX' and
2543 '/dev/pd<n>' now work for both ATA and SCSI disks.
2545 [CF] smartctl: Added ability to parse '-r ataioctl,2' output from
2546 stdin ('-') and simulate the ATA commands for testing purposes.
2548 [BA] SMART Attributes: added 187, 189, more accurate name for 190.
2550 [CF] Windows: Added drive letters 'X:' as alternate disk device names.
2552 [CF] smartctl: Added '-F swapid' to fix ATA identify string byte
2553 ordering. Added '-q noserial' to suppress serial number output.
2555 [CF] Windows: Added '/dev/n?st<n>' as alternate device names for SCSI
2556 tapes. These names are also used by Cygwin's /dev emulation layer.
2557 Thanks to Corinna Vinschen (Cygwin project lead) for pointing this
2560 [CF] Windows: Added IOCTL_SCSI_MINIPORT_*SMART* for commands not handled
2561 properly by SMART_IOCTL in disk class driver. This allows to use
2562 READ_LOG, WRITE_LOG and ABORT_SELFTEST even if the driver does not
2563 support ATA_PASS_THROUGH.
2565 [CF] Added ATA-8 revision 4, fixed WRITE LOG '-r ioctl' output.
2567 [BA] Updated smartctl and smartd so that they can be used with the latest
2568 3ware controllers which have 24 ports. Also updated docs.
2569 Thanks to Tim Bell at CERN.
2571 [GG] bit 4 in smartctl's return code might be set even when the dist check
2572 didn't return "DISK OK"
2574 [CF] Drive database: added '-F samsung3' for Samsung P80 firmware
2577 [SS] Applied patch from Dean Bennett to fix scheduled tests on
2578 Highpoint RAID controllers.
2580 [BA] Added patch from Tejun Heo http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/13222/focus=13235
2581 to fix broken auto-offline and auto-save via libata. Very clean fix: does it
2582 "the right way". Thanks Tejun!
2584 [CF] Added message text for ATA-7 self-test execution status 8
2585 ("... handling damage").
2587 [GG] cciss: support more than 16 disks (patch taken from
2588 http://cciss.sourceforge.net/smartmontools_cciss_more_than_16_drives.patch
2589 and adjusted for smartd)
2591 [DG] Solaris: [SCSI] add USCSI_RQENABLE flag to uscsi pass-through so
2592 sense buffer is made available. Expand reporting at this level.
2594 [GK] Darwin: Improve handling of powered-down drives.
2596 [SS] CCISS physical drive enumeration method changed (incompatibly).
2598 [CF] Fixed smartd crash on missing '-s' directive argument.
2600 [SS] Support CCISS on FreeBSD (kernel source is required until FreeBSD PR 109813
2603 [DG] SCSI/TAPE: some IBM tape drives don't react properly to a LOG
2604 SENSE with an allocation length of 4; work around for that case.
2606 [CF] Applied Guido's patch to fix CCISS LUN array bounds check
2607 (openSUSE bug #239956) and remove trailing spaces in
2610 [CF] Fixed 64-bit compilation issue in SCT status struct.
2612 [DG] SAT/SCSI: make real SCSI disks visible to DEVICESCAN in
2615 [CF] Fixed check of SCT temperature table size.
2617 [CF] Added ATA-8 draft revisions, added SCT status format 3.
2619 [CF] Drive database: added Samsung T166 series.
2621 [CF] ATA: Added ',p' option for '-t scttempint,N' to make
2624 [CF] ATA: Added '-t scttempint,N' option to set SCT temperature
2627 [CF] ATA: Added '-l scttemp[sts,hist]' options to print disk
2628 temperature information and history table provided by
2629 SMART Command Transport (SCT) Feature Set.
2631 [CF] ATA: Added '-t selective,{redo,next,cont}' commands to
2632 perform tests based on the last ranges still stored on
2633 disk. Added 'N+SIZE' and 'N-max' format for LBA range
2636 [CF] Added Min/Max Temperature format used in attribute 190 of
2637 recent Maxtor disks (DiamondMax 20).
2639 [CF] Linux: Added check for <linux/cciss_ioctl.h> to allow build
2640 (without CCISS support) also when this file is missing.
2642 [CF] Added -F samsung3 option to correct firmware bug reporting
2643 completed self-tests as still in progress. Thanks to Manfred
2644 Schwarb for the patch.
2646 [CF] Added missing const specifiers (undetected by gcc 3.4 and 4.X)
2647 to fix compilation with gcc 2.X.
2649 [CF] Linux: compile fix for SuSE, config.h must be included first.
2651 smartmontools 5.37 Experimental Release
2653 [CF] Windows: Added alternate method for (limited) monitoring of
2654 3ware controllers by parsing the output of CLI or 3DM.
2655 Either "tw_cli" can be run internally ("/dev/tw_cli/cx/py"),
2656 or data can be read from standard input ("/dev/tw_cli/stdin")
2657 or clipboard ("/dev/tw_cli/clip").
2659 [DG] Remove linux specific libata detect code; rely on general SAT
2660 code. smartd should now generate a sensible log message for
2661 ATA devices behind a SAT layer on all architectures.
2663 [BA] Increased max line length MAXLINELEN for /etc/smartd.conf from
2664 128 to 256 characters to handle long strings in
2665 /dev/disk/by-id. Thanks to Martin Krafft.
2667 [PW] Drive database: added missing drives from Seagate Momentus 5400.2
2670 [BA] Finished Christian's fix (next item below) by removing
2671 LINUX_86_64 hack from configure.in.
2673 [CF] Fixed inclusion of PRI?64 macros from inttypes.h.
2675 [CF] Windows: Added WRITE LOG to support selective self tests.
2677 [CF] Fix selective self test log revision number if '-T permissive'
2678 is specified (Tested with Samsung HD401LJ).
2680 [CF] Windows: Fixed int64 printf format for MinGW runtime.
2682 [PW] Drive database: added Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 family, Seagate
2683 Momentus 42 family, Maxtor DiamondMax 60 ATA 66 family, Maxtor

2688 7200.9 family, Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 family, Seagate Momentus
2689 7200.1 family, Toshiba 2.5" HDD family (80 GB and above), Western
2690 Digital Caviar RE Serial ATA family, Hitachi Deskstar 7K80 family,
2691 and Maxtor DiamondMax 4320 Ultra ATA family
2693 [BA] Linux: compile fix for SuSE. Check for existence
2694 of linux/compiler.h and include in os_linux.h if
2695 present. Thanks to SB.
2697 [BA] smartd: DEVICESCAN will now pick up SATA/SAT devices
2698 attached to a SCSI device tree via SAT translation.
2699 Note: this is a bit of a hack. I will document it once
2700 I know if this needs to be Linux only or can have more
2701 general application.
2703 [BA] Added a couple SATA commands to the tables -- thanks DG!
2704 Phil -- how about going through and systematically adding
2705 these new commands to atacmdnames.cpp?
2707 [BA] Linux s86_64: get rid of some compiler warnings on
2708 x86_64 Linux systems.
2710 [CF] Windows: Added missing support for READ_LOG, ABORT_SELFTEST
2711 and CHECK_POWER_STATE for 3ware 9000 controllers. Thanks to
2712 Greg de Valois for implementing this new ioctl in the driver.
2714 [PW] Drive database: added Seagate NL35 SATA family. Thanks to Kai
2715 Harrekilde-Petersen for providing a patch.

2735 [CF] Drive database: added Samsung P80 series, P120 series, SP8004H
2738 [GG] Add CCISS (Compaq Smart Array Controller) support with contributions
2739 from Praveen Chidambaram, Douglas Gilbert, Guido Guenther and Frédéric
2742 [PW] Drive database: added Hitachi Deskstar T7K250 and Hitachi
2743 Deskstar 7K500 series. Thanks to L. J. Wu for providing a
2746 [PW] Drive database: added Maxtor MaXLine III family, Seagate U7
2747 family, Seagate ST34321A, FUJITSU MHM2060AT, FUJITSU MHT2040AS,
2748 Western Digital Caviar SE16 family, IBM Travelstar 4GT family,

2750 MK1032GAX, TOSHIBA MK4026GAX
2752 [PW] Drive database: added missing drives from Western Digital Caviar
2753 SE (Serial ATA) and WD Raptor families
2755 [CF] Windows: Added support for 3ware 9000 controllers using extended
2756 SMART functionality in new 3ware driver. This includes DEVICESCAN
2757 support for at most 2 controllers. Thanks to Greg de Valois from
2758 AMCC/3ware for new driver features, development support and
2759 hardware for testing.
2761 [SZ] smartd: Support HighPoint RocketRAID controller under GNU/linux
2763 [DG] [SCSI] First cut for '-l background' to show background scan
2766 [SZ] smartctl: Support HighPoint RocketRAID controller under GNU/linux
2768 [KS] C++ compile fixes for Solaris with a few cleanups.
2770 [BA] C++ compile fixes for Darwin (thanks to CF)
2772 [CF] Removed old *.c files (now in CVS Attic).
2774 [CF] Added changes for C++ to platform independent and Windows
2777 [BA] Tagged last .c Version with PRE_MOVE_TO_CPP. Copied *.c,v
2778 to *.cpp,v in CVS repository to preserve history of source
2779 files. Removed sm5_Darwin repository.
2781 [CF] smartctl: Added -n option to skip checks when disk is in
2784 [CF] Windows: Added alternate system call for power state check
2785 because the PASS THROUGH calls may spin up the disk.
2787 [CF] smartd: Modified power state logging to report state changes
2788 instead of standby condition.
2790 [CF] smartd: Ignore -n directive on scheduled self tests.
2792 [DG] [SCSI] Make start stop cycle counter log page decoding
2795 [DG] Modify smartctl (but not smartd) to detect probable ATA
2796 devices behind a SAT layer. In the absence of an explicit
2797 device type, change to device type 'sat'.
2799 [DG] Add indication that controller (device) type has been
2800 explicitly set. Preparation for automatic detection of
2801 'sat' device type unless user specifies a device type.
2803 [SS] NetBSD: Deliver strings from ata_identify_device properly
2804 on little- and big-endian platforms.
2806 [BA] Added published ANSI ATA-7 spec to list of recognized ATA
2809 [BA] Code janitor: added missing header strings for '-V' option.
2811 [DG] [SATA] Extend 'sat' device type to allow either 12 or 16 byte
2812 variant of the SAT ATA PASS THROUGH SCSI command. Syntax is
2813 '-d sat,<n>' where <n> can be 0, 12 or 16 . The ',<n>' part
2814 is optional. Currently defaults to 16 byte variant but that
2815 could be made platform or even device dependent.
2817 [DG] [SATA] Add new 'sat' device type for SATA disks behind a
2818 SCSI to ATA Translation (SAT) Layer (SATL). Uses the ATA
2819 PASS THROUGH (16) SCSI command thence the generic SCSI
2820 passthrough for each platform.
2822 [CF] Windows: Added script and make targets to create installer
2823 with NSIS (http://nsis.sourceforge.net/)
2825 [CF] Updated hostname and links for new SourceForge CVS service.
2827 [CF] smartd: Added '-W' directive to track temperature changes
2828 and warn if temperature limits are reached.
2830 [CF] Windows: Added IOCTL_ATA_PASS_THROUGH (Win2003, XP SP2)
2831 for commands unsupported by SMART_IOCTL. Added device
2832 specific options to select subset and ordering of the ATA
2833 IOCTLs actually used. These options are specified as
2834 modifiers of the device name (/dev/hd[a-j]:[saic]+)
2836 [CF] Windows: Added support for drives 4-7 (/dev/hd[e-h]) via
2837 SMARTVSE.VXD on Win9x/ME. Thanks to Dariusz Rzonca for
2840 [DG] [SCSI/SATA linux] from lk 2.6.17 SATA disk identification in
2841 libata will change. Expand LibAta detection to see old
2842 identifier and new variant (VPD page 0x83).
2844 [BA] Identified Attribute 190 for Western Digital disks. This
2845 stores temperature in Celsius, just like Attribute 194.
2846 But it has a failure threshold set to correspond to the
2847 maximum design operating temperature of the disk, which
2848 is 55 Celsius on the WD800JD drives that I studied.
2849 So if this Attribute has 'failed
2850 in the past' this means that the maximum disk operating
2851 temperature has been exceeded.
2853 [GK] Darwin: Add support for AHCI drivers found in Intel-based Macs.
2855 smartmontools 5.36 Stable Release
2857 [BA] Linux: smartd/smartctl issue syntax hints to user if 3ware
2858 disk controller present with EITHER 3ware OR AMCC vendor
2859 name, and user syntax incorrect.
2861 [BA] Update copyright dates to 2006.
2863 [DG] [SCSI] Loosen sanity check on Seagate/Hitachi factory information
2864 log page so it is not skipped on recent Seagate SCSI disks.
2866 [CF] Added command 'smartd -q showtests' to list test schedules.
2868 [CF] Added command 'smartctl -P showall MODEL [FIRMWARE]' to list
2869 database entries for specific drives and firmware.
2871 [PW] Automatically set -v 9,minutes and -v 194,unknown for Maxtor

2887 [DG] [SCSI] Mask dpofua bit when changing mode pages. Fix failure
2888 of 'smartctl -l error'.
2890 [EM] Fixed a problem with FreeBSD and 3Ware 'twe' devices
2892 [CF] Fixed a regexp in knowndrives table, added regexp syntax check
2893 via 'smartctl -P showall'.
2895 [CF] Cygwin & Windows: Fixed memory leak in function calling

2951 [CF] Cygwin smartd: Added FreeConsole() after fork() to avoid hang
2952 of terminated shell console window.
2954 [DG] [SCSI] Add code so 'smartctl -A' outputs the number of elements
2955 in the grown defect list. When this number is increasing a
2956 disk has problems. N.B. Similar logic should be added to smartd.
2958 [CF] Windows smartd: Fixed event handling to allow start of another
2959 smartd process when service is already running. Useful for testing
2960 service configuration changes in debug mode.
2962 [PW] Added following drives to knowndrives table: Western Digital Raptor

2973 Mike Fleetwood for submitting the patch.
2975 [KS] Solaris/SPARC: fixed not to disable automatic offline test and
2976 automatic save attributes incorrectly. Thanks to Roy Badami.
2978 [BA] Linux: smartd init script now recognizes 'trustix' distro.
2980 [DG] [SCSI] Medium and hardware errors were slipping through
2981 unreported. Fix linux SCSI sense reporting via SG_IO ioctl.
2983 [DG] [SCSI] Change lba of first failure in selftest output to
2984 decimal (was hex) to conform with ATA output.
2986 [GK] smartd: Detect most self-test failures even if the hour counter
2989 [BA] smartctl: list 'marvell' as option if user give invalid
2992 [CF] Windows: fixed SCSI timeout handling to allow long timeouts
2995 [CF] Fixed buffer overflow issues in printone() and safe_vsnprintf()
2996 which results in crash on -V option (at least on Windows).
2998 [DG] [SCSI] Add explicit timeouts to INQUIRY and REQUEST SENSE (that
2999 were missed in an earlier patch). Could have impacted freebsd.
3001 [DG] When linux detects a sata_via_libata disk suggest that user try
3002 '-d ata' (rather then '-d libata). Anticipate kernel change.
3004 [YD] Added OS/2 and eComStation platform support.
3006 [PW] Added Seagate U4 family, Fujitsu MHJ and MHK families, Seagate
3007 Barracuda 5400.1, QUANTUM FIREBALLP KX27.3, QUANTUM FIREBALLP KA10.1,
3008 and ExcelStor J340 to knowndrives table.
3010 [DG] [SCSI] After report of Hitachi IC35L073UCDY10 disks locking up
3011 on log page 0x7 (last n error events), check log page (and some
3012 others) is supported (via log page 0x0) before probing.
3014 [CF] Added safe_v?snprintf() for platforms using v?snprintf()
3015 with non standard behaviour on overflow (Windows, old Linux)
3017 [CF] smartd: Added message if check power mode spins up disk.
3019 [CF] Windows: Added support for READ_LOG on WinNT4 using undocumented
3020 pseudo SCSI command via IOCTL_SCSI_PASS_THROUGH.
3022 [CF] smartd: Added ',q' option for '-n' directive to suppress 'skipping
3023 checks' log message. This prevents a laptop disk from spinning up
3024 due to this message. Thanks to Rob MacLachlan and Manfred Schwarb
3025 for pointing out problem & solution.
3027 [CF] Windows: Added function get_os_version_str() to show OS flavor in

3041 Western Digital Caviar WDxxxAA/WDxxxBA drives to knowndrives table.
3043 [CF] Windows: Added ATA check power mode for smartd -n directive.
3045 [CF] Windows: Fixed use of new service status flag which causes hang
3046 of smartd service on WinNT4.
3048 [CF] Windows: Fixed error checking of IOCTL_IDE_PASS_THROUGH (used
3049 for READ_LOG on 2000/XP). Added some diagnostic messages on
3050 -r ataioctl[,2]. Thanks to Manfred Schwarb for bug report and testing.
3052 [BA] Fixed code bug that made it impossible to enable SMART on
3053 disks with failing health status. This would happen if the
3054 os_*.c author made STATUS and STATUS_CHECK work the same way.
3055 I have corrected this at a higher level; we now handle the
3056 case where STATUS and STATUS_CHECK are identical without
3059 [LW] Make os_linux.c/marvell_command_interface() always return 0 on STATUS.
3060 Needed for a disk having bad SMART status.
3062 [CF] smartctl: Added drive family printing.
3064 [CF] autogen.sh: Allow automake 1.9, added message if automake
3067 [BA] smartctl: use locale-specific separators for printing disk
3068 capacity. Also use AC_CHECK_HEADERS not AC_CHECK_HEADER in
3071 [BA] clean-up of #include structure so that -V options to smartd
3072 and smartctl work correctly. Please, don't #include header
3073 files into other header files.
3075 smartmontools 5.33 Experimental Release
3077 [BA] smartctl: ATA disks, if SMART ATTRIBUTE THRESHOLDS page has ID
3078 errors with some Attributes having NULL IDs, print Attribute
3079 info anyway (but issuing a warning to the user).
3081 [DG] [SCSI] Decode Last n error events log page; decode track following
3082 and positioning errors [Hitachi]
3084 [EM] FreeBSD: another tweak, __packed__ introduced in Version 5.0040
3086 [EM] Cleaner tweak of fixes for FreeBSD 4.x.
3088 [EM] Fix compilation errors under FreeBSD 4.x, as it is still using
3091 [EM] Remove 3ware/FreeBSD specific files and just include pieces we need
3093 [DG] Add logic in smartd to detect 3ware, Marvell controllers and SATA
3094 disks behind an ATA-SCSI simulator (in Linux). If specific device
3095 types are not given and they are picked in a general SCSI device
3096 scan then warn and skip.
3098 [GG] insert correct path to smartd into smartd's init script
3100 [BA] Changed all default paths in documentation to reflect /usr/local as
3101 default path prefix. This affects on-line man pages, primarily.
3103 [DS] Added support for OpenBSD
3105 [BA] Added another environment variable SMART_FULLMESSAGE set by
3106 the smartd mailing feature, and modified examplescripts/Example1

3112 [DG] emit warning if SATA disk detected using libata in Linux; then exit
3114 [PW] Added Seagate U10 family, Hitachi Travelstar 7K60, Fujitsu MHR2020AT,
3115 and QUANTUM FIREBALLP AS20.5 to knowndrives table.
3117 [DG] Detect 3ware and Marvell controllers from SCSI INQUIRY vendor string
3118 and suggest usage of appropriate '-d' argument in smartctl.
3120 [LW] Tested the RELEASE_5_33_WITH_MARVELL_SUPPORT branch on
3121 actual Marvell 88SX5041 hardware, with success.
3124 [BA] Fixed nasty DEVICESCAN bug
3126 [BA] Checked in RELEASE_5_33_WITH_MARVELL_SUPPORT branch with
3127 some Marvell support.
3129 [BA] Additional modifications of Ed's controller scheme. Fixed
3130 broken 3ware support under linux, problems with scanning
3131 devices in smartd, and other small problems.
3133 [CF] Added make targets to build formatted man pages (htmlman, txtman),
3134 Windows distribution (dist-win32) and MSVC6 config.h (config-vc6).
3136 [EM] Minor change to FreeBSD inclusion of 'twe' include files. Add
3137 code to check if they exising in /usr/include/sys to use those
3138 in preference to ones added here
3140 [EM] Very preliminary support attempt for 3Ware controllers under
3141 FreeBSD. Also, switched 'escalade_type/escalade_port' to
3142 'controler_type/controller_port' and moved away from
3143 'tryata/tryscsi' to using new 'controller*' variables to
3144 determine which controller type (ATA/SCSI/3Ware) to use.
3146 [GK] Added initscript support for Darwin.
3148 [CF] Windows smartd: Added ability to run smartd as a windows service,
3149 including new commands "smartd install ..." and "smartd remove"
3150 to install and remove the service registry entry.
3152 [BA] smartd: warn user if -s regexp regular expression contains
3153 characters other than 0123456789.*()|+?[-]{}:=SLCO since such
3154 characters are 'suspicous' and may indicate a poorly formed
3155 regexp. Extended regular expression gurus: can this list be
3158 [CF] Fixed bug in Windows smartd: Missing close of config file when
3159 configuration is reloaded by smartd daemon.
3161 [CF] Windows smartd: Added mail warning feature using the "Blat"
3162 (http://blat.sourceforge.net/) mailer as a default.
3164 [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 5120 Ultra ATA 33 series and TOSHIBA
3165 MK3017GAP to knowndrives table.
3167 [CF] Added fixes to build smartmontools on old Linux systems
3168 (libc < 6, Kernel 2.0.x).
3170 [BA] Added ATA minor version identity strings for latest ATA specification
3171 updates: ATA/ATAPI-7 T13 1532D revision 4a and ATA/ATAPI-6 published,
3172 ANSI INCITS 361-2002

3183 Thanks to [GK/CF] for problem & solution.
3185 [GK] Added os_darwin.[ch]
3187 [PW] Added the following drives to the knowndrives table: IBM Travelstar
3188 48GH, 30GN, and 15GN family; IBM Deskstar 37GP and 34GXP family;
3189 Western Digital WDC WD272AA; Maxtor DiamondMax D540X-4D family;
3190 TOSHIBA MK2016GAP, MK2018GAP, MK2018GAS, MK2023GAS; and
3191 QUANTUM FIREBALL ST3.2A
3193 [BA] smartd/smarctl now print build HOST/OS information as part
3194 of startup slogan. This should make it slightly easier to
3195 read bug reports from users.
3197 [RZ] Fixed the DEVICESCAN to do what it was supposed to do - give
3198 error message unless scanning is in progress.
3200 [BA] Update documentation to describe 3ware character devices. Better
3201 error detection for missing/malfunctioning devices behind 3ware
3202 controllers. Now pack 3ware ioctl structures explicitly.
3204 [BA] For ATA devices that support LBA mode, print capacity as part
3207 [RZ] Made DEVICESCAN quiet about non-existing devices unless debug
3210 [DG] treat "unit attention" SCSI warning as try again in some contexts
3211 (test unit ready and mode sense)
3213 [BA] on drives that store max/min rather than min/max, get order
3214 correct in printing temp.
3216 [BA] fixed typo in 'smartctl -h' output. Thanks to Gabor Z. Papp.
3218 [BA] linux: clean-up to 3ware/AMCC support; dynamically create
3219 or fix /dev/tw[ae][0-15] device node entries if they don't
3220 exist or are incorrect. One can now use the character devices
3221 /dev/twe[0-15] OR /dev/sd? for 3ware 6000/7000/8000 series
3222 cards. One must use /dev/twa[0-15] for 3ware 9000 series cards.
3223 Note that selective self-tests now work via /dev/tw[ae] devices.
3224 Next step: documentation.
3226 [BA] linux: experimental "support" for 3ware/AMCC 9000 series
3227 controllers that use the 3w-9xxx driver. This will be in a
3228 state of flux for a few days. Note that this requires the
3229 character interface /dev/twa[0-15].
3231 [DG] linux: extend general SCSI OS interface to use the SG_IO ioctl. If
3232 not available, use the older SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND ioctl.
3234 [KS] Solaris/x86: fixed system identification problem in configure
3235 script. Thanks to Stuart Swales.
3239 [BA] Update link to revised/updated IBM Deskstar Firmware
3241 [CF] Cygwin & Windows: Added missing ASPI manager initialization
3242 with GetASPI32SupportInfo(). Thanks to Nikolai SAOUKH for pointing
3243 this out and providing a patch.
3245 [BA] modified smartd init script to work on whitebox (thanks to
3248 [BA] removed (reverted) additional Attribute definitions from
3249 http://smart.friko.pl/attributes.php. All (or most?) of these
3250 appear to be return code values for the WD Digital Life Guard Utility.
3252 [PW] Added Seagate Medalist 17242, 13032, 10232, 8422, and 4312 to
3253 knowndrives table. Added missing Seagate U Series 5 drives.

3256 FIREBALL EX6.4A, FIREBALLP AS10.2, FIREBALLP AS40.0, FIREBALL CR4.3A,
3257 FIREBALLP LM15, FIREBALLP LM30, and FIREBALLlct20 30
3259 [PW] Added missing Western Digital Protege drives to knowndrives table.
3261 [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax 40 ATA 66 series and DiamondMax 40 VL Ultra
3262 ATA 100 series to knowndrives table.
3264 [PW] Added the following Hitachi/IBM drives to knowndrives table:
3265 HITACHI_DK14FA-20B, Travelstar 40GNX series, Travelstar 4LP series,
3266 and Travelstar DK23XXB series. Added the missing Travelstar 80GN
3269 [PW] Added Fujitsu MPB series and MPG series to knowndrives table. Added
3270 the missing Fujitsu MHSxxxxAT drives.
3272 [KS] Solaris: added workaround for dynamic change of time-zone.
3274 [KS] Solaris: fixed problem that autogen.sh cannot detect absence of
3277 [BA] smartd: added time-zone bug information to man page.
3278 Reverted CF code for _WIN32 case.
3280 [CF] Cygwin & Windows: Added better error messages on IDE/ATA device
3283 [BA] added additional Attribute definitions from
3284 http://smart.friko.pl/attributes.php
3286 [BA] smartd: reworked TimeZone bug workaround so it is only invoked
3287 for glibc. Note: this might not be right -- a similar bug may
3288 exist in other platform's libcs.
3290 [DG] SCSI smartmontools documentation updated [2004/5/6]. See:
3291 http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/smartmontools_scsi.html
3293 [CF] Windows: Fixed reset of TZ=GMT in glibc timezone bug workaround.
3297 [DG] move SCSI device temperature and start-stop log page output
3298 (smartctl) into --attributes section (was in --info section).
3300 [GG] change default installation location to /usr/local
3302 [CF] Cygwin smartd: Fixed crash on access of SCSI devices after fork().
3304 [PW] Added TOSHIBA MK4018GAS and the following Maxtor drive families
3305 to knowndrives table: DiamondMax D540X-4G, Fireball 541DX,
3306 DiamondMax 3400 Ultra ATA, DiamondMax Plus 6800 Ultra ATA 66.
3308 [PW] Added missing Maxtor DiamondMax 16, DiamondMax D540X-4K, and
3309 DiamondMax Plus 45 Ulta ATA 100 drives to knowndrives table.
3311 [PW] Added ExcelStor J240, Hitachi Travelstar 80GN family, Fujitsu
3312 MHTxxxxAT family, and IBM Deskstar 25GP and 22GXP families to
3315 [CF] Cygwin smartd: Added workaround for missing SIGQUIT via keyboard:
3316 To exit smartd in debug mode, type CONTROL-C twice.
3318 [BA] smartctl: printing of the selective self-test log is now
3319 controlled by a new option: -l selective
3321 [BA] Added entries for Samsung firmware versions -25 to -39 based
3322 on latest info about firmware bug fixes.
3324 [PW] Added Seagate U Series X family, Seagate U8 family, and Seagate
3325 Medalist 8641 family to knowndrives table.
3327 [CF] smartd: Added exit values 5/6 for missing/unreadable config file.
3329 [BA] smartd: now monitor the Current Pending Sector count (Attribute 197)
3330 and the Offline Pending Sector Count (Attribute 198). Log a
3331 warning (and send an email, if so configured) if the raw count
3332 is nonzero. These are controlled by new Directives: -C and -U.
3333 Currently they are enabled by default.
3335 [CF] Added option -c FILE, --configfile=FILE to smartd to specify
3336 an alternate configuration FILE or '-' for standard input.
3338 [KS] configure.in now searches for -lnsl and -lsocket for Solaris.
3340 [CF] Win32/native smartd: Added thread to combine several syslog output
3341 lines into one single event log entry.
3343 [CF] Win32 smartd: Added DEVICESCAN for SCSI/ASPI devices.
3345 [GG] Use gethostbyname() the get the DNS domain since getdomainname()
3346 returns the NIS domain when sending mails from smartd.
3348 [GG] smartd.init.in: pass smartd_opts to smartd on startup, read distribution
3349 specific configuration files if found
3351 [SS] smartctl: added NetBSD support for Selective Self-tests.
3353 [BA] smartd.conf example configuration file now has all examples
3354 commented out except for 'DEVICESCAN'.
3356 [CF] Win32/native smartd: Added ability to display warning "emails"
3357 as message box by "-m msgbox" directive. With "-m sysmsgbox",
3358 a system modal (always on top) message box is shown.
3360 [BA] smartctl: printing of self-test log for disks that support
3361 Selective self-testing now shows the status of the (optional)
3362 read-scan after the selective self test. Also, changed format
3363 in printing self-test log to print failing LBA in base 10 not
3364 base 16 (more compatible with kernel error messages). Also,
3365 in printing SMART error log, print timestamps in format
3366 days+hours+minutes+seconds.
3368 [CF] Win32 smartd: Added ability to log to stdout/stderr
3369 (-l local1/2). Toggling debug console still works
3370 if stdout is redirected.
3372 [BA] smartctl: selective self-test log, print current status
3373 in a more detailed way. Allow writing of selective self-test
3374 log provided that no other self-test is underway.
3376 [BA] Linux: eliminated dependency on kernel tree hdreg.h.
3378 [BA] smartctl: -l selftest option now prints Selective self-test
3379 log in addition to the normal self-test log.
3380 Added additional options (-t pending, -t afterselect) to
3381 control remaining Selective Self-test capabilities. Tested
3382 with several Maxtor disks. Modified error message printing
3383 so that munged option messages print at the end not the
3386 [CF] Added daemon support to Win32 native version of smartd.
3387 The daemon can be controlled by commands similar to initd
3388 scripts: "smartd status|stop|reload|restart|sigusr1|sigusr2".
3390 [CF] Added minor support for option "-l local[0-7]" to Win32 native
3391 (not Cygwin) version of smartd. If specified, the log output
3392 is written to file "./smartd[1-7]?.log" instead of event log.
3394 [BA] Added Selective Self-test to smartctl (-t selective,M-N).
3395 Currently only supported under Linux; Solaris, NetBSD, FreeBSD
3396 and Windows developers must add WRITE LOG functionality to
3399 [BA] Added workaround for an annoying glibc bug: if you change
3400 timezones, (eg, flying with a laptop from USA to Europe)
3401 localtime() does not notice this in a running
3402 executable, so time that appears in the system log (syslog!)
3403 will be incorrect. See
3404 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=48184
3405 for additional examples of this bug.
3407 [DG] Set explicit timeouts for SCSI commands (most default to 6 seconds).
3408 Previously a 0 second timeout was meant to be interpreted as a
3409 default timeout but the FreeBSD port had a problem in this area.
3411 [CF] Fixed un-thread-safe exit signal handler for Win32
3413 [BA] Fixed un-thread-safe exit signal handler pointed out
3416 [BA] Changed configure script to eliminate warnings under
3417 Solaris from sys/int_type.h conflicts with int64.h
3418 Added header files for umask to smartd.c.
3420 [BA] Man page format change from Werner LEMBERG. " " changed to \&
3422 [CF] Added os_win32/syslogevt.* event message file tool for Win32
3423 smartd (native+cygwin). May also be useful for other cygwin
3424 programs writing to syslog().
3426 [CF] Added Win32 version of smartd
3428 [CF] Merged RELEASE_5_26_WIN32_BRANCH
3430 [BA] Made some changes to man page markup suggested by
3431 Richard Verhoeven to work around bugs in man2html.
3432 Tested not to break anything under Linux and Solaris.
3434 [CF] Moved PrintOut() from utility.c to smart{ctl,d}.c to avoid
3435 syslog() output of smartctl.
3437 [BA] Grew worried that some time-zone names could be very long (eg,
3438 Mitteleuropaische Zeit) and put date string lengths into a
3439 single macro in utility.c
3441 [EM] Updated os_freebsd.c to handle older versions of FreeBSD in a
3442 more appropriate/obvious fashion.
3444 [EM] Modified autogen.sh as FreeBSD installs automake 1.7 as
3445 'automake17' and NOT 'automake-1.7'
3449 [PW] Added QUANTUM FIREBALLlct15 30, QUANTUM FIREBALLlct20 40, and
3450 Maxtor 6Y060P0 (DiamondMax Plus 9 60GB) to knowndrives table.
3452 [PW] Added Maxtor MaXLine II family to knowndrives table (thanks to
3453 Brett Russ for submitting the patch).
3455 [BA] Added remaining read/write commands to detailed list of
3456 error log commands that have text descriptions of problem
3457 printed. For commands that support it, print number of failed
3458 sectors at problem LBA.
3460 [BA] Made SuSE section of smartd init script more SuSE 9 compatible.
3461 Thanks to Hans-Peter Jansen.
3463 [CF] Windows smartd: Added IDE/ATA device scan
3464 Added windows device names to smartctl.8.in, smartd.8.in
3466 [BA] smartctl/smartd: user-provided '-F samsung' and '-F samsung2'
3467 command line options/Directives did NOT over-ride preset values
3468 unless user specified '-P ignore'. Now they will always over-ride
3469 preset values from the database.
3471 [BA] Added error decoding for a few more READ and WRITE commands.
3473 [PW] Added Maxtor MaXLine Plus II, Western Digital Caviar SE (Serial ATA)
3474 series, Hitachi Deskstar 7K250 series, and Ultra ATA 66 models of
3475 the Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 40 series to knowndrives table.
3477 [BA] Added Maxtor Diamondmax 250 GB drives to database. Note that
3478 these model numbers are not listed in Maxtor documentation, but
3481 [BA] Removed the 'contact developers' phrase from the Samsung disk
3484 [PW] Added TOSHIBA MK2017GAP, IBM Deskstar 14GXP and 16GP series,
3485 Fujitsu MPC series, Seagate Barracuda ATA III family, and missing
3486 Seagate Barracuda U Series drives to knowndrives table
3488 [BA] smartd: wrong loglevel for message: Configuration file
3489 /etc/smartd.conf parsed. Changed to LOG_INFO from LOG_CRIT.
3490 Thanks to Emmanuel CHANTREAU for the report.
3492 [CF] Checked in development version of windows code base.
3494 smartmontools 5.29 (note: there was NO 5.28 release)
3496 [BA] smartd: configure script did not set correct directory to search for
3497 smartd.conf based on --prefix argument to ./configure. Thanks to
3498 GG for identifying the problem and fix.
3500 [BA] make clean now removes man pages (generated from *.in) files as well
3503 [EM] Correct copying of sense data in FreeBSD SCSI implementation. Thanks
3504 to Sergey Svishchev for noticing the bug.
3506 [BA] On solaris, wrong warning message if no ATA support. Warning message
3507 concerns 3ware controller, not ATA.
3509 [SS] Added SCSI support for NetBSD.
3511 [BA] on big-endian linux machines, fixed interpretation of HDIO_GET_IDENTITY
3512 to correctly identify ATAPI bit (was byte swapped). This should
3513 eliminate some SYSLOG noise if user queries a packet device (eg, CD
3516 [PW] Removed warning for IBM Deskstar 40GV & 75GXP series drives with
3517 A5AA/A6AA firmware. Thanks to Gerald Schnabel.
3519 [PW] Added Toshiba TOS MK3019GAXB SUN30G to knowndrives table
3521 [PW] Added Western Digital Caviar AC12500, AC24300, AC25100, AC36400,
3522 and AC38400 to knowndrives table
3524 [BA] When printing ATA error log, print the LBA at which READ
3525 or WRITE commands failed.
3527 [BA] Changed syntax of error message in smartctl
3529 [BA] Added versioning info (-V options to smartd/smartctl) for
3534 [KS] Added ATA/IDE support for Solaris/SPARC (ATA/IDE not yet for
3537 [BA] 3ware controllers: documented that one can monitor any of the
3538 physical disks from any of the 3ware /dev/sd? logical devices.
3539 Better warnings if querying a disk that does not exist.
3541 [PW] Added Hitachi Travelstar DK23DA series, Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 40
3542 series, Western Digital Caviar WDxxxAA, WDxxxBA, and WDxxxAB series
3543 to knowndrives table
3545 [BA] missing 'pragma pack' on ATA IDENTIFY DEVICE structure may have
3546 caused odd or incorrect results on 64-bit machines.
3548 [BA] smartctl/smartd allow inspection of self-test and error logs even
3549 if disk firmware claims that these don't exist. This is needed
3550 for some Maxtor disks whose firmware does not indicate log support
3551 even though the disk DOES support it.
3553 [BA] Improved porting instructions and documentation in os_generic.c
3555 [PW] Add Western Digital Caviar WD136AA and SAMSUNG SP40A2H (RR100-07
3556 firmware) to knowndrives table.
3558 [EM] FreeBSD: remove extra definition of FreeNonZero
3560 [BA] smartctl: the -q silent option was printing output for some
3561 error conditions. Fixed. Will rename relevant variables to help
3562 avoid these errors in the future.
3564 [SS] NetBSD port added.
3566 [BA] more sensible error messages for devfs and devfs-like systems.
3567 Instead of saying that the DIRECTORY does not exist, say that
3568 the DEVICE does not exist.
3570 [BA] smartd: added -n Directive, to prevent disk spin-up depending
3571 upon the power mode (SLEEP, STANDBY, or IDLE).
3573 [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax 20 VL series, Fujitsu MPF series,
3574 Maxtor DiamondMax 36 series, Maxtor DiamondMax 4320 series, and
3575 Maxtor DiamondMax 536DX series to knowndrives table.
3577 [BA] many warning messages now give the file name AND VERSION
3579 [BA] smartd: when the user provides multiple address recipients
3580 to the '-m' Directive in a comma-delineated list, the commas
3581 are stripped out before passing the list of addresses to the
3582 mailer program. (Thanks to Calin A. Culianu for pointing this out
3583 and providing a patch.)
3585 [BA] smartd: when the '-M exec path' Directive is used, any stdout OR
3586 stderr output from the executable "path" is assumed to indicate a
3587 problem, and is echoed to SYSLOG.
3589 [BA] Added all missing IBM/Hitachi Deskstar 180GXP models to knowndrives
3592 [PW] Added some missing IBM/Hitachi Deskstar 120GXP models to knowndrives
3595 [PW] Added IBM Travelstar 14GS to knowndrives table.
3597 [PW] Modified knowndrives table to match entire Hitachi Travelstar
3598 DK23BA and DK23EA series of drives (thanks to Norikatsu Shigemura
3599 for submitting the patch).
3601 [PW] Added some missing Fujitsu MPE series drives to knowndrives table.
3603 [PW] Added TOSHIBA MK4019GAX, TOSHIBA MK6409MAV, and QUANTUM
3604 FIREBALLlct15 20 to knowndrives table.
3606 [EM] Fixup example command output for FreeBSD
3608 [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax 80 family to knowndrives table.
3610 [EM] Catch up FreeBSD code to switch PROJECTHOME to PACKAGE_HOMEPAGE
3613 [BA] smartd: now watches stdout/stderr when trying to run mail, mailx
3614 or mail warning script, and reports any output to SYSLOG. This
3615 gives a clearer error message if something is wrong.
3617 [BA] smartd: Solaris init script modified to accomodate grep that
3618 lacks '-q' quiet option. Also check for running process to kill
3621 [PW] Added some missing Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 and 7200.7 Plus drives
3622 to knowndrives table.
3624 [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 60 family and Seagate U Series 5 20413
3625 to knowndrives table.
3627 [BA] smartd: under Solaris, made default mailer be 'mailx' not
3628 'mail', since Solaris 'mail' does not accept a '-s' argument.
3629 A workaround for Solaris users of earlier versions is to
3630 have '-M exec /bin/mailx' in their smartd.conf config file.
3632 [DG] some SCSI controllers don't like odd length transfers so make
3633 sure LOG SENSE transfers are rounded up to an even number when
3634 and odd length is reported (i.e. there is a double fetch, the
3635 first to find the length, the second gets the data)
3637 [BA] smartd man pages: under Solaris, correct section numbers in the
3640 [KS/BA] smartd man page: describe how to set Solaris syslog.conf
3641 file to catch all messages. Give correct Solaris SYSLOG default
3642 path /var/adm/messages in man pages.
3644 [BA] smartd: incorporated Debian startup script submitted by user.
3646 [BA] smartctl: modified printing of self-test log entry number. Seagate
3647 firmware can leave 'holes' in the self-test log while a test is
3648 actually running. We now print entry numbers consistently in this
3649 case, not assuming that entries are contiguous.
3651 [PW] Added QUANTUM FIREBALL CX10.2A and Western Digital Caviar AC23200L
3652 to knowndrives table.
3654 [PW] Added QUANTUM FIREBALLlct20 20 to knowndrives table.
3656 [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax Plus D740X family to knowndrives table.
3658 [PW] Added IBM Travelstar 32GH, 30GT, and 20GN family to knowndrives
3661 [BA] Slackware init script modified to search for /etc/slackware-version
3662 rather than /etc/slackware-release.
3664 [PW] Added Seagate Barracuda ATA II family and TOSHIBA MK4019GAXB to
3667 [GG] explain howto use autoreconf in autogen.sh
3669 [KS] Makefile.am/configure.in: changed manual page sections for
3672 [BA] smartd: reduced number of scheduled self-test messages if
3673 test already run in current hour.
3675 [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 8 family to knowndrives table.
3677 [BA] linux: check for linux/hdreg.h. If it's there, use it. If
3678 not, provide the necessary definitions ourselves.
3680 [PW] Removed warning for IBM Deskstar 40GV & 75GXP series drives
3681 with TXAOA5AA firmware
3683 [PW] Added IBM Travelstar 25GS, 18GT, and 12GN family to knowndrives
3686 [PW] Added IBM/Hitachi Travelstar 60GH & 40GN family to knowndrives
3689 [BA] smartd: made '-s' Directive more efficient. Now store
3690 compiled regex, and re-use. If device lacks certain self-test
3691 capabilities, track it and don't try again.
3693 [BA] smartd: made memory allocation for device lists completely
3694 dynamic (eliminating compile-time maximum length constants).
3696 [PW] Removed warning for SAMSUNG SP0802N with TK100-23 firmware
3698 [PW] Added Seagate Barracuda ATA IV family to knowndrives table.
3700 [BA] smartd: reduce per-device memory footprint by making
3701 mail-warning info dynamically allocated. Also remove
3702 potential memory leak if use has -m Directive twice and
3703 keeps reloading the config file (highly unlikely this would
3706 [DG] smartd: added SCSI scheduled self-tests (Background
3709 [BA] smartd: can now run scheduled offline immediate and
3710 self-tests. See man page and -s Directive for details.
3712 [GG] don't include manpages in make-dist-tarball.
3714 [BA] smartctl: on-line examples given with -h are now correct
3715 for solaris and linux, but wrong for freebsd. Ed?
3717 [BA] smartd: man page now explains device scanning for solaris as
3718 well as linux and freebsd.
3720 [BA] smartd/smartctl: man pages now report correct CVS tag release
3721 date, and executables '-V' options reports more build info.
3725 [BA] Improved user messages that appear from 'make install'
3727 [PW] Removed warning for SAMSUNG SP1213N with firmware TL100-23
3729 [BA] incorporated SuSE init script from user.
3731 [DG] if SCSI device is read only, then open it read only.
3733 [BA] when compiled on non-supported system (NOT linux, freebsd or solaris) then
3734 the run-time error messages now clearly say 'your system is not supported'
3735 and give clear directions.
3737 [BA] ./configure script now works correctly on SuSE linux boxes
3739 [BA] minor improvements to man pages
3741 [BA] simplified detection of packet (ATAPI, CD) devices.
3743 [BA] init script (redhat, mandrake, yellowdog) now uses correct
3744 strings for translation and is slightly more standard.
3746 [DG] smartctl: output scsi Seagate vendor pages for disks (not tapes)
3750 Note: there was no '5.24' release. From this point on, even numbered
3751 releases will be 'stable' ones and odd numbered releases will be
3752 unstable/testing/development ones.
3754 [DG] smartd/smartctl: changed scsiClearControlGLTSD() to
3755 scsiSetControlGLTSD() with an 'enabled' argument so '-S on'
3756 and '-S off' work for SCSI devices (if changing GLTSD supported).
3758 [BA] smartd/smartctl: wired in scsiClearControlGLTSD(). Could still
3759 use a corresponding Set function. Left stubs for this purpose.
3761 [DG] scsicmds: added scsiClearControlGLTSD() [still to be wired in]
3763 [BA] smartctl: make SCSI -T options behave the same way as the
3766 [DG] smartctl: output scsi transport protocol if available
3768 [DG] scsi: stop device scan in smartd and smartctl if badly formed
3769 mode response [heuristic to filter out USB devices before we
3770 (potentially) lock them up].
3772 [BA] smartd: deviceclose()->CloseDevice(). Got rid of SCSIDEVELOPMENT
3773 macro-enabled code. Added -W to list of gcc specific options to
3774 always enable. Made code clean for -W warnings.
3776 [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax VL 30 family to knowndrives table.
3778 [DG] scsi: add warning (when '-l error' active) if Control mode page
3779 GLTSD bit is set (global disable of saving log counters)
3781 [DG] scsi: remember mode sense cmd length. Output trip temperature
3782 from IE lpage (IBM extension) when unavailable from temp lpage.
3784 [BA] smartd: for both SCSI and ATA now warns user if either
3785 the number of self-test errors OR timestamp of most
3786 recent self-test error have increased.
3788 [DG] smartctl: output Seagate scsi Cache and Factory log pages (if
3789 available) when vendor attributes chosen
3791 [DG] smartd: add scsiCountFailedSelfTests() function.
3793 [DG] Do more sanity checking of scsi log page responses.
3795 [BA] smartd: now warns user if number of self-test errors has
3796 increased for SCSI devices.
3798 [BA] smartd: warn user if number of ATA self-test errors increases
3799 (as before) OR if hour time stamp of most recent self-test
3802 [DG] More checks for well formed mode page responses. This has the side
3803 effect of stopping scans on bad SCSI implementations (e.g. some
3804 USB disks) prior to sending commands (typically log sense) that
3807 [PW] Added Western Digital Caviar family and Caviar SE family to
3810 [BA] smartd: added -l daemon (which is the default value if -l
3813 [PW] Added Seagate Barracuda ATA V family to knowndrives table.
3815 [BA] smartd: added additional command line argument -l FACILITY
3816 or --logfacility FACILITY. This can be used to redirect
3817 messages from smartd to a different file than the one used
3818 by other system daemons.
3820 [PW] Added Seagate Barracuda 7200.7, Western Digital Protege WD400EB,
3821 and Western Digital Caviar AC38400 to knowndrives table.
3823 [BA] smartd: scanning should now also work correctly for
3824 devfs WITHOUT traditional links /dev/hd[a-t] or /dev/sd[a-z].
3826 [PW] Added Maxtor 4W040H3, Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 Plus,
3827 IBM Deskstar 120GXP (40GB), Seagate U Series 20410,
3828 Fujitsu MHM2100AT, MHL2300AT, MHM2150AT, and IBM-DARA-212000
3829 to knowndrives table.
3831 [PW] Added remaining Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 9 models to knowndrives
3834 [EM] smartd: If no matches found, then return 0, rather than an error
3835 indication, as it just means no devices of the given type exist.
3836 Adjust FreeBSD scan code to mirror Linux version.
3838 [BA] smartd: made device scan code simpler and more robust. If
3839 too many devices detected, warn user but scan as many
3840 as possible. If error in scanning, warn user but don't
3843 [EM] smartd: To keep as consistent as possible, migrate FreeBSD
3844 devicescan code to also use glob(3). Also verified clean
3845 compile on a 4.7 FreeBSD system.
3847 [BA] smartd: Modified device scan code to use glob(3). Previously
3848 it appeared to have trouble when scanning devices on an XFS
3849 file system, and used non-public interface to directory
3850 entries. Problems were also reported when /dev/ was on an
3851 ext2/3 file system, but there was a JFS partition on the same
3854 [BA] Clearer error messages when device scanning finds no suitable
3857 [EM] FreeBSD: Fixup code to allow for proper compilation under
3862 [BA] smartd: didn't close file descriptors of ATA packet devices
3863 that are scanned. Fixed.
3865 [BA] Added reload/report targets to the smartmontools init script.
3866 reload: reloads config file
3867 report: send SIGUSR1 to check devices now
3871 [EM] Fix compile issues for FreeBSD < 5-CURRENT.
3873 [PW] Added Fujitsu MHM2200AT to knowndrives table.
3875 [BA] To help catch bugs, clear ATA error structures before all
3876 ioctl calls. Disable code that attempted to time-out on SCSI
3877 devices when they hung (doesn't work).
3879 [BA] Documented STATUS/ERROR flags added by [PW] below.
3881 [BA] Improved algorithm to recognize ATA packet devices. Should
3882 no longer generate SYSLOG kernel noise when user tries either
3883 smartd or smartctl on packet device (CD-ROM or DVD). Clearer
3884 warning messages from smartd when scanning ATA packet device.
3886 [PW] Added TOSHIBA MK4025GAS to knowndrives table.
3888 [PW] Added a textual interpretation of the status and error registers
3889 in the SMART error log (ATA). The interpretation is
3890 command-dependent and currently only eight commands are supported
3891 (those which produced errors in the error logs that I happen to
3894 [BA] added memory allocation tracking to solaris code.
3895 Fixed solaris signal handling (reset handler to default
3896 after first call to handler) by using sigset. Added
3897 HAVE_SIGSET to configure.in
3899 [CD] solaris port: added SCSI functionality to solaris
3902 [BA] smartd: attempt to address bug report about smartd
3903 hanging on USB devices when scanning:
3904 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=107615
3905 Set a timeout of SCSITIMEOUT (nominally 7 seconds) before
3908 [EM] smartd: DEVICESCAN will follow links in a devfs filesystem and
3909 make sure the end point is a disc. Update documentation, added
3910 note about FreeBSD scanning
3912 [BA] smartd: DEVICESCAN also looks for block devices in
3913 /dev. Updated documentation. Now scans for up to
3914 20 ATA devices /dev/hda-t rather than previous 12
3917 [EM] smartd: mirror the FreeBSD DEVICESCAN logic for Linux,
3918 so that smartd now scans only devices found in /dev/. Also,
3919 make utility memory functions take a line number and file so
3920 that we report errors with the correct location.
3922 [GG] add a note about Debian bug #208964 to WARNINGS.
3924 [BA] smartctl: -T verypermissive option broken. Use
3925 -T verpermissive until the next release, please.
3927 [BA] Syntax mods so that code also compiles on Solaris using
3928 Sun Workshop compiler. Need -xmemalign 1i -xCC flags
3933 [DK] Changed configure.in so -Wall is only included if gcc
3934 is used (this is a gcc specific flag) and -fsignedchar
3935 is not used at all (this is a gcc specific compiler
3938 [BA] Modifications so that code now compiles under solaris. Now
3939 all that's needed (:-) is to fill in os_solaris.[hc]. Added
3940 os_generic.[hc] as guide to future ports. Fixed -D option
3941 of smartd (no file name). Modified -h opt of smartd/smartctl
3942 to work properly with solaris getopt().
3944 [EM] Update MAN pages with notes that 3ware drives are NOT supported
3945 under FreeBSD. Cleanup FreeBSD warning message handling.
3947 [EM] FreeBSD only: Fix first user found bug....I guess I was making
3948 the wrong assumption on how to convert ATA devnames to
3949 channel/unit numbers.
3951 [EM] Allow for option --enable-sample to append '.sample' to installed
3952 smartd.conf and rc script files. Also, let rc script shell setting
3953 be determined by configure
3955 [EM] Minor autoconf update to include -lcam for FreeBSD
3957 [EM] Add conditional logic to allow FreeBSD to compile pre-ATAng.
3959 Add some documentation to INSTALL for FreeBSD.
3961 [EM] Implement SCSI CAM support for FreeBSD. NOTE: I am not an expert
3962 in the use of CAM. It seems to work for me, but I may be doing
3963 something horribly wrong, so please exercise caution.
3965 [EM] Switch over to using 'atexit' rather than 'on_exit' routine. This also
3966 meant we needed to save the exit status elsewhere so our 'Goodbye'
3967 routine could examine it.
3969 [EM] Move the DEVICESCAN code to os specific files. Also moved some of the
3970 smartd Memory functions to utility.c to make available to smartctl.
3972 [EM] Code janitor work on os_freebsd.c.
3974 [EM] Added os_freebsd.[hc] code. Additional code janitor
3977 [BA] Code janitor working, moving OS dependent code into
3980 [GG] conditionally compile os_{freebsd,linux}.o depending on
3983 [PW] Print estimated completion time for tests
3985 [BA] Added -F samsung2 flag to correct firmware byte swap.
3986 All samsung drives with *-23 firmware revision string.
3990 [GG] Fixed broken Makefile.am (zero length smartd.conf.5
3991 was being created), fix broken uninstall/distcheck targets
3993 [FM] Improved Slackware init script added to /etc/smartd.initd
3995 smartmontools 5.19 [NOTE CHANGE OF RELEASE NUMBERING]
3997 [BA] smartctl: added '-T verypermissive' option which is
3998 equivalent to giving '-T permissive' many times.
4000 [BA] Try harder to identify from IDENTIFY DEVICE structure
4001 if SMART supported/enabled. smartd now does a more
4002 thorough job of trying to assess this before sending
4003 a SMART status command to find out for sure.
4005 [BA] smartctl: it's now possible to override the program's
4006 guess of the device type (ATA or SCSI) with -d option.
4008 [BA] try hard to avoid sending IDENTIFY DEVICE to packet
4009 devices (CDROMS). They can't do SMART, and this generates
4010 annoying syslog messages. At the same time, identify type
4013 [BA] smartctl: Can now use permissive option more
4014 than once, to control how far to go before giving up.
4016 [BA] smartd: if user asked to monitor either error or self-test
4017 logs (-l error or -l selftest) WITHOUT monitoring any of the
4018 Attribute values, code will SEGV. For 5.1-18 and earlier,
4019 a good workaround is to enable Auto offline (-o on).
4021 [BA] smartctl: If enable auto offline command given, update auto
4022 offline status before printing capabilities.
4024 [GG] Make autotools build the default, remove autotools.diff
4026 [GG] Add auto{conf,make} support, not enabled by default.
4028 [BA] Eliminated #include <linux/hdreg.h> from code. This
4029 should simplify porting to solaris, FreeBSD, etc. The
4030 only linux-specific code is now isolated to three routines,
4031 one for SCSI, one for Escalade, one for ATA.
4033 smartmontools 5.1-18
4035 [BA] smartd: fixed serious bug - Attributes not monitored unless
4036 user told smartd to ignore at least one of them!
4038 smartmontools 5.1-17
4040 [BA] Default runlevels for smartd changed from 3 and 5 to
4043 [BA] Removed as much dynamic memory allocation as possible from
4044 configuration file parsing. Reloading config file, even in
4045 presence of syntax errors etc. should not cause memory leaks.
4047 [PW] It is no longer permissible for the integer part (if any) of
4048 arguments to --report and --device to be followed by non-digits.
4049 For example, the "foo" in --report=ioctl,2foo was previously
4050 ignored, but now causes an error.
4052 [BA] smartd: added -q/--quit command line option to specify
4053 under what circumstances smartd should exit. The old
4054 -c/--checkonce option is now obsoleted by this more
4055 general-purpose option.
4057 [BA] smartd now responds to a HUP signal by re-reading its
4058 configuration file /etc/smartd.conf. If there are
4059 errors in this file, then the configuration file is
4060 ignored and smartd continues to monitor the devices that
4061 it was monitoring prior to receiving the HUP signal.
4063 [BA] Now correctly get SMART status from disks behind 3ware
4064 controllers, thanks to Adam Radford. Need 3w-xxxx driver
4065 version 1.02.00.037 or later. Previously the smartmontools
4066 SMART status always returned "OK" for 3ware controllers.
4068 [BA] Additional work on dynamic memory allocation/deallocation.
4069 This should have no effect on smartctl, but clears that way
4070 for smartd to dynamically add and remove entries. It should
4071 also now be easier to modify smartd to re-read its config
4072 file on HUP (which is easy) without leaking memory (which is
4073 harder). The philosophy is that memory for data structures in
4074 smartd is now allocated only on demand, the first time it
4077 [BA] smartd: finished cleanup. Now use create/rm functions for
4078 cfgentries and dynamic memory allocation almost everywhere.
4079 Philosophy: aggresively try and provoke SEGV to help find
4082 [BA] Added SAMSUNG SV0412H to knowndrives table.
4084 [BA] smartd: if DEVICESCAN used then knowndrives table might not set
4085 the -v attributes correctly -- may have been the same for all
4086 the drives. Cleaned up some data structures and memory
4087 allocation to try and ensure segvs if such problems are
4090 [BA] Now allow -S on and -o on for the 3ware device type. For these
4091 commands to be passed through, the stock 3ware 3w-xxxx driver
4092 must be patched (8 lines). I'll post a patch on the smartmontools
4093 home page after it's been tested by a few other people and 3ware
4094 have had a chance to look it over.
4096 smartmontools-5.1-16
4098 [BA] smartd - can now monitor ATA drives behind 3ware controllers.
4100 [BA] smartd - changed some FATAL out of memory error messages from
4101 syslog level LOG_INFO to LOG_CRIT.
4103 [BA] smartctl - added code to look at ATA drives behind 3ware RAID
4104 controllers using the 3w-xxxx driver. Note that for technical
4105 reasons related to the 3w-xxxx driver, the "Enable Autosave",
4106 "Enable Automatic Offline" commands are not implemented.
4107 I will add this to smartd shortly.
4109 [BA] smartd - modified sleep loop, so that smartd no longer comes
4110 on the run queue every second. Instead, unless interrupted,
4111 it sleeps until the next polling time, when it wakes up. Now
4112 smartd also tries to wake up at exactly the right
4113 intervals (nominally 30 min) even if the user has been sending
4116 [GG] add Fujitsu MHN2300AT to vendoropts_9_seconds.
4118 [EB] Fujitsu change in knowndrives ... match the whole MPD and
4119 MPE series for vendoropts_9_seconds.
4121 [BA] smartd bug, might cause segv if a device can not be opened. Was
4122 due to missing comma in char* list. Consequence is that email
4123 failure messages might have had the wrong Subject: heading for
4124 errorcount, FAILEDhealthcheck, FAILEDreadsmartdata, FAILEDreadsmarterrorlog,
4125 FAILEDreadsmartsefltestlog, FAILEDopendevice were all displaced by
4126 one. And FAILEDopendevice might have caused a segv if -m was being
4127 used as a smartd Directive.
4129 smartmontools-5.1-15
4131 [BA] Cleaned up smartmontools.spec so that upgrading, removing
4132 and other such operations correctly preserve running behavior
4133 and booting behavior of smartd.
4135 [BA] Improved formatting of ATA Error Log printout, and added
4136 listing of names of commands that caused the error. Added
4137 obsolete ATA-4 SMART feature commands to table, along with
4138 obsolete SFF-8035i SMART feature command.
4140 [PW] Added atacmdnames.[hc], which turn command register &
4141 feature register pairs into ATA command names.
4143 [BA] Added conveyance self-test. Some code added for selective
4144 self-tests, but #ifdefed out.
4146 [BA] Modified smartd exit status and log levels. If smartd is
4147 "cleanly" terminated, for example with SIGTERM, then its
4148 exit messages are now logged at LOG_INFO not LOG_CRIT
4150 [BA] Added Attribute IDs (Fujitsu) 0xCA - 0xCE. This is decimal
4151 202-206. Added -v switches for interpretation of Attributes
4154 [BA] Made smartmontools work with any endian order machine for:
4155 - SMART selftest log
4156 - SMART ATA error log
4157 - SMART Attributes values
4158 - SMART Attributes thesholds
4159 - IDENTIFY DEVICE information
4161 Smartmontools is now free of endian bias and works correctly
4162 on both little- and big-endian hardware. This has been tested by
4163 three independent PPC users on a variety of ATA and SCSI hardware.
4165 [DG] Check that certain SCSI command responses are well formed. If
4166 IEC mode page response is not well formed exit smartctl. This
4167 is to protect aacraid. smartd should ignore a aacraid device.
4169 smartmontools-5.1-14
4171 [BA] smartctl: added column to -A output to show if Attributes are
4172 updated only during off-line testing or also during normal
4175 smartmontools-5.1-13
4177 [BA] smartd: attempt to enable/disable automatic offline testing even
4178 if the disk appears not to support it. Now the same logic
4181 [BA] Added definition of Attribute 201, soft read error rate.
4183 [BA] Added IBM/Hitachi IC35L120AVV207-1 (GXP-180) and corresponding
4184 8MB Cache GXP-120 to drive database.
4186 [BA] smartd: if DEVICESCAN Directive used in smartd.conf, and
4187 -I, -R or -r Directives used in conjunction with this, got
4188 segv errors. Fixed by correcting memory allocation calls.
4190 [BA] smartd: enable automatic offline testing was broken due
4191 to cut-and-paste error that disabled it instead of
4192 enabling it. Thanks to Maciej W. Rozycki for pointing
4193 out the problem and solution.
4195 [BA] Fixed "spelling" of some Attribute names to replace spaces
4196 in names by underscores. (Fixed field width easier for awk
4199 [BA,GF] Added mods submitted by [GF] to support Attribute 193 being
4200 load/unload cycles. Add -v 193,loadunload option, useful for
4201 Hitachi drive DK23EA-30, and add this drive to knowndrive.c
4202 Add meaning of attribute 250 : Read error retry rate
4204 smartmontools-5.1-12
4206 [BA] Added another entry for Samsung drives to knowndrive table.
4208 [DG] Refine SCSI log sense command to do a double fetch in most cases
4209 (but not for the TapeAlert log page). Fix TapeAlert and Self Test
4210 log page response truncation.
4212 [PW] Added 'removable' argument to -d Directive for smartd. This indicates
4213 that smartd should continue (rather than exit) if the device does not
4214 appear to be present.
4216 [BA] Modified smartmontools.spec [Man pages location] and
4217 smartd.initd [Extra space kills chkconfig!] for Redhat 6.x
4218 compatibility (thanks to Gerald Schnabel).
4220 smartmontools-5.1-11
4222 [EB] Add another Fujitsu disk to knowndrives.c
4224 [GG] match for scsi/ and ide/ in case of devfs to exclude false postives
4226 [BA] If SCSI device listed in /etc/smartd.conf fails to open or do
4227 SMART stuff correctly, or not enough space
4228 to list all SCSI devices, fail with error unless
4229 -DSCSIDEVELOPMENT set during compile-time.
4231 [BA] Added automatic recognition of /dev/i* (example: /dev/ide/...)
4234 [DG] Add "Device type: [disk | tape | medium changer | ...] line to
4235 smartctl -i output for SCSI devices.
4237 [PW] Fixed bug in smartd where test email would be sent regularly (for
4238 example, daily if the user had specified -M daily) instead of just
4241 [KM] More TapeAlert work. Added translations for media changer
4242 alerts. TapeAlert support reported according to the log page
4243 presence. ModeSense not attempted for non-ready tapes (all
4244 drives do not support this after all). Get peripheral type from
4245 Inquiry even if drive info is not printed. Add QUIETON()
4246 QUIETOFF() to TapeAlert log check.
4248 [BA] Stupid bug in atacmds.c minor_str[] affected ataVersionInfo().
4249 Two missing commas meant that minor_str[] had two few elements,
4250 leading to output like this:
4251 Device Model: Maxtor 6Y120L0
4252 Serial Number: Y40BF74E
4253 Firmware Version: YAR41VW0
4254 Device is: Not in smartctl database [for details use: -P showall]
4256 ATA Standard is: 9,minutes
4258 Missing commas inserted.
4260 [BA] Fixed smartd bug. On device registration, if ATA device did
4261 not support SMART error or self-test logs but user had asked to
4262 monitor them, an attempt would be made to read them anyway,
4263 possibly generating "Drive Seek" errors. We now check that
4264 the self-test and error logs are supported before trying to
4265 access them the first time.
4267 [GG/BA] Fixed bug where if SMART ATA error log not supported,
4268 command was tried anyway. Changed some error printing to use
4271 [GG] Makefile modifications to ease packaging
4273 [DG] Did work for TapeAlerts (SCSI). Now can detect /dev/nst0 as a
4274 SCSI device. Also open SCSI devices O_NONBLOCK so they don't
4275 hang on open awaiting media. The ATA side should worry about
4276 this also: during a DEVICESCAN a cd/dvd device without media
4277 will hang. Added some TapeAlert code suggested by Kai Makisara.
4279 smartmontools-5.1-10
4281 [PW] Extended the -F option/Directive to potentially fix other firmware
4282 bugs in addition to the Samsung byte-order bug. Long option name is
4283 now --firmwarebug and the option/Directive accepts an argument
4284 indicating the type of firmware bug to fix.
4286 [BA] Fixed a bug that prevented the enable automatic off-line
4287 test feature from enabling. It also prevented the enable Attribute
4288 autosave from working. See CVS entry for additional details.
4290 [PW] Modified the -r/--report option (smartctl and smartd) to allow the
4291 user to specify the debug level as a positive integer.
4293 [BA] Added --log directory option to smartctl. If the disk
4294 supports the general-purpose logging feature set (ATA-6/7)
4295 then this option enables the Log Directory to be printed.
4296 This Log Directory shows which device logs are available, and
4297 their lengths in sectors.
4299 [PW] Added -P/--presets option to smartctl and -P Directive to smartd.
4301 [GG] Introduce different exit codes indicating the type of problem
4302 encountered for smartd.
4304 [DG] Add non-medium error count to '-l error' and extended self test
4305 duration to '-l selftest'. Get scsi IEs and temperature changes
4306 working in smartd. Step over various scsi disk problems rather
4307 than abort smartd startup.
4309 [DG] Support -l error for SCSI disks (and tapes). Output error counter
4312 [BA] Added -F/--fixbyteorder option to smartctl. This allows us to read
4313 SMART data from some disks that have byte-reversed two- and four-
4314 byte quantities in their SMART data structures.
4316 [BA] Fixed serious bug: the -v options in smartd.conf were all put
4317 together and used together, not drive-by-drive.
4319 [PW] Added knowndrives.h and knowndrives.c. The knowndrives array
4320 supersedes the drivewarnings array.
4322 [GG] add {-p,--pidfile} option to smartd to write a PID file on
4323 startup. Update the manpage accordingly.
4325 [DG] Fix scsi smartd problem detecting SMART support. More cleaning
4326 and fix (and rename) scsiTestUnitReady(). More scsi renaming.
4328 [BA] Fixed smartd so that if a disk that is explictily listed is not
4329 found, then smartd will exit with nonzero status BEFORE forking.
4330 If a disk can't be registered, this will also be detected before
4331 forking, so that init scripts can react correctly.
4333 [BA] Replaced all linux-specific ioctl() calls in atacmds.c with
4334 a generic handler smartcommandhandler(). Now the only routine
4335 that needs to be implemented for a given OS is os_specific_handler().
4336 Also implemented the --report ataioctl. This provides
4337 two levels of reporting. Using the option once gives a summary
4338 report of device IOCTL transactions. Using the option twice give
4339 additional info (a printout of ALL device raw 512 byte SMART
4340 data structures). This is useful for debugging.
4342 [DG] more scsi cleanup. Output scsi device serial number (VPD page
4343 0x80) if available as part of '-i'. Implement '-t offline' as
4344 default self test (only self test older disks support).
4346 [BA] Changed crit to info in loglevel of smartd complaint to syslog
4347 if DEVICESCAN enabled and device not found.
4349 [BA] Added -v 194,10xCelsius option/Directive. Raw Attribute number
4350 194 is ten times the disk temperature in Celsius.
4352 [DG] scsicmds.[hc] + scsiprint.c: clean up indentation, remove tabs.
4353 Introduce new intermediate interface based on "struct scsi_cmnd_io"
4354 to isolate SCSI generic commands + responses from Linux details;
4355 should help port to FreeBSD of SCSI part of smartmontools.
4356 Make SCSI command builders more parametric.
4360 [BA] smartctl: if HDIO_DRIVE_TASK ioctl() is not implemented (no
4361 kernel support, then try to assess drive health by examining
4362 Attribute values/thresholds directly.
4364 [BA] smartd/smartctl: added -v 200,writeerrorcount option/Directive
4367 [BA] smartd: Now send email if any of the SMART commands fails,
4368 or if open()ing the device fails. This is often noted
4369 as a common disk failure mode.
4371 [BA] smartd/smartctl: Added -v N,raw8 -v N,raw16 and -v N,raw48
4372 Directives/Options for printing Raw Attributes in different
4375 [BA] smartd: Added -r ID and -R ID for reporting/tracking Raw
4376 values of Attributes.
4378 [BA] smartd/smartctl: Changed printing of spin-up-time attribute
4379 raw value to reflect current/average as per IBM standard.
4381 [BA] smartd/smartctl: Added -v 9,seconds option for disks which
4382 use Attribute 9 for power-on lifetime in seconds.
4384 [BA] smartctl: Added a warning message so that users of some IBM
4385 disks are warned to update their firmware. Note: we may want
4386 to add a command-line flag to disable the warning messages.
4387 I have done this in a general way, using regexp, so that we
4388 can add warnings about any type of disk that we wish...
4392 [BA] smartd: Created a subdirectory examplescripts/ of source
4393 directory that contains executable scripts for the -M exec PATH
4394 Directive of smartd.
4398 [BA] smartd: DEVICESCAN in /etc/smartd.conf
4399 can now be followed by all the same Directives as a regular
4400 device name like /dev/hda takes. This allows one to use
4402 DEVICESCAN -m root@example.com
4403 in the /etc/smartd.conf file.
4405 [BA] smartd: Added -c (--checkonce) command-line option. This checks
4406 all devices once, then exits. The exit status can be
4407 used to learn if devices were detected, and if smartd is
4408 functioning correctly. This is primarily for Distribution
4411 [BA] smartd: Implemented -M exec Directive for
4412 smartd.conf. This makes it possible to run an
4413 arbitrary script or mailing program with the
4416 [PW] smartd: Modified -M Directive so that it can be given
4417 multiple times. Added -M exec Directive.
4421 [BA] Fixed bug in smartctl pointed out by Pierre Gentile.
4422 -d scsi didn't work because tryata and tryscsi were
4423 reversed -- now works on /devfs SCSI devices.
4425 [BA] Fixed bug in smartctl pointed out by Gregory Goddard
4426 <ggoddard@ufl.edu>. Manual says that bit 6 of return
4427 value turned on if errors found in smart error log. But
4428 this wasn't implemented.
4432 [BA] Modified printing format for 9,minutes to read
4433 Xh+Ym not X h + Y m, so that fields are fixed width.
4435 [BA] Added Attribute 240 "head flying hours"
4439 [BA] As requested, local time/date now printed by smartctl -i
4441 [PW] Added "help" argument to -v for smartctl
4443 [PW] Added -D, --showdirectives option to smartd
4445 [DG] add '-l selftest' capability for SCSI devices (update smartctl.8)
4447 [BA] smartd,smartctl: added additional Attribute modification option
4448 -v 220,temp and -v 9,temp.
4450 [PW] Renamed smartd option -X to -d
4452 START OF SMARTMONTOOLS 5.1 series
4454 smartmontools-5.0.50
4456 [PW] Changed smartd.conf Directives -- see man page
4458 [BA/DG] Fixed uncommented comment in smartd.conf
4460 [DG] Correct 'Recommended start stop count' for SCSI devices
4462 [PW] Replaced smartd.conf directive -C with smartd option -i
4464 [PW] Changed options for smartctl -- see man page.
4466 [BA] Use strerror() to generate system call error messages.
4468 [BA] smartd: fflush() all open streams before fork().
4470 [BA] smartctl, smartd simplified internal handling of checksums
4471 for simpler porting and less code.
4473 smartmontools-5.0.49
4475 [PW] smartd --debugmode changed to --debug
4477 [BA] smartd/smartctl added attribute 230 Head Amplitude from
4480 [PW] Added list of proposed new options for smartctl to README.
4482 [PW] smartd: ParseOpts() now uses getopt_long() if HAVE_GETOPT_LONG is
4483 defined and uses getopt() otherwise. This is controlled by CPPFLAGS in
4486 [BA] smartd: Fixed a couple of error messages done with perror()
4487 to redirect them as needed.
4489 smartmontools-5.0.48
4491 [BA] smartctl: The -O option to enable an Immediate off-line test
4492 did not print out the correct time that the test would take to
4493 complete. This is because the test timer is volatile and not
4494 fixed. This has been fixed, and the smartctl.8 man page has been
4495 updated to explain how to track the Immediate offline test as it
4496 progresses, and to further emphasize the differences between the
4497 off-line immediate test and the self-tests.
4499 [BA] smartd/smartctl: Added new attribute (200) Multi_Zone_Error_Rate
4501 [BA] smartctl: modified so that arguments could have either a single -
4502 as in -ea or multiple ones as in -e -a. Improved warning message for
4503 device not opened, and fixed error in redirection of error output of
4504 HD identity command.
4506 [PW] smartd: added support for long options. All short options are still
4507 supported; see manpage for available long options.
4509 [BA] smartctl. When raw Attribute value was 2^31 or larger, did
4510 not print correctly.
4512 smartmontools-5.0.46
4514 [BA] smartd: added smartd.conf Directives -T and -s. The -T Directive
4515 enables/disables Automatic Offline Testing. The -s Directive
4516 enables/disables Attribute Autosave. Documentation and
4517 example configuration file updated to agree.
4519 [BA] smartd: user can make smartd check the disks at any time
4520 (ie, interrupt sleep) by sending signal SIGUSR1 to smartd. This
4521 can be done for example with:
4523 where <pid> is the process ID number of smartd.
4525 [EB] scsi: don't trust the data we receive from the drive too
4526 much. It very well might have errors (like zero response length).
4527 Seen on Megaraid logical drive, and verified in the driver source.
4529 [BA] smartd: added Directive -m for sending test email and
4530 for modifying email reminder behavior. Updated manual, and sample
4531 configuration file to illustrate & explain this.
4533 [BA] smartd: increased size of a continued smartd.conf line to
4536 [BA] Simplified Directive parsers and improved warning/error
4539 smartmontools-5.0.45
4541 [EB] Fixed bug in smartd where testunitready logic inverted
4542 prevented functioning on scsi devices.
4543 The bug in question only affects smartd users with scsi devices.
4544 To see if your version of smartd has the testunitready() bug, do
4546 If the version of the module smartd.c in a line like:
4547 Module: smartd.c revision: 1.66 date: 2002/11/17
4548 has a revision greater than or equal to 1.30, and less than or equal to
4549 1.64, then your version of the code has this problem.
4550 This problem affected releases starting with RELEASE_5_0_16 up to and
4551 including RELEASE_5_0_43.
4553 [BA] Added testunitnotready to smartctl for symmetry with smartd.
4555 [SB] added Czech descriptions to .spec file
4556 [SB] corrected comment in smartd.conf example
4558 [BA] Changed way that entries in the ATA error log are printed,
4559 to make it clearer which is the most recent error and
4560 which is the oldest one.
4562 NOTE: All changes made prior to this point were done by Bruce Allen
4563 [BA] although several of them had been suggested by earlier postings
4564 by Stanislav Brabec [SB].
4566 smartmontools-5.0.43
4568 Changed Temperature_Centigrade to Temperature_Celsius.
4569 The term "Centigrade" ceased to exist in 1948. (c.f
4570 http://www.bartleby.com/64/C004/016.html).
4572 smartmontools-5.0.42
4574 Modified SCSI device check to also send warning emails if
4575 requested in directives file.
4577 Added a new smartd configuration file Directive: -M ADDRESS.
4578 This sends a single warning email to ADDRESS for failures or
4579 errors detected with the -c, -L, -l, or -f Directives.
4581 smartmontools-5.0.38
4583 Modified perror() statements in atacmds.c so that printout for SMART
4584 commands errors is properly suppressed or queued depending upon users
4585 choices for error reporting modes.
4587 Added Italian descriptions to smartmontools.spec file.
4589 Started impementing send-mail-on-error for smartd; not yet enabled.
4591 Added -P (Permissive) Directive to smartd.conf file to allow SMART
4592 monitoring of pre-ATA-3 Rev 4 disks that have SMART but do not have
4593 a SMART capability bit.
4595 Removed charset encodings from smartmontools.spec file for non-English
4598 smartmontools-5.0.32
4600 Added manual page smartd.conf.5 for configuration file.
4602 smartctl: Missing ANSI prototype in failuretest(); fixed.
4604 smartctl: Checksum warnings now printed on stdout, or are silent,
4605 depending upon -q and -Q settings.
4607 smartmontools-5.0.31
4609 Changed Makefile so that the -V option does not reflect file state
4612 smartctl: added new options -W, -U, and -P to control if and how the
4613 smartctl exits if an error is detected in either a SMART data
4614 structure checksum, or a SMART command returns an error.
4616 modified manual page to break options into slightly more logical
4619 reformatted 'usage' message order to agree with man page ordering
4621 modified .spec file so that locale information now contains
4622 character set definition. Changed pt_BR to pt since we do not use any
4623 aspect other than language. See man setlocale.
4625 smartmontools-5.0.30
4626 smartctl: added new options -n and -N to force device to be ATA or SCSI
4627 smartctl: no longer dies silently if device path does not start/dev/X
4628 smartctl: now handles arbitrary device paths
4630 smartmontools-5.0.29
4631 Modified .spec file and Makefile to make them more compliant with
4632 the "right" way of doing things.
4634 smartmontools-5.0.26
4635 Fixed typesetting error in man page smartd.8
4637 Removed redundant variable (harmless) from smartd.c
4639 smartmontools-5.0.25
4641 Added a new directive for the configuration file. If the word
4642 DEVICESCAN appears before any non-commented material in the
4643 configuration file, then the confi file will be ignored and the
4644 devices wil be scanned.
4646 smartmontools-5.0.24
4648 Note: it has now been confirmed that the code modifications between
4649 5.0.23 and 5.0.24 have eliminated the GCC 3.2 problems. Note that
4650 there is a GCC bug howerver, see #8404 at
4651 http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?database=gcc&cmd=query
4652 http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8404
4654 Added new Directive for Configuration file:
4655 -C <N> This sets the time in between disk checks to be <N>
4656 seconds apart. Note that although you can give
4657 this Directive multiple times on different lines of
4658 the configuration file, only the final value that
4659 is given has an effect, and applies to all the
4660 disks. The default value of <N> is 1800 sec, and
4661 the minimum allowed value is ten seconds.
4663 Problem wasn't the print format. F.L.W. Meunier <0@pervalidus.net>
4664 sent me a gcc 3.2 build and I ran it under a debugger. The
4665 problem seems to be with passing the very large (2x512+4) byte
4666 data structures as arguments. I never liked this anyway; it was
4667 inherited from smartsuite. So I've changed all the heavyweight
4668 functions (ATA ones, anyone) to just passing pointers, not hideous
4669 kB size structures on the stack. Hopefully this will now build OK
4670 under gcc 3.2 with any sensible compilation options.
4672 smartmontools-5.0.23
4674 Because of reported problems with GCC 3.2 compile, I have gone
4675 thorough the code and explicitly changed all print format
4676 parameters to correspond EXACTLY to int unless they have to be
4677 promoted to long longs. To quote from the glibc bible: [From
4678 GLIBC Manual: Since the prototype doesn't specify types for
4679 optional arguments, in a call to a variadic function the default
4680 argument promotions are performed on the optional argument
4681 values. This means the objects of type char or short int (whether
4682 signed or not) are promoted to either int or unsigned int, as
4685 smartmontools-5.0.22
4687 smartd, smartctl now warn if they find an attribute whose ID
4688 number does not match between Data and Threshold structures.
4690 Fixed nasty bug which led to wrong number of arguments for a
4691 varargs statement, with attendent stack corruption. Sheesh!
4692 Have added script to CVS attic to help find such nasties in the
4695 smartmontools-5.0.21
4697 Eliminated some global variables out of header files and other
4698 minor cleanup of smartd.
4700 smartmontools-5.0.20
4702 Did some revision of the man page for smartd and made the usage
4703 messages for Directives 100% consistent.
4705 smartmontools-5.0-19
4707 smartd: prints warning message when it gets SIGHUP, saying that it
4708 is NOT re-reading the config file.
4710 smartctl: updated man page to say self-test commands -O,x,X,s,S,A
4711 appear to be supported in the code. [I can't test these, can anyone
4714 smartmontools-5.0-18
4716 smartctl: smartctl would previously print the LBA of a self-test
4717 if it completed, and the LBA was not 0 or 0xff...f However
4718 according to the specs this is not correct. According to the
4719 specs, if the self-test completed without error then LBA is
4720 undefined. This version fixes that. LBA value only printed if
4721 self-test encountered an error.
4723 smartmontools-5.0-17
4725 smartd has changed significantly. This is the first CVS checkin of
4726 code that extends the options available for smartd. The following
4727 options can be placed into the /etc/smartd.conf file, and control the
4729 Configuration file Directives (following device name):
4730 -A Device is an ATA device
4731 -S Device is a SCSI device
4732 -c Monitor SMART Health Status
4733 -l Monitor SMART Error Log for changes
4734 -L Monitor SMART Self-Test Log for new errors
4735 -f Monitor for failure of any 'Usage' Attributes
4736 -p Report changes in 'Prefailure' Attributes
4737 -u Report changes in 'Usage' Attributes
4738 -t Equivalent to -p and -u Directives
4739 -a Equivalent to -c -l -L -f -t Directives
4740 -i ID Ignore Attribute ID for -f Directive
4741 -I ID Ignore Attribute ID for -p, -u or -t Directive
4742 # Comment: text after a hash sign is ignored
4743 \ Line continuation character
4745 cleaned up functions used for printing CVS IDs. Now use string
4746 library, as it should be.
4748 modified length of device name string in smartd internal structure
4749 to accomodate max length device name strings
4751 removed un-implemented (-e = Email notification) option from
4752 command line arg list. We'll put it back on when implemeneted.
4754 smartd now logs serious (fatal) conditions in its operation at
4755 loglevel LOG_CRIT rather than LOG_INFO before exiting with error.
4757 smartd used to open a file descriptor for each SMART enabled
4758 device, and then keep it open the entire time smartd was running.
4759 This meant that some commands, like IOREADBLKPART did not work,
4760 since the fd to the device was open. smartd now opens the device
4761 when it needs to read values, then closes it. Also, if one time
4762 around it can't open the device, it simply prints a warning
4763 message but does not give up. Have eliminated the .fd field from
4764 data structures -- no longer gets used.
4766 smartd now opens SCSI devices as well using O_RDONLY rather than
4767 O_RDWR. If someone can no longer monitor a SCSI device that used
4768 to be readable, this may well be the reason why.
4770 smartd never checked if the number of ata or scsi devices detected
4771 was greater than the max number it could monitor. Now it does.
4773 smartmontools-5.0-16
4775 smartd on startup now looks in the configuration file /etc/smartd.conf for
4776 a list of devices which to include in its monitoring list. See man page
4777 (man smartd) for syntax.
4779 smartd: close file descriptors of SCSI device if not SMART capable
4780 Closes ALL file descriptors after forking to daemon.
4782 added new temperature attribute (231, temperature)
4784 smartd: now open ATA disks using O_RDONLY
4786 smartmontools-5.0-11
4788 smartd now prints the name of a failed or changed attribute
4789 into logfile, not just ID number
4791 Changed name of -p (print version) option to -V
4793 Minor change in philosophy: if a SMART command fails or the device
4794 appears incapable of a SMART command that the user has asked for,
4795 complain by printing an error message, but go ahead and try
4796 anyway. Since unimplemented SMART commands should just return an
4797 error but not cause disk problems, this should't cause any
4800 Added two new flags: q and Q. q is quiet mode - only print: For
4801 the -l option, errors recorded in the SMART error log; For the -L
4802 option, errors recorded in the device self-test log; For the -c
4803 SMART "disk failing" status or device attributes (pre-failure or
4804 usage) which failed either now or in the past; For the -v option
4805 device attributes (pre-failure or usage) which failed either now
4806 or in the past. Q is Very Quiet mode: Print no ouput. The only
4807 way to learn about what was found is to use the exit status of
4810 smartctl now returns sensible values (bitmask). See smartctl.h
4811 for the values, and the man page for documentation.
4813 The SMART status check now uses the correct ATA call. If failure
4814 is detected we search through attributes to list the failed ones.
4815 If the SMART status check shows GOOD, we then look to see if their
4816 are any usage attributes or prefail attributes have failed at any
4817 time. If so we print them.
4819 Modified function that prints vendor attributes to say if the
4820 attribute has currently failed or has ever failed.
4822 -p option now prints out license info and CVS strings for all
4823 modules in the code, nicely formatted.
4825 Previous versions of this code (and Smartsuite) only generate
4826 SMART failure errors if the value of an attribute is below the
4827 threshold and the prefailure bit is set. However the ATA Spec
4828 (ATA4 <=Rev 4) says that it is a SMART failure if the value of an
4829 attribute is LESS THAN OR EQUAL to the threshold and the
4830 prefailure bit is set. This is now fixed in both smartctl and
4831 smartd. Note that this is a troubled subject -- the original
4832 SFF 8035i specification defining SMART was inconsistent about
4833 this. One section says that Attribute==Threshold is pass,
4834 and another section says it is fail. However the ATA specs are
4835 consistent and say Attribute==Threshold is a fail.
4837 smartd did not print the correct value of any failing SMART attribute. It
4838 printed the index in the attribute table, not the attribute
4841 when starting self-tests in captive mode ioctl returns EIO because
4842 the drive has been busied out. Detect this and don't return an eror
4843 in this case. Check this this is correct (or how to fix it?)
4845 fixed possible error in how to determine ATA standard support
4846 for devices with no ATA minor revision number.
4848 device opened only in read-only not read-write mode. Don't need R/W
4849 access to get smart data. Check this with Andre.
4851 smartctl now handles all possible choices of "multiple options"
4852 gracefully. It goes through the following phases of operation,
4853 in order: INFORMATION, ENABLE/DISABLE, DISPLAY DATA, RUN/ABORT TESTS.
4854 Documentation has bee updated to explain the different phases of
4855 operation. Control flow through ataPrintMain()
4858 If reading device identity information fails, try seeing if the info
4859 can be accessed using a "DEVICE PACKET" command. This way we can
4860 at least get device info.
4862 Modified Makefile to automatically tag CVS archive on issuance of
4865 Modified drive detection so minor device ID code showing ATA-3 rev
4866 0 (no SMART) is known to not be SMART capable.
4868 Now verify the checksum of the device ID data structure, and of the
4869 attributes threshold structure. Before neither of these
4870 structures had their checksums verified.
4872 New behavior vis-a-vis checksums. If they are wrong, we log
4873 warning messages to stdout, stderr, and syslog, but carry on
4874 anyway. All functions now call a checksumwarning routine if the
4875 checksum doesn't vanish as it should.
4877 Changed Read Hard Disk Identity function to get fresh info from
4878 the disk on each call rather than to use the values that were read
4879 upon boot-up into the BIOS. This is the biggest change in this
4880 release. The ioctl(device, HDIO_GET_IDENTITY, buf ) call should
4881 be avoided in such code. Note that if people get garbled strings
4882 for the model, serial no and firmware versions of their drives,
4883 then blame goes here (the BIOS does the byte swapping for you,
4886 Function ataSmartSupport now looks at correct bits in drive
4887 identity structure to verify first that these bits are valid,
4890 Function ataIsSmartEnabled() written which uses the Drive ID state
4891 information to tell if SMART is enabled or not. We'll carry this
4892 along for the moment without using it.
4894 Function ataDoesSmartWork() guaranteed to work if the device
4897 Replace some numbers by #define MACROS
4899 Wrote Function TestTime to return test time associated with each
4900 different type of test.
4902 Thinking of the future, have added a new function called
4903 ataSmartStatus2(). Eventually when I understand how to use the
4904 TASKFILE API and am sure that this works correctly, it will
4905 replace ataSmartStatus(). This queries the drive directly to
4906 see if the SMART status is OK, rather than comparing thresholds to
4907 attribute values ourselves. But I need to get some drives that fail
4908 their SMART status to check it.
4911 smartmontools-5.0-10
4912 Removed extraneous space before printing in some error messages
4913 Fixed additional typos in documentation
4914 Fixed some character buffers that were too short for their contents.
4918 Put project home path into all source files near the top
4919 Corrected typos in the documentation
4920 Modified Makefile so that Mandrake Cooker won't increment version number
4921 (unless they happen to be working on my machine, which I doubt!)
4923 smartmontools-5.0-8:
4925 For IBM disks whose raw temp data includes three temps. print all
4928 print timestamps for error log to msec precision
4930 added -m option for Hitachi disks that store power on life in
4933 added -L option for printing self-test error logs
4935 in -l option, now print power on lifetime, so that one can see
4936 when the error took place
4938 updated SMART structure definitions to ATA-5 spec
4942 added -f and -F options to enable/disable autosave threshold
4945 changed argv parsing to use getops -- elminate buffer overflow
4948 expanded and corrected documentation
4950 fixed problem with smartd. It did not actually call
4951 ataSmartEnable()! Since the argument was left out, the test
4952 always suceeded because it evaluated to a pointer to the function.
4954 smartd: closed open file descriptors if device does not support
4955 smart. Note: this still needs to be fixed for SCSI devices
