2363 [BA] Fix smartctl bug: when running in silent mode '-q errorsonly'
2364 do not print the Selective Self-test log. Any errors will
2365 ALREADY appear in the SMART Self-test log.
2367 [CF] Add missing 'const' and other minor fixes to prevent gcc warnings.
2369 [OB] Added information message about supported Areca firmware versions.
2370 It's displayed in case the ATA device identification fails.
2372 [CF] Add configuration file for Doxygen.
2374 [CF] Add new object oriented interface to access ATA and SCSI devices.
2375 smartctl and smartd are modified to use the new classes in
2376 'dev_interface.{h,cpp}'. The template class in 'dev_tunnelled.h'
2377 is used in 'scsiata.cpp'. The code in 'dev_ata_cmd_set.{h,cpp}'
2378 supports migration from old function 'ata_command_interface()'.
2379 All existing 'os_*.cpp' modules should still work without any changes.
2380 The required adapter classes from 'dev_legacy.cpp' are automatically
2381 added by configure if necessary.
2383 [BA] Updated smartd and smartctl and smartd.conf man-page documentation
2384 to reflect support for Areca SATA RAID controller cards.
2386 [OB] Added support for Areca controllers to smartd. Extensive tests
2387 as well as documentation are still pending however.
2389 [OB] Implemented device locking for Areca controllers in smartctl
2391 [BA] Fixed selective self-test code. Data structure revision number
2392 may be != 1 if no selective self-test has ever been run. Host
2393 MUST set this value (at least at the first selective self-test
2394 instance). Thanks to Curtis Stevens of WDC for clarification.
2396 [MC] usbcypress autodetection
2398 [BA] Starting to commit Areca code. For now just smartctl.
2399 More changes and documentation coming soon.
2400 Need Areca firmware version 1.45 dated 10 June 2008 or later.
2401 May need changes in opening /dev/sg and file locking.
2402 Many thanks to Hank Wu!
2404 [CF] smartd: Fix too small name buffer for 3ware with >100 devices.
2406 [JH] now C++ Support for QNX Target
2407 already tested for QNX 6.3.2 on x86 and armle target
2409 [CF] Allow to set BUILD_INFO from make command line.
2411 [CF] Windows: Add MSVC8 support, remove MSVC6 project files.
2413 [MC] Add usbcypress device support for smartd.
2415 [CF] Add output of latest CVS date/time stamp to version info.
2416 New file cvsversion.h is generated by Makefile.
2417 Move formatting of version info to utility.cpp.
2419 [AR] Fix bug in 3ware node creation where nodes would be created
2420 then deleted, then recreated.
2422 [BA] Add missing CCISS cvs version tags to '-V' printouts.
2424 [TS] Linux: Ensure the 3ware device nodes are created with a correct
2425 SELinux security context.
2427 [AR] Add support for up to 128 devices on 3ware controllers.
2429 [CF] C++: Added new main() with exception handlers, replaced
2430 exit(x) with throw(x), removed global variable 'exitstatus'.
2431 Necessary for future changes, because exit() does not call
2434 [SS] FreeBSD: plug file descriptor leak in smartd (only happens with
2435 CISS devices). Reported by Vadim Ostranitsyn.
2437 [SS] FreeBSD: allow smartctl to interact with SCSI /dev/pass devices,
2438 thus enabling it to work with RAID controllers that expose disks
2439 via these devices. From scottl@ via FreeBSD ports.
2441 [MC] Add usbcypress device support for smartctl.
2443 [KS] INSTALL on Solaris: updated description to use C++ compiler.
2445 [KS] configure.in on Solaris: added options for Sun's compiler to
2446 suppress trivial warnings.
2448 [KS] configure.in on Solaris: added direction to search suitable
2449 libraries for getaddrinfo().
2451 [TS] smartd on Linux: remove forgotten return from deviceopen();
2452 SCSI device descriptors had the FD_CLOEXEC flag unset.
2454 [CF] Added 'const' to avoid warning on depreciated string constant
2455 to 'char *' conversion.
2457 [CF] autogen.sh: automake 1.10.1 is OK. Updated message texts.
2459 [BA] removed smartmontools.spec file (now in CVS Attic). This
2460 was not being used by RH or FC anyhow, and was out of
2461 date and not maintained.
2463 [BA] smartd on Linux: sets FD_CLOEXEC on the opened device file
2464 descriptor. The descriptor is otherwise leaked to other
2465 applications (mail sender) which may be considered a security
2466 risk and may result in AVC messages on SELinux-enabled systems.
2467 Thanks to: Tomá Smetana" <tsmetana@redhat.com>.
2469 [BA] smartd: when sending email, to gather information about the
2470 host for the body of the email, eliminate gethostbyname()
2471 in favor of the IPv6-friendly function getaddrinfo() if the
2472 latter is available. Info may be found here
2473 http://udrepper.livejournal.com/16116.html
2475 http://people.redhat.com/drepper/userapi-ipv6.html
2476 Thanks to: Tomá Smetana" <tsmetana@redhat.com>.
2478 Smartmontools developers: please check that smartd still LINKS
2479 properly on your systems.
2481 [BA] Fix ugly syntax bug in os_freebsd.cpp. How did this go
2482 undetected for so long??
2484 SMARTMONTOOLS STABLE RELEASE 5.38 2008/03/10
2486 [KS] Solaris/x86: modified configure.in for Sun's compiler.
2488 [BA] smartd.initd.in addition from Erwan Velu <erwan@seanodes.com>
2492 - On Linux, DEVICESCAN now automatically recognizes SATA devices
2493 behind libata, and SATA devices behind the Marvell driver, and
2494 treats them correctly.
2496 - On Linux, a '-d sat' or '-d marvell' is automatically added
2497 if libata or the marvell driver are recognized behind a SCSI
2500 [SS] (Maybe) fix attribute autosave in FreeBSD.
2502 [SS] Major NetBSD-specific bugfixes:
2503 - handle actual SCSI and ATA errors and not only ioctl() errors;
2504 - set up I/O request properly for AUTO_OFFLINE and AUTOSAVE commands (inspired by
2505 similar change in os_freebsd.cpp);
2506 - handle AUTO_OFFLINE and AUTOSAVE like STATUS_CHECK (like os_linux.cpp does).
2508 [GG] add kfreebsd gnu support to configure.in
2510 [BA] Fix auto-offline support in FreeBSD. Thanks to
2511 Cyrus Rahman <crahman@gmail.com> for the patch, and
2512 Eduard Martinescu for blessing it.
2514 [DG] smartd re-opens "SCSI" devices as ATA devices if a SAT layer is
2515 detected (smartd bug IMO). In Linux this upsets scsi generic
2516 device nodes (e.g. /dev/sg0). Detect the re-open in os_linux.cpp
2517 and set the O_RDWR flag (ATA uses the O_RDONLY flag).
2519 [CF] Drive database: Added Fujitsu MHW2 BH, Maxtor DiamondMax 17, 20, 21,
2520 Hitachi Travelstar 4K40, 5K120, 7K200, Deskstar 7K160, T7K500,
2521 T7K1000, Toshiba 1.8", Seagate Momentus 5400.3, 5400.3 ED, 7200.2,
2522 Barracuda 7200.11 and ES.
2523 Updated Toshiba 2.5", Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 and 7200.10.
2524 Added missing "(Hitachi )?" to Travelstar entries.
2526 [CF] Drive database: Added several Western Digital Caviar and Scorpio
2527 drives, added Caviar RE EIDE family.
2529 [CF] Drive database: Added Samsung P80 series with *-25 firmware.
2531 [CF] Replaced 'head [-n] -1' by 'sed 1...' in autogen.sh to avoid
2534 [BA] Fixed autogen.sh script so that it uses 'grep -n 1' if 'grep -1'
2535 fails. Needed for Mac OS X 10.4. Uck.
2537 [CF] Windows: Added IOCTL_STORAGE_PREDICT_FAILURE. This allows access
2538 to ATA SMART status and data if other calls do not work.
2539 Thanks to Jaroslaw Kowalski for pointing this out.
2540 Added support to use this function without admin rights.
2542 [CF] Added ATA-8 revision 4c message text.
2544 [CF] Added compiler.h to cciss_ioctl.h header check to prevent
2547 [SS] DragonFly support added (using os_freebsd code; untested).
2549 [CF] smartctl: Fixed ATA identify byte swapping issue on big-endian
2550 platforms. This regression was introduced by the change for
2551 '-F swapid'. Thanks to Matthew Butch for bug report and testing.
2553 [DG] SAT/SCSI: Improve SAT error processing code. Aborted commands from
2554 ATA devices (typically because SMART was disabled) were not being
2557 [GG] smartd: wait for the pid file to show up, return an error if it doesn't
2559 [JH] fix bad return code (get STATUS) for QNX Part
2561 [JH] initial porting to QNX Neutrino 6.3.2
2562 need at this time a prerelease devb-eide driver and libcam.so.2
2563 only tested for X86 Target, but devb-eide and lobcam.so.2 available for X86/ARM
2564 the officional driver coming soon with the next QNX release
2565 create two new source files os_qnxnto.[c..h]
2567 [CF] smartd: Added option '-n, --no-fork' so that smartd works
2568 better with modern init methods. Thanks to Enrico Scholz
2569 for the patch from 2005-12-24.
2571 [CF] Windows: Improved ATA/SCSI device type detection and
2572 DEVICESCAN. This also fixes a regression in 3ware DEVICESCAN.
2574 [CF] smartd: Don't start self tests in first pass to avoid
2575 performance problems during boot.
2576 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=192591
2578 [CF] Fixed regression in SMART STATUS command on Win9x/ME.
2580 [BA] Fixed 3ware issue with new controllers. Documentation said
2581 that one could address up to 24 disks on a single controller,
2582 but in fact one was limited to 16 disks. This is now fixed:
2583 up to 32 disks can be addressed. Thanks to Adam Radford.
2585 NOTE1: I have patched the Linux and FreeBSD code but not
2586 modified the Win32 code (it already supports up to 32 disks).
2588 NOTE2: NOT TESTED ON LINUX. Do not use this on a production box!
2589 I will remove this NOTE2 as soon as some positive test
2590 reports are recieved.
2592 NOTE3: NOT TESTED ON FREEBSD. Do not use this on a production box!
2593 I will remove this NOTE3 as soon as some positive test
2594 reports are recieved.

2597 UBCD4Win plugin, smartd service update and other minor
2600 [CF] Windows: Modified drive letter handling for explorer drive
2601 context menu: try SCSI if type is unknown, allow 'X:\.' syntax.
2603 [CF] Windows: Added automatic ATA/SCSI device type detection and
2604 SCSI device scanning. The device names '/dev/sdX' and
2605 '/dev/pd<n>' now work for both ATA and SCSI disks.
2607 [CF] smartctl: Added ability to parse '-r ataioctl,2' output from
2608 stdin ('-') and simulate the ATA commands for testing purposes.
2610 [BA] SMART Attributes: added 187, 189, more accurate name for 190.
2612 [CF] Windows: Added drive letters 'X:' as alternate disk device names.

2615 ordering. Added '-q noserial' to suppress serial number output.
2617 [CF] Windows: Added '/dev/n?st<n>' as alternate device names for SCSI
2618 tapes. These names are also used by Cygwin's /dev emulation layer.
2619 Thanks to Corinna Vinschen (Cygwin project lead) for pointing this
2622 [CF] Windows: Added IOCTL_SCSI_MINIPORT_*SMART* for commands not handled
2623 properly by SMART_IOCTL in disk class driver. This allows to use
2624 READ_LOG, WRITE_LOG and ABORT_SELFTEST even if the driver does not
2625 support ATA_PASS_THROUGH.
2627 [CF] Added ATA-8 revision 4, fixed WRITE LOG '-r ioctl' output.
2629 [BA] Updated smartctl and smartd so that they can be used with the latest
2630 3ware controllers which have 24 ports. Also updated docs.
2631 Thanks to Tim Bell at CERN.
2633 [GG] bit 4 in smartctl's return code might be set even when the dist check
2634 didn't return "DISK OK"
2636 [CF] Drive database: added '-F samsung3' for Samsung P80 firmware
2639 [SS] Applied patch from Dean Bennett to fix scheduled tests on
2640 Highpoint RAID controllers.

2643 to fix broken auto-offline and auto-save via libata. Very clean fix: does it
2644 "the right way". Thanks Tejun!
2646 [CF] Added message text for ATA-7 self-test execution status 8
2647 ("... handling damage").
2649 [GG] cciss: support more than 16 disks (patch taken from
2650 http://cciss.sourceforge.net/smartmontools_cciss_more_than_16_drives.patch
2651 and adjusted for smartd)
2653 [DG] Solaris: [SCSI] add USCSI_RQENABLE flag to uscsi pass-through so
2654 sense buffer is made available. Expand reporting at this level.
2656 [GK] Darwin: Improve handling of powered-down drives.
2658 [SS] CCISS physical drive enumeration method changed (incompatibly).
2660 [CF] Fixed smartd crash on missing '-s' directive argument.
2662 [SS] Support CCISS on FreeBSD (kernel source is required until FreeBSD PR 109813
2665 [DG] SCSI/TAPE: some IBM tape drives don't react properly to a LOG
2666 SENSE with an allocation length of 4; work around for that case.
2668 [CF] Applied Guido's patch to fix CCISS LUN array bounds check
2669 (openSUSE bug #239956) and remove trailing spaces in
2672 [CF] Fixed 64-bit compilation issue in SCT status struct.
2674 [DG] SAT/SCSI: make real SCSI disks visible to DEVICESCAN in
2677 [CF] Fixed check of SCT temperature table size.
2679 [CF] Added ATA-8 draft revisions, added SCT status format 3.

2683 [CF] ATA: Added ',p' option for '-t scttempint,N' to make
2686 [CF] ATA: Added '-t scttempint,N' option to set SCT temperature
2689 [CF] ATA: Added '-l scttemp[sts,hist]' options to print disk
2690 temperature information and history table provided by
2691 SMART Command Transport (SCT) Feature Set.
2693 [CF] ATA: Added '-t selective,{redo,next,cont}' commands to
2694 perform tests based on the last ranges still stored on
2695 disk. Added 'N+SIZE' and 'N-max' format for LBA range
2698 [CF] Added Min/Max Temperature format used in attribute 190 of
2699 recent Maxtor disks (DiamondMax 20).
2701 [CF] Linux: Added check for <linux/cciss_ioctl.h> to allow build
2702 (without CCISS support) also when this file is missing.
2704 [CF] Added -F samsung3 option to correct firmware bug reporting
2705 completed self-tests as still in progress. Thanks to Manfred
2706 Schwarb for the patch.

2709 to fix compilation with gcc 2.X.
2711 [CF] Linux: compile fix for SuSE, config.h must be included first.
2713 smartmontools 5.37 Experimental Release
2715 [CF] Windows: Added alternate method for (limited) monitoring of
2716 3ware controllers by parsing the output of CLI or 3DM.
2717 Either "tw_cli" can be run internally ("/dev/tw_cli/cx/py"),
2718 or data can be read from standard input ("/dev/tw_cli/stdin")
2719 or clipboard ("/dev/tw_cli/clip").
2721 [DG] Remove linux specific libata detect code; rely on general SAT
2722 code. smartd should now generate a sensible log message for
2723 ATA devices behind a SAT layer on all architectures.
2725 [BA] Increased max line length MAXLINELEN for /etc/smartd.conf from
2726 128 to 256 characters to handle long strings in

2755 [BA] Linux: compile fix for SuSE. Check for existence
2756 of linux/compiler.h and include in os_linux.h if
2757 present. Thanks to SB.
2759 [BA] smartd: DEVICESCAN will now pick up SATA/SAT devices
2760 attached to a SCSI device tree via SAT translation.
2761 Note: this is a bit of a hack. I will document it once
2762 I know if this needs to be Linux only or can have more
2763 general application.
2765 [BA] Added a couple SATA commands to the tables -- thanks DG!
2766 Phil -- how about going through and systematically adding
2767 these new commands to atacmdnames.cpp?

2850 instead of standby condition.
2852 [CF] smartd: Ignore -n directive on scheduled self tests.
2854 [DG] [SCSI] Make start stop cycle counter log page decoding
2857 [DG] Modify smartctl (but not smartd) to detect probable ATA
2858 devices behind a SAT layer. In the absence of an explicit
2859 device type, change to device type 'sat'.
2861 [DG] Add indication that controller (device) type has been
2862 explicitly set. Preparation for automatic detection of
2863 'sat' device type unless user specifies a device type.
2865 [SS] NetBSD: Deliver strings from ata_identify_device properly
2866 on little- and big-endian platforms.
2868 [BA] Added published ANSI ATA-7 spec to list of recognized ATA
2871 [BA] Code janitor: added missing header strings for '-V' option.
2873 [DG] [SATA] Extend 'sat' device type to allow either 12 or 16 byte
2874 variant of the SAT ATA PASS THROUGH SCSI command. Syntax is
2875 '-d sat,<n>' where <n> can be 0, 12 or 16 . The ',<n>' part
2876 is optional. Currently defaults to 16 byte variant but that
2877 could be made platform or even device dependent.
2879 [DG] [SATA] Add new 'sat' device type for SATA disks behind a
2880 SCSI to ATA Translation (SAT) Layer (SATL). Uses the ATA
2881 PASS THROUGH (16) SCSI command thence the generic SCSI
2882 passthrough for each platform.
2884 [CF] Windows: Added script and make targets to create installer
2885 with NSIS (http://nsis.sourceforge.net/)
2887 [CF] Updated hostname and links for new SourceForge CVS service.

2890 and warn if temperature limits are reached.
2892 [CF] Windows: Added IOCTL_ATA_PASS_THROUGH (Win2003, XP SP2)
2893 for commands unsupported by SMART_IOCTL. Added device
2894 specific options to select subset and ordering of the ATA
2895 IOCTLs actually used. These options are specified as
2896 modifiers of the device name (/dev/hd[a-j]:[saic]+)
2898 [CF] Windows: Added support for drives 4-7 (/dev/hd[e-h]) via
2899 SMARTVSE.VXD on Win9x/ME. Thanks to Dariusz Rzonca for
2902 [DG] [SCSI/SATA linux] from lk 2.6.17 SATA disk identification in
2903 libata will change. Expand LibAta detection to see old
2904 identifier and new variant (VPD page 0x83).
2906 [BA] Identified Attribute 190 for Western Digital disks. This
2907 stores temperature in Celsius, just like Attribute 194.
2908 But it has a failure threshold set to correspond to the
2909 maximum design operating temperature of the disk, which
2910 is 55 Celsius on the WD800JD drives that I studied.
2911 So if this Attribute has 'failed
2912 in the past' this means that the maximum disk operating
2913 temperature has been exceeded.
2915 [GK] Darwin: Add support for AHCI drivers found in Intel-based Macs.
2917 smartmontools 5.36 Stable Release
2919 [BA] Linux: smartd/smartctl issue syntax hints to user if 3ware

2940 the most recent 20 self test logs [Leandro Santi]
2942 [DG] [SCSI] Fix process return value when scsiGetSmartData() fails
2943 in smartctl [Leandro Santi]
2945 [BA] Updated docs and error message to reflect Linux libata
2946 support for smartmontools starting with the 2.6.15 kernel
2947 series. Also init script support for the 'tinysofa' release.
2949 [DG] [SCSI] Mask dpofua bit when changing mode pages. Fix failure
2950 of 'smartctl -l error'.
2952 [EM] Fixed a problem with FreeBSD and 3Ware 'twe' devices
2954 [CF] Fixed a regexp in knowndrives table, added regexp syntax check
2955 via 'smartctl -P showall'.
2957 [CF] Cygwin & Windows: Fixed memory leak in function calling
2958 IOCTL_IDE_PASS_THROUGH. Thanks to Fred Schmidt for the problem
2961 [CF] Cygwin: added cygrunsrv support and commands "install", "remove"
2962 and "status" to smartd.initd.
2964 [SS] Fix runtime problems on big-engian NetBSD platforms (patch provided
2967 [CF] Cygwin smartd: Open smartd.conf in textmode to allow use of
2970 [CF] Cygwin smartd: Added option '--service' to allow smartd running
2971 as windows service via cygrunsrv. Useful in conjunction with new
2972 syslogd support added in Cygwin 1.5.15.
2974 [CF] Windows: Added patch to avoid output of non-ascii timezone names.
2976 [EM] Incorporate various patches to provide TWE support and support for
2977 multiple 3Ware cards, Power Check Support, and FreeBSD 6.x support.
2978 Thanks to Rudolf Cejka, Frank Behrens, and Jung-uk Kim.
2980 [DG] Silence gcc 4.0.1 compile warning concerning the difference in
2981 "signedness" in pointer assignments. Changes to SCSI code

2999 added Maxtor DiamondMax 17 VL series, added Hitachi Deskstar 7K80
3000 series, and added Hitachi Deskstar 7K400 series.
3002 [CF] Windows: Fixed unsupported 'smartctl -X' on Win2000/XP by using
3003 IOCTL_IDE_PASS_THROUGH instead.
3005 smartmontools 5.34 Stable Release [NOTE: never officially released]
3007 [CF] Cygwin & Windows smartd: Increased SCSI DEVICESCAN range
3008 from ASPI adapter 0-3 to 0-9. Added diagnostic messages.
3010 [CF] Windows smartd: Added ability to run .bat files via '-M exec'
3013 [CF] Cygwin smartd: Added FreeConsole() after fork() to avoid hang
3014 of terminated shell console window.
3016 [DG] [SCSI] Add code so 'smartctl -A' outputs the number of elements
3017 in the grown defect list. When this number is increasing a
3018 disk has problems. N.B. Similar logic should be added to smartd.
3020 [CF] Windows smartd: Fixed event handling to allow start of another
3021 smartd process when service is already running. Useful for testing
3022 service configuration changes in debug mode.
3024 [PW] Added following drives to knowndrives table: Western Digital Raptor
3025 family, Seagate Barracuda 7200.8 family, Maxtor DiamondMax 2160

3032 to knowndrives table.
3034 [PW] Added QUANTUM FIREBALLP LM10.2 to knowndrives table. Thanks to
3035 Mike Fleetwood for submitting the patch.
3037 [KS] Solaris/SPARC: fixed not to disable automatic offline test and
3038 automatic save attributes incorrectly. Thanks to Roy Badami.
3040 [BA] Linux: smartd init script now recognizes 'trustix' distro.
3042 [DG] [SCSI] Medium and hardware errors were slipping through
3043 unreported. Fix linux SCSI sense reporting via SG_IO ioctl.
3045 [DG] [SCSI] Change lba of first failure in selftest output to
3046 decimal (was hex) to conform with ATA output.
3048 [GK] smartd: Detect most self-test failures even if the hour counter
3051 [BA] smartctl: list 'marvell' as option if user give invalid
3054 [CF] Windows: fixed SCSI timeout handling to allow long timeouts
3057 [CF] Fixed buffer overflow issues in printone() and safe_vsnprintf()
3058 which results in crash on -V option (at least on Windows).
3060 [DG] [SCSI] Add explicit timeouts to INQUIRY and REQUEST SENSE (that
3061 were missed in an earlier patch). Could have impacted freebsd.
3063 [DG] When linux detects a sata_via_libata disk suggest that user try
3064 '-d ata' (rather then '-d libata). Anticipate kernel change.
3066 [YD] Added OS/2 and eComStation platform support.
3068 [PW] Added Seagate U4 family, Fujitsu MHJ and MHK families, Seagate
3069 Barracuda 5400.1, QUANTUM FIREBALLP KX27.3, QUANTUM FIREBALLP KA10.1,
3070 and ExcelStor J340 to knowndrives table.
3072 [DG] [SCSI] After report of Hitachi IC35L073UCDY10 disks locking up
3073 on log page 0x7 (last n error events), check log page (and some
3074 others) is supported (via log page 0x0) before probing.
3076 [CF] Added safe_v?snprintf() for platforms using v?snprintf()
3077 with non standard behaviour on overflow (Windows, old Linux)
3079 [CF] smartd: Added message if check power mode spins up disk.
3081 [CF] Windows: Added support for READ_LOG on WinNT4 using undocumented
3082 pseudo SCSI command via IOCTL_SCSI_PASS_THROUGH.
3084 [CF] smartd: Added ',q' option for '-n' directive to suppress 'skipping
3085 checks' log message. This prevents a laptop disk from spinning up
3086 due to this message. Thanks to Rob MacLachlan and Manfred Schwarb
3087 for pointing out problem & solution.
3089 [CF] Windows: Added function get_os_version_str() to show OS flavor in
3092 [CF] Windows: Added function ata_identify_is_cached() to check for outdated
3093 SMART enabled bit in identify data.

3099 DK23FA-20J), Seagate Momentus family, and Maxtor Fireball 3 family
3100 to knowndrives table.
3102 [PW] Added missing Maxtor DiamondMax 16, Seagate Barracuda ATA IV, and
3103 Western Digital Caviar WDxxxAA/WDxxxBA drives to knowndrives table.
3105 [CF] Windows: Added ATA check power mode for smartd -n directive.
3107 [CF] Windows: Fixed use of new service status flag which causes hang
3108 of smartd service on WinNT4.
3110 [CF] Windows: Fixed error checking of IOCTL_IDE_PASS_THROUGH (used
3111 for READ_LOG on 2000/XP). Added some diagnostic messages on
3112 -r ataioctl[,2]. Thanks to Manfred Schwarb for bug report and testing.
3114 [BA] Fixed code bug that made it impossible to enable SMART on
3115 disks with failing health status. This would happen if the
3116 os_*.c author made STATUS and STATUS_CHECK work the same way.
3117 I have corrected this at a higher level; we now handle the
3118 case where STATUS and STATUS_CHECK are identical without
3121 [LW] Make os_linux.c/marvell_command_interface() always return 0 on STATUS.
3122 Needed for a disk having bad SMART status.
3124 [CF] smartctl: Added drive family printing.
3126 [CF] autogen.sh: Allow automake 1.9, added message if automake
3129 [BA] smartctl: use locale-specific separators for printing disk
3130 capacity. Also use AC_CHECK_HEADERS not AC_CHECK_HEADER in
3133 [BA] clean-up of #include structure so that -V options to smartd
3134 and smartctl work correctly. Please, don't #include header
3135 files into other header files.
3137 smartmontools 5.33 Experimental Release
3139 [BA] smartctl: ATA disks, if SMART ATTRIBUTE THRESHOLDS page has ID
3140 errors with some Attributes having NULL IDs, print Attribute
3141 info anyway (but issuing a warning to the user).
3143 [DG] [SCSI] Decode Last n error events log page; decode track following
3144 and positioning errors [Hitachi]
3146 [EM] FreeBSD: another tweak, __packed__ introduced in Version 5.0040
3148 [EM] Cleaner tweak of fixes for FreeBSD 4.x.
3150 [EM] Fix compilation errors under FreeBSD 4.x, as it is still using
3153 [EM] Remove 3ware/FreeBSD specific files and just include pieces we need
3155 [DG] Add logic in smartd to detect 3ware, Marvell controllers and SATA
3156 disks behind an ATA-SCSI simulator (in Linux). If specific device
3157 types are not given and they are picked in a general SCSI device
3158 scan then warn and skip.
3160 [GG] insert correct path to smartd into smartd's init script
3162 [BA] Changed all default paths in documentation to reflect /usr/local as
3163 default path prefix. This affects on-line man pages, primarily.
3165 [DS] Added support for OpenBSD
3167 [BA] Added another environment variable SMART_FULLMESSAGE set by
3168 the smartd mailing feature, and modified examplescripts/Example1

3183 actual Marvell 88SX5041 hardware, with success.
3186 [BA] Fixed nasty DEVICESCAN bug
3188 [BA] Checked in RELEASE_5_33_WITH_MARVELL_SUPPORT branch with
3189 some Marvell support.
3191 [BA] Additional modifications of Ed's controller scheme. Fixed
3192 broken 3ware support under linux, problems with scanning
3193 devices in smartd, and other small problems.
3195 [CF] Added make targets to build formatted man pages (htmlman, txtman),
3196 Windows distribution (dist-win32) and MSVC6 config.h (config-vc6).
3198 [EM] Minor change to FreeBSD inclusion of 'twe' include files. Add
3199 code to check if they exising in /usr/include/sys to use those
3200 in preference to ones added here
3202 [EM] Very preliminary support attempt for 3Ware controllers under
3203 FreeBSD. Also, switched 'escalade_type/escalade_port' to
3204 'controler_type/controller_port' and moved away from
3205 'tryata/tryscsi' to using new 'controller*' variables to
3206 determine which controller type (ATA/SCSI/3Ware) to use.
3208 [GK] Added initscript support for Darwin.
3210 [CF] Windows smartd: Added ability to run smartd as a windows service,
3211 including new commands "smartd install ..." and "smartd remove"
3212 to install and remove the service registry entry.
3214 [BA] smartd: warn user if -s regexp regular expression contains
3215 characters other than 0123456789.*()|+?[-]{}:=SLCO since such
3216 characters are 'suspicous' and may indicate a poorly formed
3217 regexp. Extended regular expression gurus: can this list be
3220 [CF] Fixed bug in Windows smartd: Missing close of config file when
3221 configuration is reloaded by smartd daemon.
3223 [CF] Windows smartd: Added mail warning feature using the "Blat"
3224 (http://blat.sourceforge.net/) mailer as a default.
3226 [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 5120 Ultra ATA 33 series and TOSHIBA
3227 MK3017GAP to knowndrives table.
3229 [CF] Added fixes to build smartmontools on old Linux systems
3230 (libc < 6, Kernel 2.0.x).
3232 [BA] Added ATA minor version identity strings for latest ATA specification
3233 updates: ATA/ATAPI-7 T13 1532D revision 4a and ATA/ATAPI-6 published,
3234 ANSI INCITS 361-2002

3252 TOSHIBA MK2016GAP, MK2018GAP, MK2018GAS, MK2023GAS; and
3253 QUANTUM FIREBALL ST3.2A
3255 [BA] smartd/smarctl now print build HOST/OS information as part
3256 of startup slogan. This should make it slightly easier to
3257 read bug reports from users.
3259 [RZ] Fixed the DEVICESCAN to do what it was supposed to do - give
3260 error message unless scanning is in progress.
3262 [BA] Update documentation to describe 3ware character devices. Better
3263 error detection for missing/malfunctioning devices behind 3ware
3264 controllers. Now pack 3ware ioctl structures explicitly.
3266 [BA] For ATA devices that support LBA mode, print capacity as part
3269 [RZ] Made DEVICESCAN quiet about non-existing devices unless debug
3272 [DG] treat "unit attention" SCSI warning as try again in some contexts
3273 (test unit ready and mode sense)
3275 [BA] on drives that store max/min rather than min/max, get order
3276 correct in printing temp.
3278 [BA] fixed typo in 'smartctl -h' output. Thanks to Gabor Z. Papp.
3280 [BA] linux: clean-up to 3ware/AMCC support; dynamically create
3281 or fix /dev/tw[ae][0-15] device node entries if they don't
3282 exist or are incorrect. One can now use the character devices
3283 /dev/twe[0-15] OR /dev/sd? for 3ware 6000/7000/8000 series
3284 cards. One must use /dev/twa[0-15] for 3ware 9000 series cards.
3285 Note that selective self-tests now work via /dev/tw[ae] devices.
3286 Next step: documentation.
3288 [BA] linux: experimental "support" for 3ware/AMCC 9000 series
3289 controllers that use the 3w-9xxx driver. This will be in a
3290 state of flux for a few days. Note that this requires the
3291 character interface /dev/twa[0-15].
3293 [DG] linux: extend general SCSI OS interface to use the SG_IO ioctl. If
3294 not available, use the older SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND ioctl.
3296 [KS] Solaris/x86: fixed system identification problem in configure
3297 script. Thanks to Stuart Swales.
3301 [BA] Update link to revised/updated IBM Deskstar Firmware

3332 the missing Fujitsu MHSxxxxAT drives.
3334 [KS] Solaris: added workaround for dynamic change of time-zone.
3336 [KS] Solaris: fixed problem that autogen.sh cannot detect absence of
3339 [BA] smartd: added time-zone bug information to man page.
3340 Reverted CF code for _WIN32 case.

3345 [BA] added additional Attribute definitions from
3346 http://smart.friko.pl/attributes.php
3348 [BA] smartd: reworked TimeZone bug workaround so it is only invoked
3349 for glibc. Note: this might not be right -- a similar bug may
3350 exist in other platform's libcs.
3352 [DG] SCSI smartmontools documentation updated [2004/5/6]. See:
3353 http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/smartmontools_scsi.html
3355 [CF] Windows: Fixed reset of TZ=GMT in glibc timezone bug workaround.
3359 [DG] move SCSI device temperature and start-stop log page output
3360 (smartctl) into --attributes section (was in --info section).

3378 To exit smartd in debug mode, type CONTROL-C twice.
3380 [BA] smartctl: printing of the selective self-test log is now
3381 controlled by a new option: -l selective
3383 [BA] Added entries for Samsung firmware versions -25 to -39 based
3384 on latest info about firmware bug fixes.
3386 [PW] Added Seagate U Series X family, Seagate U8 family, and Seagate
3387 Medalist 8641 family to knowndrives table.

3391 [BA] smartd: now monitor the Current Pending Sector count (Attribute 197)
3392 and the Offline Pending Sector Count (Attribute 198). Log a
3393 warning (and send an email, if so configured) if the raw count
3394 is nonzero. These are controlled by new Directives: -C and -U.
3395 Currently they are enabled by default.
3397 [CF] Added option -c FILE, --configfile=FILE to smartd to specify
3398 an alternate configuration FILE or '-' for standard input.

3403 lines into one single event log entry.
3405 [CF] Win32 smartd: Added DEVICESCAN for SCSI/ASPI devices.
3407 [GG] Use gethostbyname() the get the DNS domain since getdomainname()
3408 returns the NIS domain when sending mails from smartd.
3410 [GG] smartd.init.in: pass smartd_opts to smartd on startup, read distribution
3411 specific configuration files if found
3413 [SS] smartctl: added NetBSD support for Selective Self-tests.
3415 [BA] smartd.conf example configuration file now has all examples
3416 commented out except for 'DEVICESCAN'.
3418 [CF] Win32/native smartd: Added ability to display warning "emails"
3419 as message box by "-m msgbox" directive. With "-m sysmsgbox",
3420 a system modal (always on top) message box is shown.
3422 [BA] smartctl: printing of self-test log for disks that support
3423 Selective self-testing now shows the status of the (optional)
3424 read-scan after the selective self test. Also, changed format
3425 in printing self-test log to print failing LBA in base 10 not
3426 base 16 (more compatible with kernel error messages). Also,
3427 in printing SMART error log, print timestamps in format
3428 days+hours+minutes+seconds.
3430 [CF] Win32 smartd: Added ability to log to stdout/stderr
3431 (-l local1/2). Toggling debug console still works
3432 if stdout is redirected.
3434 [BA] smartctl: selective self-test log, print current status
3435 in a more detailed way. Allow writing of selective self-test
3436 log provided that no other self-test is underway.
3438 [BA] Linux: eliminated dependency on kernel tree hdreg.h.
3440 [BA] smartctl: -l selftest option now prints Selective self-test
3441 log in addition to the normal self-test log.
3442 Added additional options (-t pending, -t afterselect) to
3443 control remaining Selective Self-test capabilities. Tested
3444 with several Maxtor disks. Modified error message printing
3445 so that munged option messages print at the end not the
3448 [CF] Added daemon support to Win32 native version of smartd.
3449 The daemon can be controlled by commands similar to initd
3450 scripts: "smartd status|stop|reload|restart|sigusr1|sigusr2".
3452 [CF] Added minor support for option "-l local[0-7]" to Win32 native
3453 (not Cygwin) version of smartd. If specified, the log output
3454 is written to file "./smartd[1-7]?.log" instead of event log.
3456 [BA] Added Selective Self-test to smartctl (-t selective,M-N).
3457 Currently only supported under Linux; Solaris, NetBSD, FreeBSD
3458 and Windows developers must add WRITE LOG functionality to
3461 [BA] Added workaround for an annoying glibc bug: if you change
3462 timezones, (eg, flying with a laptop from USA to Europe)
3463 localtime() does not notice this in a running
3464 executable, so time that appears in the system log (syslog!)
3465 will be incorrect. See
3466 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=48184
3467 for additional examples of this bug.
3469 [DG] Set explicit timeouts for SCSI commands (most default to 6 seconds).
3470 Previously a 0 second timeout was meant to be interpreted as a
3471 default timeout but the FreeBSD port had a problem in this area.
3473 [CF] Fixed un-thread-safe exit signal handler for Win32
3475 [BA] Fixed un-thread-safe exit signal handler pointed out
3478 [BA] Changed configure script to eliminate warnings under
3479 Solaris from sys/int_type.h conflicts with int64.h
3480 Added header files for umask to smartd.c.
3482 [BA] Man page format change from Werner LEMBERG. " " changed to \&
3484 [CF] Added os_win32/syslogevt.* event message file tool for Win32
3485 smartd (native+cygwin). May also be useful for other cygwin
3486 programs writing to syslog().
3488 [CF] Added Win32 version of smartd
3490 [CF] Merged RELEASE_5_26_WIN32_BRANCH
3492 [BA] Made some changes to man page markup suggested by
3493 Richard Verhoeven to work around bugs in man2html.
3494 Tested not to break anything under Linux and Solaris.
3496 [CF] Moved PrintOut() from utility.c to smart{ctl,d}.c to avoid
3497 syslog() output of smartctl.
3499 [BA] Grew worried that some time-zone names could be very long (eg,
3500 Mitteleuropaische Zeit) and put date string lengths into a
3501 single macro in utility.c
3503 [EM] Updated os_freebsd.c to handle older versions of FreeBSD in a
3504 more appropriate/obvious fashion.
3506 [EM] Modified autogen.sh as FreeBSD installs automake 1.7 as
3507 'automake17' and NOT 'automake-1.7'
3511 [PW] Added QUANTUM FIREBALLlct15 30, QUANTUM FIREBALLlct20 40, and
3512 Maxtor 6Y060P0 (DiamondMax Plus 9 60GB) to knowndrives table.
3514 [PW] Added Maxtor MaXLine II family to knowndrives table (thanks to
3515 Brett Russ for submitting the patch).
3517 [BA] Added remaining read/write commands to detailed list of
3518 error log commands that have text descriptions of problem
3519 printed. For commands that support it, print number of failed
3520 sectors at problem LBA.
3522 [BA] Made SuSE section of smartd init script more SuSE 9 compatible.
3523 Thanks to Hans-Peter Jansen.
3525 [CF] Windows smartd: Added IDE/ATA device scan
3526 Added windows device names to smartctl.8.in, smartd.8.in
3528 [BA] smartctl/smartd: user-provided '-F samsung' and '-F samsung2'
3529 command line options/Directives did NOT over-ride preset values
3530 unless user specified '-P ignore'. Now they will always over-ride
3531 preset values from the database.
3533 [BA] Added error decoding for a few more READ and WRITE commands.
3535 [PW] Added Maxtor MaXLine Plus II, Western Digital Caviar SE (Serial ATA)
3536 series, Hitachi Deskstar 7K250 series, and Ultra ATA 66 models of
3537 the Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 40 series to knowndrives table.
3539 [BA] Added Maxtor Diamondmax 250 GB drives to database. Note that
3540 these model numbers are not listed in Maxtor documentation, but
3543 [BA] Removed the 'contact developers' phrase from the Samsung disk
3546 [PW] Added TOSHIBA MK2017GAP, IBM Deskstar 14GXP and 16GP series,
3547 Fujitsu MPC series, Seagate Barracuda ATA III family, and missing
3548 Seagate Barracuda U Series drives to knowndrives table
3550 [BA] smartd: wrong loglevel for message: Configuration file
3551 /etc/smartd.conf parsed. Changed to LOG_INFO from LOG_CRIT.
3552 Thanks to Emmanuel CHANTREAU for the report.
3554 [CF] Checked in development version of windows code base.
3556 smartmontools 5.29 (note: there was NO 5.28 release)
3558 [BA] smartd: configure script did not set correct directory to search for
3559 smartd.conf based on --prefix argument to ./configure. Thanks to
3560 GG for identifying the problem and fix.
3562 [BA] make clean now removes man pages (generated from *.in) files as well
3565 [EM] Correct copying of sense data in FreeBSD SCSI implementation. Thanks
3566 to Sergey Svishchev for noticing the bug.
3568 [BA] On solaris, wrong warning message if no ATA support. Warning message
3569 concerns 3ware controller, not ATA.
3571 [SS] Added SCSI support for NetBSD.
3573 [BA] on big-endian linux machines, fixed interpretation of HDIO_GET_IDENTITY
3574 to correctly identify ATAPI bit (was byte swapped). This should
3575 eliminate some SYSLOG noise if user queries a packet device (eg, CD
3578 [PW] Removed warning for IBM Deskstar 40GV & 75GXP series drives with
3579 A5AA/A6AA firmware. Thanks to Gerald Schnabel.
3581 [PW] Added Toshiba TOS MK3019GAXB SUN30G to knowndrives table
3583 [PW] Added Western Digital Caviar AC12500, AC24300, AC25100, AC36400,
3584 and AC38400 to knowndrives table
3586 [BA] When printing ATA error log, print the LBA at which READ
3587 or WRITE commands failed.
3589 [BA] Changed syntax of error message in smartctl
3591 [BA] Added versioning info (-V options to smartd/smartctl) for
3596 [KS] Added ATA/IDE support for Solaris/SPARC (ATA/IDE not yet for
3599 [BA] 3ware controllers: documented that one can monitor any of the
3600 physical disks from any of the 3ware /dev/sd? logical devices.
3601 Better warnings if querying a disk that does not exist.
3603 [PW] Added Hitachi Travelstar DK23DA series, Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 40
3604 series, Western Digital Caviar WDxxxAA, WDxxxBA, and WDxxxAB series
3605 to knowndrives table
3607 [BA] missing 'pragma pack' on ATA IDENTIFY DEVICE structure may have
3608 caused odd or incorrect results on 64-bit machines.
3610 [BA] smartctl/smartd allow inspection of self-test and error logs even
3611 if disk firmware claims that these don't exist. This is needed
3612 for some Maxtor disks whose firmware does not indicate log support
3613 even though the disk DOES support it.
3615 [BA] Improved porting instructions and documentation in os_generic.c
3617 [PW] Add Western Digital Caviar WD136AA and SAMSUNG SP40A2H (RR100-07
3618 firmware) to knowndrives table.
3620 [EM] FreeBSD: remove extra definition of FreeNonZero
3622 [BA] smartctl: the -q silent option was printing output for some
3623 error conditions. Fixed. Will rename relevant variables to help
3624 avoid these errors in the future.
3626 [SS] NetBSD port added.
3628 [BA] more sensible error messages for devfs and devfs-like systems.
3629 Instead of saying that the DIRECTORY does not exist, say that
3630 the DEVICE does not exist.
3632 [BA] smartd: added -n Directive, to prevent disk spin-up depending
3633 upon the power mode (SLEEP, STANDBY, or IDLE).
3635 [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax 20 VL series, Fujitsu MPF series,
3636 Maxtor DiamondMax 36 series, Maxtor DiamondMax 4320 series, and
3637 Maxtor DiamondMax 536DX series to knowndrives table.
3639 [BA] many warning messages now give the file name AND VERSION
3641 [BA] smartd: when the user provides multiple address recipients
3642 to the '-m' Directive in a comma-delineated list, the commas
3643 are stripped out before passing the list of addresses to the
3644 mailer program. (Thanks to Calin A. Culianu for pointing this out
3645 and providing a patch.)
3647 [BA] smartd: when the '-M exec path' Directive is used, any stdout OR
3648 stderr output from the executable "path" is assumed to indicate a
3649 problem, and is echoed to SYSLOG.
3651 [BA] Added all missing IBM/Hitachi Deskstar 180GXP models to knowndrives
3654 [PW] Added some missing IBM/Hitachi Deskstar 120GXP models to knowndrives
3657 [PW] Added IBM Travelstar 14GS to knowndrives table.
3659 [PW] Modified knowndrives table to match entire Hitachi Travelstar
3660 DK23BA and DK23EA series of drives (thanks to Norikatsu Shigemura
3661 for submitting the patch).
3663 [PW] Added some missing Fujitsu MPE series drives to knowndrives table.
3665 [PW] Added TOSHIBA MK4019GAX, TOSHIBA MK6409MAV, and QUANTUM
3666 FIREBALLlct15 20 to knowndrives table.
3668 [EM] Fixup example command output for FreeBSD
3670 [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax 80 family to knowndrives table.
3672 [EM] Catch up FreeBSD code to switch PROJECTHOME to PACKAGE_HOMEPAGE
3675 [BA] smartd: now watches stdout/stderr when trying to run mail, mailx
3676 or mail warning script, and reports any output to SYSLOG. This
3677 gives a clearer error message if something is wrong.
3679 [BA] smartd: Solaris init script modified to accomodate grep that
3680 lacks '-q' quiet option. Also check for running process to kill
3683 [PW] Added some missing Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 and 7200.7 Plus drives
3684 to knowndrives table.
3686 [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 60 family and Seagate U Series 5 20413
3687 to knowndrives table.
3689 [BA] smartd: under Solaris, made default mailer be 'mailx' not
3690 'mail', since Solaris 'mail' does not accept a '-s' argument.
3691 A workaround for Solaris users of earlier versions is to
3692 have '-M exec /bin/mailx' in their smartd.conf config file.
3694 [DG] some SCSI controllers don't like odd length transfers so make
3695 sure LOG SENSE transfers are rounded up to an even number when
3696 and odd length is reported (i.e. there is a double fetch, the
3697 first to find the length, the second gets the data)
3699 [BA] smartd man pages: under Solaris, correct section numbers in the
3702 [KS/BA] smartd man page: describe how to set Solaris syslog.conf
3703 file to catch all messages. Give correct Solaris SYSLOG default
3704 path /var/adm/messages in man pages.
3706 [BA] smartd: incorporated Debian startup script submitted by user.
3708 [BA] smartctl: modified printing of self-test log entry number. Seagate
3709 firmware can leave 'holes' in the self-test log while a test is
3710 actually running. We now print entry numbers consistently in this
3711 case, not assuming that entries are contiguous.
3713 [PW] Added QUANTUM FIREBALL CX10.2A and Western Digital Caviar AC23200L
3714 to knowndrives table.
3716 [PW] Added QUANTUM FIREBALLlct20 20 to knowndrives table.
3718 [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax Plus D740X family to knowndrives table.
3720 [PW] Added IBM Travelstar 32GH, 30GT, and 20GN family to knowndrives
3723 [BA] Slackware init script modified to search for /etc/slackware-version
3724 rather than /etc/slackware-release.
3726 [PW] Added Seagate Barracuda ATA II family and TOSHIBA MK4019GAXB to
3729 [GG] explain howto use autoreconf in autogen.sh
3731 [KS] Makefile.am/configure.in: changed manual page sections for
3734 [BA] smartd: reduced number of scheduled self-test messages if
3735 test already run in current hour.
3737 [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 8 family to knowndrives table.
3739 [BA] linux: check for linux/hdreg.h. If it's there, use it. If
3740 not, provide the necessary definitions ourselves.
3742 [PW] Removed warning for IBM Deskstar 40GV & 75GXP series drives
3743 with TXAOA5AA firmware
3745 [PW] Added IBM Travelstar 25GS, 18GT, and 12GN family to knowndrives
3748 [PW] Added IBM/Hitachi Travelstar 60GH & 40GN family to knowndrives
3751 [BA] smartd: made '-s' Directive more efficient. Now store
3752 compiled regex, and re-use. If device lacks certain self-test
3753 capabilities, track it and don't try again.
3755 [BA] smartd: made memory allocation for device lists completely
3756 dynamic (eliminating compile-time maximum length constants).
3758 [PW] Removed warning for SAMSUNG SP0802N with TK100-23 firmware
3760 [PW] Added Seagate Barracuda ATA IV family to knowndrives table.
3762 [BA] smartd: reduce per-device memory footprint by making
3763 mail-warning info dynamically allocated. Also remove
3764 potential memory leak if use has -m Directive twice and
3765 keeps reloading the config file (highly unlikely this would
3768 [DG] smartd: added SCSI scheduled self-tests (Background
3771 [BA] smartd: can now run scheduled offline immediate and
3772 self-tests. See man page and -s Directive for details.
3774 [GG] don't include manpages in make-dist-tarball.
3776 [BA] smartctl: on-line examples given with -h are now correct
3777 for solaris and linux, but wrong for freebsd. Ed?
3779 [BA] smartd: man page now explains device scanning for solaris as
3780 well as linux and freebsd.
3782 [BA] smartd/smartctl: man pages now report correct CVS tag release
3783 date, and executables '-V' options reports more build info.
3787 [BA] Improved user messages that appear from 'make install'
3789 [PW] Removed warning for SAMSUNG SP1213N with firmware TL100-23
3791 [BA] incorporated SuSE init script from user.
3793 [DG] if SCSI device is read only, then open it read only.
3795 [BA] when compiled on non-supported system (NOT linux, freebsd or solaris) then
3796 the run-time error messages now clearly say 'your system is not supported'
3797 and give clear directions.
3799 [BA] ./configure script now works correctly on SuSE linux boxes
3801 [BA] minor improvements to man pages
3803 [BA] simplified detection of packet (ATAPI, CD) devices.
3805 [BA] init script (redhat, mandrake, yellowdog) now uses correct
3806 strings for translation and is slightly more standard.
3808 [DG] smartctl: output scsi Seagate vendor pages for disks (not tapes)
3812 Note: there was no '5.24' release. From this point on, even numbered
3813 releases will be 'stable' ones and odd numbered releases will be
3814 unstable/testing/development ones.
3816 [DG] smartd/smartctl: changed scsiClearControlGLTSD() to
3817 scsiSetControlGLTSD() with an 'enabled' argument so '-S on'
3818 and '-S off' work for SCSI devices (if changing GLTSD supported).
3820 [BA] smartd/smartctl: wired in scsiClearControlGLTSD(). Could still
3821 use a corresponding Set function. Left stubs for this purpose.
3823 [DG] scsicmds: added scsiClearControlGLTSD() [still to be wired in]
3825 [BA] smartctl: make SCSI -T options behave the same way as the
3828 [DG] smartctl: output scsi transport protocol if available
3830 [DG] scsi: stop device scan in smartd and smartctl if badly formed
3831 mode response [heuristic to filter out USB devices before we
3832 (potentially) lock them up].
3834 [BA] smartd: deviceclose()->CloseDevice(). Got rid of SCSIDEVELOPMENT
3835 macro-enabled code. Added -W to list of gcc specific options to
3836 always enable. Made code clean for -W warnings.
3838 [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax VL 30 family to knowndrives table.
3840 [DG] scsi: add warning (when '-l error' active) if Control mode page
3841 GLTSD bit is set (global disable of saving log counters)
3843 [DG] scsi: remember mode sense cmd length. Output trip temperature
3844 from IE lpage (IBM extension) when unavailable from temp lpage.
3846 [BA] smartd: for both SCSI and ATA now warns user if either
3847 the number of self-test errors OR timestamp of most
3848 recent self-test error have increased.
3850 [DG] smartctl: output Seagate scsi Cache and Factory log pages (if
3851 available) when vendor attributes chosen
3853 [DG] smartd: add scsiCountFailedSelfTests() function.
3855 [DG] Do more sanity checking of scsi log page responses.
3857 [BA] smartd: now warns user if number of self-test errors has
3858 increased for SCSI devices.
3860 [BA] smartd: warn user if number of ATA self-test errors increases
3861 (as before) OR if hour time stamp of most recent self-test
3864 [DG] More checks for well formed mode page responses. This has the side
3865 effect of stopping scans on bad SCSI implementations (e.g. some
3866 USB disks) prior to sending commands (typically log sense) that
3869 [PW] Added Western Digital Caviar family and Caviar SE family to
3872 [BA] smartd: added -l daemon (which is the default value if -l
3875 [PW] Added Seagate Barracuda ATA V family to knowndrives table.
3877 [BA] smartd: added additional command line argument -l FACILITY
3878 or --logfacility FACILITY. This can be used to redirect
3879 messages from smartd to a different file than the one used
3880 by other system daemons.
3882 [PW] Added Seagate Barracuda 7200.7, Western Digital Protege WD400EB,
3883 and Western Digital Caviar AC38400 to knowndrives table.
3885 [BA] smartd: scanning should now also work correctly for
3886 devfs WITHOUT traditional links /dev/hd[a-t] or /dev/sd[a-z].
3888 [PW] Added Maxtor 4W040H3, Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 Plus,
3889 IBM Deskstar 120GXP (40GB), Seagate U Series 20410,
3890 Fujitsu MHM2100AT, MHL2300AT, MHM2150AT, and IBM-DARA-212000
3891 to knowndrives table.
3893 [PW] Added remaining Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 9 models to knowndrives
3896 [EM] smartd: If no matches found, then return 0, rather than an error
3897 indication, as it just means no devices of the given type exist.
3898 Adjust FreeBSD scan code to mirror Linux version.
3900 [BA] smartd: made device scan code simpler and more robust. If
3901 too many devices detected, warn user but scan as many
3902 as possible. If error in scanning, warn user but don't
3905 [EM] smartd: To keep as consistent as possible, migrate FreeBSD
3906 devicescan code to also use glob(3). Also verified clean
3907 compile on a 4.7 FreeBSD system.
3909 [BA] smartd: Modified device scan code to use glob(3). Previously
3910 it appeared to have trouble when scanning devices on an XFS
3911 file system, and used non-public interface to directory
3912 entries. Problems were also reported when /dev/ was on an
3913 ext2/3 file system, but there was a JFS partition on the same
3916 [BA] Clearer error messages when device scanning finds no suitable
3919 [EM] FreeBSD: Fixup code to allow for proper compilation under
3924 [BA] smartd: didn't close file descriptors of ATA packet devices
3925 that are scanned. Fixed.
3927 [BA] Added reload/report targets to the smartmontools init script.
3928 reload: reloads config file
3929 report: send SIGUSR1 to check devices now
3933 [EM] Fix compile issues for FreeBSD < 5-CURRENT.
3935 [PW] Added Fujitsu MHM2200AT to knowndrives table.
3937 [BA] To help catch bugs, clear ATA error structures before all
3938 ioctl calls. Disable code that attempted to time-out on SCSI
3939 devices when they hung (doesn't work).
3941 [BA] Documented STATUS/ERROR flags added by [PW] below.
3943 [BA] Improved algorithm to recognize ATA packet devices. Should
3944 no longer generate SYSLOG kernel noise when user tries either
3945 smartd or smartctl on packet device (CD-ROM or DVD). Clearer
3946 warning messages from smartd when scanning ATA packet device.
3948 [PW] Added TOSHIBA MK4025GAS to knowndrives table.
3950 [PW] Added a textual interpretation of the status and error registers
3951 in the SMART error log (ATA). The interpretation is
3952 command-dependent and currently only eight commands are supported
3953 (those which produced errors in the error logs that I happen to
3956 [BA] added memory allocation tracking to solaris code.
3957 Fixed solaris signal handling (reset handler to default
3958 after first call to handler) by using sigset. Added
3959 HAVE_SIGSET to configure.in
3961 [CD] solaris port: added SCSI functionality to solaris
3964 [BA] smartd: attempt to address bug report about smartd
3965 hanging on USB devices when scanning:
3966 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=107615
3967 Set a timeout of SCSITIMEOUT (nominally 7 seconds) before
3970 [EM] smartd: DEVICESCAN will follow links in a devfs filesystem and
3971 make sure the end point is a disc. Update documentation, added
3972 note about FreeBSD scanning
3974 [BA] smartd: DEVICESCAN also looks for block devices in
3975 /dev. Updated documentation. Now scans for up to
3976 20 ATA devices /dev/hda-t rather than previous 12
3979 [EM] smartd: mirror the FreeBSD DEVICESCAN logic for Linux,
3980 so that smartd now scans only devices found in /dev/. Also,
3981 make utility memory functions take a line number and file so
3982 that we report errors with the correct location.
3984 [GG] add a note about Debian bug #208964 to WARNINGS.
3986 [BA] smartctl: -T verypermissive option broken. Use
3987 -T verpermissive until the next release, please.
3989 [BA] Syntax mods so that code also compiles on Solaris using
3990 Sun Workshop compiler. Need -xmemalign 1i -xCC flags
3995 [DK] Changed configure.in so -Wall is only included if gcc
3996 is used (this is a gcc specific flag) and -fsignedchar
3997 is not used at all (this is a gcc specific compiler
4000 [BA] Modifications so that code now compiles under solaris. Now
4001 all that's needed (:-) is to fill in os_solaris.[hc]. Added
4002 os_generic.[hc] as guide to future ports. Fixed -D option
4003 of smartd (no file name). Modified -h opt of smartd/smartctl
4004 to work properly with solaris getopt().
4006 [EM] Update MAN pages with notes that 3ware drives are NOT supported
4007 under FreeBSD. Cleanup FreeBSD warning message handling.
4009 [EM] FreeBSD only: Fix first user found bug....I guess I was making
4010 the wrong assumption on how to convert ATA devnames to
4011 channel/unit numbers.
4013 [EM] Allow for option --enable-sample to append '.sample' to installed
4014 smartd.conf and rc script files. Also, let rc script shell setting
4015 be determined by configure
4017 [EM] Minor autoconf update to include -lcam for FreeBSD
4019 [EM] Add conditional logic to allow FreeBSD to compile pre-ATAng.
4021 Add some documentation to INSTALL for FreeBSD.
4023 [EM] Implement SCSI CAM support for FreeBSD. NOTE: I am not an expert
4024 in the use of CAM. It seems to work for me, but I may be doing
4025 something horribly wrong, so please exercise caution.
4027 [EM] Switch over to using 'atexit' rather than 'on_exit' routine. This also
4028 meant we needed to save the exit status elsewhere so our 'Goodbye'
4029 routine could examine it.
4031 [EM] Move the DEVICESCAN code to os specific files. Also moved some of the
4032 smartd Memory functions to utility.c to make available to smartctl.
4034 [EM] Code janitor work on os_freebsd.c.
4036 [EM] Added os_freebsd.[hc] code. Additional code janitor
4039 [BA] Code janitor working, moving OS dependent code into
4042 [GG] conditionally compile os_{freebsd,linux}.o depending on
4045 [PW] Print estimated completion time for tests
4047 [BA] Added -F samsung2 flag to correct firmware byte swap.
4048 All samsung drives with *-23 firmware revision string.
4052 [GG] Fixed broken Makefile.am (zero length smartd.conf.5
4053 was being created), fix broken uninstall/distcheck targets
4055 [FM] Improved Slackware init script added to /etc/smartd.initd
4057 smartmontools 5.19 [NOTE CHANGE OF RELEASE NUMBERING]
4059 [BA] smartctl: added '-T verypermissive' option which is
4060 equivalent to giving '-T permissive' many times.
4062 [BA] Try harder to identify from IDENTIFY DEVICE structure
4063 if SMART supported/enabled. smartd now does a more
4064 thorough job of trying to assess this before sending
4065 a SMART status command to find out for sure.
4067 [BA] smartctl: it's now possible to override the program's
4068 guess of the device type (ATA or SCSI) with -d option.
4070 [BA] try hard to avoid sending IDENTIFY DEVICE to packet
4071 devices (CDROMS). They can't do SMART, and this generates
4072 annoying syslog messages. At the same time, identify type
4075 [BA] smartctl: Can now use permissive option more
4076 than once, to control how far to go before giving up.
4078 [BA] smartd: if user asked to monitor either error or self-test
4079 logs (-l error or -l selftest) WITHOUT monitoring any of the
4080 Attribute values, code will SEGV. For 5.1-18 and earlier,
4081 a good workaround is to enable Auto offline (-o on).
4083 [BA] smartctl: If enable auto offline command given, update auto
4084 offline status before printing capabilities.
4086 [GG] Make autotools build the default, remove autotools.diff
4088 [GG] Add auto{conf,make} support, not enabled by default.
4090 [BA] Eliminated #include <linux/hdreg.h> from code. This
4091 should simplify porting to solaris, FreeBSD, etc. The
4092 only linux-specific code is now isolated to three routines,
4093 one for SCSI, one for Escalade, one for ATA.
4095 smartmontools 5.1-18
4097 [BA] smartd: fixed serious bug - Attributes not monitored unless
4098 user told smartd to ignore at least one of them!
4100 smartmontools 5.1-17
4102 [BA] Default runlevels for smartd changed from 3 and 5 to
4105 [BA] Removed as much dynamic memory allocation as possible from
4106 configuration file parsing. Reloading config file, even in
4107 presence of syntax errors etc. should not cause memory leaks.
4109 [PW] It is no longer permissible for the integer part (if any) of
4110 arguments to --report and --device to be followed by non-digits.
4111 For example, the "foo" in --report=ioctl,2foo was previously
4112 ignored, but now causes an error.
4114 [BA] smartd: added -q/--quit command line option to specify
4115 under what circumstances smartd should exit. The old
4116 -c/--checkonce option is now obsoleted by this more
4117 general-purpose option.
4119 [BA] smartd now responds to a HUP signal by re-reading its
4120 configuration file /etc/smartd.conf. If there are
4121 errors in this file, then the configuration file is
4122 ignored and smartd continues to monitor the devices that
4123 it was monitoring prior to receiving the HUP signal.
4125 [BA] Now correctly get SMART status from disks behind 3ware
4126 controllers, thanks to Adam Radford. Need 3w-xxxx driver
4127 version 1.02.00.037 or later. Previously the smartmontools
4128 SMART status always returned "OK" for 3ware controllers.
4130 [BA] Additional work on dynamic memory allocation/deallocation.
4131 This should have no effect on smartctl, but clears that way
4132 for smartd to dynamically add and remove entries. It should
4133 also now be easier to modify smartd to re-read its config
4134 file on HUP (which is easy) without leaking memory (which is
4135 harder). The philosophy is that memory for data structures in
4136 smartd is now allocated only on demand, the first time it
4139 [BA] smartd: finished cleanup. Now use create/rm functions for
4140 cfgentries and dynamic memory allocation almost everywhere.
4141 Philosophy: aggresively try and provoke SEGV to help find
4144 [BA] Added SAMSUNG SV0412H to knowndrives table.
4146 [BA] smartd: if DEVICESCAN used then knowndrives table might not set
4147 the -v attributes correctly -- may have been the same for all
4148 the drives. Cleaned up some data structures and memory
4149 allocation to try and ensure segvs if such problems are
4152 [BA] Now allow -S on and -o on for the 3ware device type. For these
4153 commands to be passed through, the stock 3ware 3w-xxxx driver
4154 must be patched (8 lines). I'll post a patch on the smartmontools
4155 home page after it's been tested by a few other people and 3ware
4156 have had a chance to look it over.
4158 smartmontools-5.1-16
4160 [BA] smartd - can now monitor ATA drives behind 3ware controllers.
4162 [BA] smartd - changed some FATAL out of memory error messages from
4163 syslog level LOG_INFO to LOG_CRIT.
4165 [BA] smartctl - added code to look at ATA drives behind 3ware RAID
4166 controllers using the 3w-xxxx driver. Note that for technical
4167 reasons related to the 3w-xxxx driver, the "Enable Autosave",
4168 "Enable Automatic Offline" commands are not implemented.
4169 I will add this to smartd shortly.
4171 [BA] smartd - modified sleep loop, so that smartd no longer comes
4172 on the run queue every second. Instead, unless interrupted,
4173 it sleeps until the next polling time, when it wakes up. Now
4174 smartd also tries to wake up at exactly the right
4175 intervals (nominally 30 min) even if the user has been sending
4178 [GG] add Fujitsu MHN2300AT to vendoropts_9_seconds.
4180 [EB] Fujitsu change in knowndrives ... match the whole MPD and
4181 MPE series for vendoropts_9_seconds.
4183 [BA] smartd bug, might cause segv if a device can not be opened. Was
4184 due to missing comma in char* list. Consequence is that email
4185 failure messages might have had the wrong Subject: heading for
4186 errorcount, FAILEDhealthcheck, FAILEDreadsmartdata, FAILEDreadsmarterrorlog,
4187 FAILEDreadsmartsefltestlog, FAILEDopendevice were all displaced by
4188 one. And FAILEDopendevice might have caused a segv if -m was being
4189 used as a smartd Directive.
4191 smartmontools-5.1-15
4193 [BA] Cleaned up smartmontools.spec so that upgrading, removing
4194 and other such operations correctly preserve running behavior
4195 and booting behavior of smartd.
4197 [BA] Improved formatting of ATA Error Log printout, and added
4198 listing of names of commands that caused the error. Added
4199 obsolete ATA-4 SMART feature commands to table, along with
4200 obsolete SFF-8035i SMART feature command.
4202 [PW] Added atacmdnames.[hc], which turn command register &
4203 feature register pairs into ATA command names.
4205 [BA] Added conveyance self-test. Some code added for selective
4206 self-tests, but #ifdefed out.
4208 [BA] Modified smartd exit status and log levels. If smartd is
4209 "cleanly" terminated, for example with SIGTERM, then its
4210 exit messages are now logged at LOG_INFO not LOG_CRIT
4212 [BA] Added Attribute IDs (Fujitsu) 0xCA - 0xCE. This is decimal
4213 202-206. Added -v switches for interpretation of Attributes
4216 [BA] Made smartmontools work with any endian order machine for:
4217 - SMART selftest log
4218 - SMART ATA error log
4219 - SMART Attributes values
4220 - SMART Attributes thesholds
4221 - IDENTIFY DEVICE information
4223 Smartmontools is now free of endian bias and works correctly
4224 on both little- and big-endian hardware. This has been tested by
4225 three independent PPC users on a variety of ATA and SCSI hardware.
4227 [DG] Check that certain SCSI command responses are well formed. If
4228 IEC mode page response is not well formed exit smartctl. This
4229 is to protect aacraid. smartd should ignore a aacraid device.
4231 smartmontools-5.1-14
4233 [BA] smartctl: added column to -A output to show if Attributes are
4234 updated only during off-line testing or also during normal
4237 smartmontools-5.1-13
4239 [BA] smartd: attempt to enable/disable automatic offline testing even
4240 if the disk appears not to support it. Now the same logic
4243 [BA] Added definition of Attribute 201, soft read error rate.
4245 [BA] Added IBM/Hitachi IC35L120AVV207-1 (GXP-180) and corresponding
4246 8MB Cache GXP-120 to drive database.
4248 [BA] smartd: if DEVICESCAN Directive used in smartd.conf, and
4249 -I, -R or -r Directives used in conjunction with this, got
4250 segv errors. Fixed by correcting memory allocation calls.
4252 [BA] smartd: enable automatic offline testing was broken due
4253 to cut-and-paste error that disabled it instead of
4254 enabling it. Thanks to Maciej W. Rozycki for pointing
4255 out the problem and solution.
4257 [BA] Fixed "spelling" of some Attribute names to replace spaces
4258 in names by underscores. (Fixed field width easier for awk
4261 [BA,GF] Added mods submitted by [GF] to support Attribute 193 being
4262 load/unload cycles. Add -v 193,loadunload option, useful for
4263 Hitachi drive DK23EA-30, and add this drive to knowndrive.c
4264 Add meaning of attribute 250 : Read error retry rate
4266 smartmontools-5.1-12
4268 [BA] Added another entry for Samsung drives to knowndrive table.
4270 [DG] Refine SCSI log sense command to do a double fetch in most cases
4271 (but not for the TapeAlert log page). Fix TapeAlert and Self Test
4272 log page response truncation.
4274 [PW] Added 'removable' argument to -d Directive for smartd. This indicates
4275 that smartd should continue (rather than exit) if the device does not
4276 appear to be present.
4278 [BA] Modified smartmontools.spec [Man pages location] and
4279 smartd.initd [Extra space kills chkconfig!] for Redhat 6.x
4280 compatibility (thanks to Gerald Schnabel).
4282 smartmontools-5.1-11
4284 [EB] Add another Fujitsu disk to knowndrives.c
4286 [GG] match for scsi/ and ide/ in case of devfs to exclude false postives
4288 [BA] If SCSI device listed in /etc/smartd.conf fails to open or do
4289 SMART stuff correctly, or not enough space
4290 to list all SCSI devices, fail with error unless
4291 -DSCSIDEVELOPMENT set during compile-time.
4293 [BA] Added automatic recognition of /dev/i* (example: /dev/ide/...)
4296 [DG] Add "Device type: [disk | tape | medium changer | ...] line to
4297 smartctl -i output for SCSI devices.
4299 [PW] Fixed bug in smartd where test email would be sent regularly (for
4300 example, daily if the user had specified -M daily) instead of just
4303 [KM] More TapeAlert work. Added translations for media changer
4304 alerts. TapeAlert support reported according to the log page
4305 presence. ModeSense not attempted for non-ready tapes (all
4306 drives do not support this after all). Get peripheral type from
4307 Inquiry even if drive info is not printed. Add QUIETON()
4308 QUIETOFF() to TapeAlert log check.
4310 [BA] Stupid bug in atacmds.c minor_str[] affected ataVersionInfo().
4311 Two missing commas meant that minor_str[] had two few elements,
4312 leading to output like this:
4313 Device Model: Maxtor 6Y120L0
4314 Serial Number: Y40BF74E
4315 Firmware Version: YAR41VW0
4316 Device is: Not in smartctl database [for details use: -P showall]
4318 ATA Standard is: 9,minutes
4320 Missing commas inserted.
4322 [BA] Fixed smartd bug. On device registration, if ATA device did
4323 not support SMART error or self-test logs but user had asked to
4324 monitor them, an attempt would be made to read them anyway,
4325 possibly generating "Drive Seek" errors. We now check that
4326 the self-test and error logs are supported before trying to
4327 access them the first time.
4329 [GG/BA] Fixed bug where if SMART ATA error log not supported,
4330 command was tried anyway. Changed some error printing to use
4333 [GG] Makefile modifications to ease packaging
4335 [DG] Did work for TapeAlerts (SCSI). Now can detect /dev/nst0 as a
4336 SCSI device. Also open SCSI devices O_NONBLOCK so they don't
4337 hang on open awaiting media. The ATA side should worry about
4338 this also: during a DEVICESCAN a cd/dvd device without media
4339 will hang. Added some TapeAlert code suggested by Kai Makisara.
4341 smartmontools-5.1-10
4343 [PW] Extended the -F option/Directive to potentially fix other firmware
4344 bugs in addition to the Samsung byte-order bug. Long option name is
4345 now --firmwarebug and the option/Directive accepts an argument
4346 indicating the type of firmware bug to fix.
4348 [BA] Fixed a bug that prevented the enable automatic off-line
4349 test feature from enabling. It also prevented the enable Attribute
4350 autosave from working. See CVS entry for additional details.
4352 [PW] Modified the -r/--report option (smartctl and smartd) to allow the
4353 user to specify the debug level as a positive integer.
4355 [BA] Added --log directory option to smartctl. If the disk
4356 supports the general-purpose logging feature set (ATA-6/7)
4357 then this option enables the Log Directory to be printed.
4358 This Log Directory shows which device logs are available, and
4359 their lengths in sectors.
4361 [PW] Added -P/--presets option to smartctl and -P Directive to smartd.
4363 [GG] Introduce different exit codes indicating the type of problem
4364 encountered for smartd.
4366 [DG] Add non-medium error count to '-l error' and extended self test
4367 duration to '-l selftest'. Get scsi IEs and temperature changes
4368 working in smartd. Step over various scsi disk problems rather
4369 than abort smartd startup.
4371 [DG] Support -l error for SCSI disks (and tapes). Output error counter
4374 [BA] Added -F/--fixbyteorder option to smartctl. This allows us to read
4375 SMART data from some disks that have byte-reversed two- and four-
4376 byte quantities in their SMART data structures.
4378 [BA] Fixed serious bug: the -v options in smartd.conf were all put
4379 together and used together, not drive-by-drive.
4381 [PW] Added knowndrives.h and knowndrives.c. The knowndrives array
4382 supersedes the drivewarnings array.
4384 [GG] add {-p,--pidfile} option to smartd to write a PID file on
4385 startup. Update the manpage accordingly.
4387 [DG] Fix scsi smartd problem detecting SMART support. More cleaning
4388 and fix (and rename) scsiTestUnitReady(). More scsi renaming.
4390 [BA] Fixed smartd so that if a disk that is explictily listed is not
4391 found, then smartd will exit with nonzero status BEFORE forking.
4392 If a disk can't be registered, this will also be detected before
4393 forking, so that init scripts can react correctly.
4395 [BA] Replaced all linux-specific ioctl() calls in atacmds.c with
4396 a generic handler smartcommandhandler(). Now the only routine
4397 that needs to be implemented for a given OS is os_specific_handler().
4398 Also implemented the --report ataioctl. This provides
4399 two levels of reporting. Using the option once gives a summary
4400 report of device IOCTL transactions. Using the option twice give
4401 additional info (a printout of ALL device raw 512 byte SMART
4402 data structures). This is useful for debugging.
4404 [DG] more scsi cleanup. Output scsi device serial number (VPD page
4405 0x80) if available as part of '-i'. Implement '-t offline' as
4406 default self test (only self test older disks support).
4408 [BA] Changed crit to info in loglevel of smartd complaint to syslog
4409 if DEVICESCAN enabled and device not found.
4411 [BA] Added -v 194,10xCelsius option/Directive. Raw Attribute number
4412 194 is ten times the disk temperature in Celsius.
4414 [DG] scsicmds.[hc] + scsiprint.c: clean up indentation, remove tabs.
4415 Introduce new intermediate interface based on "struct scsi_cmnd_io"
4416 to isolate SCSI generic commands + responses from Linux details;
4417 should help port to FreeBSD of SCSI part of smartmontools.
4418 Make SCSI command builders more parametric.
4422 [BA] smartctl: if HDIO_DRIVE_TASK ioctl() is not implemented (no
4423 kernel support, then try to assess drive health by examining
4424 Attribute values/thresholds directly.
4426 [BA] smartd/smartctl: added -v 200,writeerrorcount option/Directive
4429 [BA] smartd: Now send email if any of the SMART commands fails,
4430 or if open()ing the device fails. This is often noted
4431 as a common disk failure mode.
4433 [BA] smartd/smartctl: Added -v N,raw8 -v N,raw16 and -v N,raw48
4434 Directives/Options for printing Raw Attributes in different
4437 [BA] smartd: Added -r ID and -R ID for reporting/tracking Raw
4438 values of Attributes.
4440 [BA] smartd/smartctl: Changed printing of spin-up-time attribute
4441 raw value to reflect current/average as per IBM standard.
4443 [BA] smartd/smartctl: Added -v 9,seconds option for disks which
4444 use Attribute 9 for power-on lifetime in seconds.
4446 [BA] smartctl: Added a warning message so that users of some IBM
4447 disks are warned to update their firmware. Note: we may want
4448 to add a command-line flag to disable the warning messages.
4449 I have done this in a general way, using regexp, so that we
4450 can add warnings about any type of disk that we wish...
4454 [BA] smartd: Created a subdirectory examplescripts/ of source
4455 directory that contains executable scripts for the -M exec PATH
4456 Directive of smartd.
4460 [BA] smartd: DEVICESCAN in /etc/smartd.conf
4461 can now be followed by all the same Directives as a regular
4462 device name like /dev/hda takes. This allows one to use
4464 DEVICESCAN -m root@example.com
4465 in the /etc/smartd.conf file.
4467 [BA] smartd: Added -c (--checkonce) command-line option. This checks
4468 all devices once, then exits. The exit status can be
4469 used to learn if devices were detected, and if smartd is
4470 functioning correctly. This is primarily for Distribution
4473 [BA] smartd: Implemented -M exec Directive for
4474 smartd.conf. This makes it possible to run an
4475 arbitrary script or mailing program with the
4478 [PW] smartd: Modified -M Directive so that it can be given
4479 multiple times. Added -M exec Directive.
4483 [BA] Fixed bug in smartctl pointed out by Pierre Gentile.
4484 -d scsi didn't work because tryata and tryscsi were
4485 reversed -- now works on /devfs SCSI devices.
4487 [BA] Fixed bug in smartctl pointed out by Gregory Goddard
4488 <ggoddard@ufl.edu>. Manual says that bit 6 of return
4489 value turned on if errors found in smart error log. But
4490 this wasn't implemented.
4494 [BA] Modified printing format for 9,minutes to read
4495 Xh+Ym not X h + Y m, so that fields are fixed width.
4497 [BA] Added Attribute 240 "head flying hours"
4501 [BA] As requested, local time/date now printed by smartctl -i
4503 [PW] Added "help" argument to -v for smartctl
4505 [PW] Added -D, --showdirectives option to smartd
4507 [DG] add '-l selftest' capability for SCSI devices (update smartctl.8)
4509 [BA] smartd,smartctl: added additional Attribute modification option
4510 -v 220,temp and -v 9,temp.
4512 [PW] Renamed smartd option -X to -d
4514 START OF SMARTMONTOOLS 5.1 series
4516 smartmontools-5.0.50
4518 [PW] Changed smartd.conf Directives -- see man page
4520 [BA/DG] Fixed uncommented comment in smartd.conf
4522 [DG] Correct 'Recommended start stop count' for SCSI devices
4524 [PW] Replaced smartd.conf directive -C with smartd option -i
4526 [PW] Changed options for smartctl -- see man page.
4528 [BA] Use strerror() to generate system call error messages.
4530 [BA] smartd: fflush() all open streams before fork().
4532 [BA] smartctl, smartd simplified internal handling of checksums
4533 for simpler porting and less code.
4535 smartmontools-5.0.49
4537 [PW] smartd --debugmode changed to --debug
4539 [BA] smartd/smartctl added attribute 230 Head Amplitude from
4542 [PW] Added list of proposed new options for smartctl to README.
4544 [PW] smartd: ParseOpts() now uses getopt_long() if HAVE_GETOPT_LONG is
4545 defined and uses getopt() otherwise. This is controlled by CPPFLAGS in
4548 [BA] smartd: Fixed a couple of error messages done with perror()
4549 to redirect them as needed.
4551 smartmontools-5.0.48
4553 [BA] smartctl: The -O option to enable an Immediate off-line test
4554 did not print out the correct time that the test would take to
4555 complete. This is because the test timer is volatile and not
4556 fixed. This has been fixed, and the smartctl.8 man page has been
4557 updated to explain how to track the Immediate offline test as it
4558 progresses, and to further emphasize the differences between the
4559 off-line immediate test and the self-tests.
4561 [BA] smartd/smartctl: Added new attribute (200) Multi_Zone_Error_Rate
4563 [BA] smartctl: modified so that arguments could have either a single -
4564 as in -ea or multiple ones as in -e -a. Improved warning message for
4565 device not opened, and fixed error in redirection of error output of
4566 HD identity command.
4568 [PW] smartd: added support for long options. All short options are still
4569 supported; see manpage for available long options.
4571 [BA] smartctl. When raw Attribute value was 2^31 or larger, did
4572 not print correctly.
4574 smartmontools-5.0.46
4576 [BA] smartd: added smartd.conf Directives -T and -s. The -T Directive
4577 enables/disables Automatic Offline Testing. The -s Directive
4578 enables/disables Attribute Autosave. Documentation and
4579 example configuration file updated to agree.
4581 [BA] smartd: user can make smartd check the disks at any time
4582 (ie, interrupt sleep) by sending signal SIGUSR1 to smartd. This
4583 can be done for example with:
4585 where <pid> is the process ID number of smartd.
4587 [EB] scsi: don't trust the data we receive from the drive too
4588 much. It very well might have errors (like zero response length).
4589 Seen on Megaraid logical drive, and verified in the driver source.
4591 [BA] smartd: added Directive -m for sending test email and
4592 for modifying email reminder behavior. Updated manual, and sample
4593 configuration file to illustrate & explain this.
4595 [BA] smartd: increased size of a continued smartd.conf line to
4598 [BA] Simplified Directive parsers and improved warning/error
4601 smartmontools-5.0.45
4603 [EB] Fixed bug in smartd where testunitready logic inverted
4604 prevented functioning on scsi devices.
4605 The bug in question only affects smartd users with scsi devices.
4606 To see if your version of smartd has the testunitready() bug, do
4608 If the version of the module smartd.c in a line like:
4609 Module: smartd.c revision: 1.66 date: 2002/11/17
4610 has a revision greater than or equal to 1.30, and less than or equal to
4611 1.64, then your version of the code has this problem.
4612 This problem affected releases starting with RELEASE_5_0_16 up to and
4613 including RELEASE_5_0_43.
4615 [BA] Added testunitnotready to smartctl for symmetry with smartd.
4617 [SB] added Czech descriptions to .spec file
4618 [SB] corrected comment in smartd.conf example
4620 [BA] Changed way that entries in the ATA error log are printed,
4621 to make it clearer which is the most recent error and
4622 which is the oldest one.
4624 NOTE: All changes made prior to this point were done by Bruce Allen
4625 [BA] although several of them had been suggested by earlier postings
4626 by Stanislav Brabec [SB].
4628 smartmontools-5.0.43
4630 Changed Temperature_Centigrade to Temperature_Celsius.
4631 The term "Centigrade" ceased to exist in 1948. (c.f
4632 http://www.bartleby.com/64/C004/016.html).
4634 smartmontools-5.0.42
4636 Modified SCSI device check to also send warning emails if
4637 requested in directives file.
4639 Added a new smartd configuration file Directive: -M ADDRESS.
4640 This sends a single warning email to ADDRESS for failures or
4641 errors detected with the -c, -L, -l, or -f Directives.
4643 smartmontools-5.0.38
4645 Modified perror() statements in atacmds.c so that printout for SMART
4646 commands errors is properly suppressed or queued depending upon users
4647 choices for error reporting modes.
4649 Added Italian descriptions to smartmontools.spec file.
4651 Started impementing send-mail-on-error for smartd; not yet enabled.
4653 Added -P (Permissive) Directive to smartd.conf file to allow SMART
4654 monitoring of pre-ATA-3 Rev 4 disks that have SMART but do not have
4655 a SMART capability bit.
4657 Removed charset encodings from smartmontools.spec file for non-English
4660 smartmontools-5.0.32
4662 Added manual page smartd.conf.5 for configuration file.
4664 smartctl: Missing ANSI prototype in failuretest(); fixed.
4666 smartctl: Checksum warnings now printed on stdout, or are silent,
4667 depending upon -q and -Q settings.
4669 smartmontools-5.0.31
4671 Changed Makefile so that the -V option does not reflect file state
4674 smartctl: added new options -W, -U, and -P to control if and how the
4675 smartctl exits if an error is detected in either a SMART data
4676 structure checksum, or a SMART command returns an error.
4678 modified manual page to break options into slightly more logical
4681 reformatted 'usage' message order to agree with man page ordering
4683 modified .spec file so that locale information now contains
4684 character set definition. Changed pt_BR to pt since we do not use any
4685 aspect other than language. See man setlocale.
4687 smartmontools-5.0.30
4688 smartctl: added new options -n and -N to force device to be ATA or SCSI
4689 smartctl: no longer dies silently if device path does not start/dev/X
4690 smartctl: now handles arbitrary device paths
4692 smartmontools-5.0.29
4693 Modified .spec file and Makefile to make them more compliant with
4694 the "right" way of doing things.
4696 smartmontools-5.0.26
4697 Fixed typesetting error in man page smartd.8
4699 Removed redundant variable (harmless) from smartd.c
4701 smartmontools-5.0.25
4703 Added a new directive for the configuration file. If the word
4704 DEVICESCAN appears before any non-commented material in the
4705 configuration file, then the confi file will be ignored and the
4706 devices wil be scanned.
4708 smartmontools-5.0.24
4710 Note: it has now been confirmed that the code modifications between
4711 5.0.23 and 5.0.24 have eliminated the GCC 3.2 problems. Note that
4712 there is a GCC bug howerver, see #8404 at
4713 http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?database=gcc&cmd=query
4714 http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8404
4716 Added new Directive for Configuration file:
4717 -C <N> This sets the time in between disk checks to be <N>
4718 seconds apart. Note that although you can give
4719 this Directive multiple times on different lines of
4720 the configuration file, only the final value that
4721 is given has an effect, and applies to all the
4722 disks. The default value of <N> is 1800 sec, and
4723 the minimum allowed value is ten seconds.
4725 Problem wasn't the print format. F.L.W. Meunier <0@pervalidus.net>
4726 sent me a gcc 3.2 build and I ran it under a debugger. The
4727 problem seems to be with passing the very large (2x512+4) byte
4728 data structures as arguments. I never liked this anyway; it was
4729 inherited from smartsuite. So I've changed all the heavyweight
4730 functions (ATA ones, anyone) to just passing pointers, not hideous
4731 kB size structures on the stack. Hopefully this will now build OK
4732 under gcc 3.2 with any sensible compilation options.
4734 smartmontools-5.0.23
4736 Because of reported problems with GCC 3.2 compile, I have gone
4737 thorough the code and explicitly changed all print format
4738 parameters to correspond EXACTLY to int unless they have to be
4739 promoted to long longs. To quote from the glibc bible: [From
4740 GLIBC Manual: Since the prototype doesn't specify types for
4741 optional arguments, in a call to a variadic function the default
4742 argument promotions are performed on the optional argument
4743 values. This means the objects of type char or short int (whether
4744 signed or not) are promoted to either int or unsigned int, as
4747 smartmontools-5.0.22
4749 smartd, smartctl now warn if they find an attribute whose ID
4750 number does not match between Data and Threshold structures.
4752 Fixed nasty bug which led to wrong number of arguments for a
4753 varargs statement, with attendent stack corruption. Sheesh!
4754 Have added script to CVS attic to help find such nasties in the
4757 smartmontools-5.0.21
4759 Eliminated some global variables out of header files and other
4760 minor cleanup of smartd.
4762 smartmontools-5.0.20
4764 Did some revision of the man page for smartd and made the usage
4765 messages for Directives 100% consistent.
4767 smartmontools-5.0-19
4769 smartd: prints warning message when it gets SIGHUP, saying that it
4770 is NOT re-reading the config file.
4772 smartctl: updated man page to say self-test commands -O,x,X,s,S,A
4773 appear to be supported in the code. [I can't test these, can anyone
4776 smartmontools-5.0-18
4778 smartctl: smartctl would previously print the LBA of a self-test
4779 if it completed, and the LBA was not 0 or 0xff...f However
4780 according to the specs this is not correct. According to the
4781 specs, if the self-test completed without error then LBA is
4782 undefined. This version fixes that. LBA value only printed if
4783 self-test encountered an error.
4785 smartmontools-5.0-17
4787 smartd has changed significantly. This is the first CVS checkin of
4788 code that extends the options available for smartd. The following
4789 options can be placed into the /etc/smartd.conf file, and control the
4791 Configuration file Directives (following device name):
4792 -A Device is an ATA device
4793 -S Device is a SCSI device
4794 -c Monitor SMART Health Status
4795 -l Monitor SMART Error Log for changes
4796 -L Monitor SMART Self-Test Log for new errors
4797 -f Monitor for failure of any 'Usage' Attributes
4798 -p Report changes in 'Prefailure' Attributes
4799 -u Report changes in 'Usage' Attributes
4800 -t Equivalent to -p and -u Directives
4801 -a Equivalent to -c -l -L -f -t Directives
4802 -i ID Ignore Attribute ID for -f Directive
4803 -I ID Ignore Attribute ID for -p, -u or -t Directive
4804 # Comment: text after a hash sign is ignored
4805 \ Line continuation character
4807 cleaned up functions used for printing CVS IDs. Now use string
4808 library, as it should be.
4810 modified length of device name string in smartd internal structure
4811 to accomodate max length device name strings
4813 removed un-implemented (-e = Email notification) option from
4814 command line arg list. We'll put it back on when implemeneted.
4816 smartd now logs serious (fatal) conditions in its operation at
4817 loglevel LOG_CRIT rather than LOG_INFO before exiting with error.
4819 smartd used to open a file descriptor for each SMART enabled
4820 device, and then keep it open the entire time smartd was running.
4821 This meant that some commands, like IOREADBLKPART did not work,
4822 since the fd to the device was open. smartd now opens the device
4823 when it needs to read values, then closes it. Also, if one time
4824 around it can't open the device, it simply prints a warning
4825 message but does not give up. Have eliminated the .fd field from
4826 data structures -- no longer gets used.
4828 smartd now opens SCSI devices as well using O_RDONLY rather than
4829 O_RDWR. If someone can no longer monitor a SCSI device that used
4830 to be readable, this may well be the reason why.
4832 smartd never checked if the number of ata or scsi devices detected
4833 was greater than the max number it could monitor. Now it does.
4835 smartmontools-5.0-16
4837 smartd on startup now looks in the configuration file /etc/smartd.conf for
4838 a list of devices which to include in its monitoring list. See man page
4839 (man smartd) for syntax.
4841 smartd: close file descriptors of SCSI device if not SMART capable
4842 Closes ALL file descriptors after forking to daemon.
4844 added new temperature attribute (231, temperature)
4846 smartd: now open ATA disks using O_RDONLY
4848 smartmontools-5.0-11
4850 smartd now prints the name of a failed or changed attribute
4851 into logfile, not just ID number
4853 Changed name of -p (print version) option to -V
4855 Minor change in philosophy: if a SMART command fails or the device
4856 appears incapable of a SMART command that the user has asked for,
4857 complain by printing an error message, but go ahead and try
4858 anyway. Since unimplemented SMART commands should just return an
4859 error but not cause disk problems, this should't cause any
4862 Added two new flags: q and Q. q is quiet mode - only print: For
4863 the -l option, errors recorded in the SMART error log; For the -L
4864 option, errors recorded in the device self-test log; For the -c
4865 SMART "disk failing" status or device attributes (pre-failure or
4866 usage) which failed either now or in the past; For the -v option
4867 device attributes (pre-failure or usage) which failed either now
4868 or in the past. Q is Very Quiet mode: Print no ouput. The only
4869 way to learn about what was found is to use the exit status of
4872 smartctl now returns sensible values (bitmask). See smartctl.h
4873 for the values, and the man page for documentation.
4875 The SMART status check now uses the correct ATA call. If failure
4876 is detected we search through attributes to list the failed ones.
4877 If the SMART status check shows GOOD, we then look to see if their
4878 are any usage attributes or prefail attributes have failed at any
4879 time. If so we print them.
4881 Modified function that prints vendor attributes to say if the
4882 attribute has currently failed or has ever failed.
4884 -p option now prints out license info and CVS strings for all
4885 modules in the code, nicely formatted.
4887 Previous versions of this code (and Smartsuite) only generate
4888 SMART failure errors if the value of an attribute is below the
4889 threshold and the prefailure bit is set. However the ATA Spec
4890 (ATA4 <=Rev 4) says that it is a SMART failure if the value of an
4891 attribute is LESS THAN OR EQUAL to the threshold and the
4892 prefailure bit is set. This is now fixed in both smartctl and
4893 smartd. Note that this is a troubled subject -- the original
4894 SFF 8035i specification defining SMART was inconsistent about
4895 this. One section says that Attribute==Threshold is pass,
4896 and another section says it is fail. However the ATA specs are
4897 consistent and say Attribute==Threshold is a fail.
4899 smartd did not print the correct value of any failing SMART attribute. It
4900 printed the index in the attribute table, not the attribute
4903 when starting self-tests in captive mode ioctl returns EIO because
4904 the drive has been busied out. Detect this and don't return an eror
4905 in this case. Check this this is correct (or how to fix it?)
4907 fixed possible error in how to determine ATA standard support
4908 for devices with no ATA minor revision number.
4910 device opened only in read-only not read-write mode. Don't need R/W
4911 access to get smart data. Check this with Andre.
4913 smartctl now handles all possible choices of "multiple options"
4914 gracefully. It goes through the following phases of operation,
4915 in order: INFORMATION, ENABLE/DISABLE, DISPLAY DATA, RUN/ABORT TESTS.
4916 Documentation has bee updated to explain the different phases of
4917 operation. Control flow through ataPrintMain()
4920 If reading device identity information fails, try seeing if the info
4921 can be accessed using a "DEVICE PACKET" command. This way we can
4922 at least get device info.
4924 Modified Makefile to automatically tag CVS archive on issuance of
4927 Modified drive detection so minor device ID code showing ATA-3 rev
4928 0 (no SMART) is known to not be SMART capable.
4930 Now verify the checksum of the device ID data structure, and of the
4931 attributes threshold structure. Before neither of these
4932 structures had their checksums verified.
4934 New behavior vis-a-vis checksums. If they are wrong, we log
4935 warning messages to stdout, stderr, and syslog, but carry on
4936 anyway. All functions now call a checksumwarning routine if the
4937 checksum doesn't vanish as it should.
4939 Changed Read Hard Disk Identity function to get fresh info from
4940 the disk on each call rather than to use the values that were read
4941 upon boot-up into the BIOS. This is the biggest change in this
4942 release. The ioctl(device, HDIO_GET_IDENTITY, buf ) call should
4943 be avoided in such code. Note that if people get garbled strings
4944 for the model, serial no and firmware versions of their drives,
4945 then blame goes here (the BIOS does the byte swapping for you,
4948 Function ataSmartSupport now looks at correct bits in drive
4949 identity structure to verify first that these bits are valid,
4952 Function ataIsSmartEnabled() written which uses the Drive ID state
4953 information to tell if SMART is enabled or not. We'll carry this
4954 along for the moment without using it.
4956 Function ataDoesSmartWork() guaranteed to work if the device
4959 Replace some numbers by #define MACROS
4961 Wrote Function TestTime to return test time associated with each
4962 different type of test.
4964 Thinking of the future, have added a new function called
4965 ataSmartStatus2(). Eventually when I understand how to use the
4966 TASKFILE API and am sure that this works correctly, it will
4967 replace ataSmartStatus(). This queries the drive directly to
4968 see if the SMART status is OK, rather than comparing thresholds to
4969 attribute values ourselves. But I need to get some drives that fail
4970 their SMART status to check it.
4973 smartmontools-5.0-10
4974 Removed extraneous space before printing in some error messages
4975 Fixed additional typos in documentation
4976 Fixed some character buffers that were too short for their contents.
4980 Put project home path into all source files near the top
4981 Corrected typos in the documentation
4982 Modified Makefile so that Mandrake Cooker won't increment version number
4983 (unless they happen to be working on my machine, which I doubt!)
4985 smartmontools-5.0-8:
4987 For IBM disks whose raw temp data includes three temps. print all
4990 print timestamps for error log to msec precision
4992 added -m option for Hitachi disks that store power on life in
4995 added -L option for printing self-test error logs
4997 in -l option, now print power on lifetime, so that one can see
4998 when the error took place
5000 updated SMART structure definitions to ATA-5 spec
5004 added -f and -F options to enable/disable autosave threshold
5007 changed argv parsing to use getops -- elminate buffer overflow
5010 expanded and corrected documentation
5012 fixed problem with smartd. It did not actually call
5013 ataSmartEnable()! Since the argument was left out, the test
5014 always suceeded because it evaluated to a pointer to the function.
5016 smartd: closed open file descriptors if device does not support
5017 smart. Note: this still needs to be fixed for SCSI devices
5020 smartmontools-5.0-0 STARTED with smartsuite-2.1-2
