                   2158: 
                   2159:        - On Linux, DEVICESCAN now automatically recognizes SATA devices
                   2160:          behind libata, and SATA devices behind the Marvell driver, and
                   2161:          treats them correctly.
                   2162: 
                   2163:        - On Linux, a '-d sat' or '-d marvell' is automatically added
                   2164:          if libata or the marvell driver are recognized behind a SCSI
                   2165:          device type
                   2166: 
                   2167:   [SS] (Maybe) fix attribute autosave in FreeBSD.
                   2168: 
                   2169:   [SS] Major NetBSD-specific bugfixes:
                   2170:        - handle actual SCSI and ATA errors and not only ioctl() errors;
                   2171:        - set up I/O request properly for AUTO_OFFLINE and AUTOSAVE commands (inspired by
                   2172:          similar change in os_freebsd.cpp);
                   2173:        - handle AUTO_OFFLINE and AUTOSAVE like STATUS_CHECK (like os_linux.cpp does).
                   2174: 
                   2175:   [GG] add kfreebsd gnu support to configure.in

                   2180: 
                   2181:   [DG] smartd re-opens "SCSI" devices as ATA devices if a SAT layer is
                   2182:        detected (smartd bug IMO). In Linux this upsets scsi generic
                   2183:        device nodes (e.g. /dev/sg0). Detect the re-open in os_linux.cpp
                   2184:        and set the O_RDWR flag (ATA uses the O_RDONLY flag).
                   2185:

                   2202:        fails.  Needed for Mac OS X 10.4. Uck.
                   2203:  
                   2204:   [CF] Windows: Added IOCTL_STORAGE_PREDICT_FAILURE. This allows access
                   2205:        to ATA SMART status and data if other calls do not work.
                   2206:        Thanks to Jaroslaw Kowalski for pointing this out.

                   2217:        platforms. This regression was introduced by the change for
                   2218:        '-F swapid'. Thanks to Matthew Butch for bug report and testing.
                   2219: 
                   2220:   [DG] SAT/SCSI: Improve SAT error processing code. Aborted commands from
                   2221:        ATA devices (typically because SMART was disabled) were not being

                   2230:        only tested for X86 Target, but devb-eide and lobcam.so.2 available for X86/ARM
                   2231:        the officional driver coming soon with the next QNX release
                   2232:        create two new source files os_qnxnto.[c..h]
                   2233: 
                   2234:   [CF] smartd: Added option '-n, --no-fork' so that smartd works

                   2290:        properly by SMART_IOCTL in disk class driver. This allows to use
                   2291:        READ_LOG, WRITE_LOG and ABORT_SELFTEST even if the driver does not
                   2292:        support ATA_PASS_THROUGH.
                   2293: 
                   2294:   [CF] Added ATA-8 revision 4, fixed WRITE LOG '-r ioctl' output.

                   3016:        for glibc.  Note: this might not be right -- a similar bug may
                   3017:        exist in other platform's libcs.
                   3018:

                   3093:        base 16 (more compatible with kernel error messages).  Also,
                   3094:        in printing SMART error log, print timestamps in format
                   3095:        days+hours+minutes+seconds.

                   3109:        Added additional options (-t pending, -t afterselect) to
                   3110:        control remaining Selective Self-test capabilities.  Tested
                   3111:        with several Maxtor disks. Modified error message printing
                   3112:        so that munged option messages print at the end not the
                   3113:        start of output.

                   3115:   [CF] Added daemon support to Win32 native version of smartd.
                   3116:        The daemon can be controlled by commands similar to initd
                   3117:        scripts: "smartd status|stop|reload|restart|sigusr1|sigusr2".
                   3118: 
                   3119:   [CF] Added minor support for option "-l local[0-7]" to Win32 native
                   3120:        (not Cygwin) version of smartd. If specified, the log output
                   3121:        is written to file "./smartd[1-7]?.log" instead of event log.
                   3122: 
                   3123:   [BA] Added Selective Self-test to smartctl (-t selective,M-N).

                   3125:        and Windows developers must add WRITE LOG functionality to
                   3126:        os_*.c
                   3127: 
                   3128:   [BA] Added workaround for an annoying glibc bug: if you change
                   3129:        timezones, (eg, flying with a laptop from USA to Europe)
                   3130:        localtime() does not notice this in a running
                   3131:        executable, so time that appears in the system log (syslog!)
                   3132:        will be incorrect.  See
                   3133:        http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=48184
                   3134:        for additional examples of this bug.
                   3135: 
                   3136:   [DG] Set explicit timeouts for SCSI commands (most default to 6 seconds).
                   3137:        Previously a 0 second timeout was meant to be interpreted as a 
                   3138:        default timeout but the FreeBSD port had a problem in this area.
                   3139: 
                   3140:   [CF] Fixed un-thread-safe exit signal handler for Win32

                   3143:        by CF.
                   3144: 
                   3145:   [BA] Changed configure script to eliminate warnings under
                   3146:        Solaris from sys/int_type.h conflicts with int64.h

                   3358:        A workaround for Solaris users of earlier versions is to

                   3363:        and odd length is reported (i.e. there is a double fetch, the
                   3364:        first to find the length, the second gets the data)
                   3365: 
                   3366:   [BA] smartd man pages: under Solaris, correct section numbers in the

                   3368: 
                   3369:   [KS/BA] smartd man page: describe how to set Solaris syslog.conf
                   3370:        file to catch all messages.  Give correct Solaris SYSLOG default
                   3371:        path /var/adm/messages in man pages.

                   3375:   [BA] smartctl: modified printing of self-test log entry number.  Seagate
                   3376:        firmware can leave 'holes' in the self-test log while a test is
                   3377:        actually running.  We now print entry numbers consistently in this
                   3378:        case, not assuming that entries are contiguous.
                   3379: 
                   3380:   [PW] Added QUANTUM FIREBALL CX10.2A and Western Digital Caviar AC23200L

                   3406:   [BA] linux: check for linux/hdreg.h.  If it's there, use it. If
                   3407:        not, provide the necessary definitions ourselves.
                   3408: 
                   3409:   [PW] Removed warning for IBM Deskstar 40GV & 75GXP series drives

                   3416:        table.
                   3417: 
                   3418:   [BA] smartd: made '-s' Directive more efficient.  Now store
                   3419:        compiled regex, and re-use.  If device lacks certain self-test
                   3420:        capabilities, track it and don't try again.
                   3421:

                   3430:        mail-warning info dynamically allocated.  Also remove
                   3431:        potential memory leak if use has -m Directive twice and
                   3432:        keeps reloading the config file (highly unlikely this would
                   3433:        ever be noticed!)

                   3444:        for solaris and linux, but wrong for freebsd.  Ed?
                   3445: 
                   3446:   [BA] smartd: man page now explains device scanning for solaris as
                   3447:        well as linux and freebsd.
                   3448: 
                   3449:   [BA] smartd/smartctl: man pages now report correct CVS tag release
                   3450:        date, and executables '-V' options reports more build info.
                   3451:

                   3458:   [BA] incorporated SuSE init script from user.
                   3459: 
                   3460:   [DG] if SCSI device is read only, then open it read only.
                   3461: 
                   3462:   [BA] when compiled on non-supported system (NOT linux, freebsd or solaris) then
                   3463:        the run-time error messages now clearly say 'your system is not supported'
                   3464:        and give clear directions.
                   3465: 
                   3466:   [BA] ./configure script now works correctly on SuSE linux boxes

                   3468:   [BA] minor improvements to man pages
                   3469:

                   3471: 
                   3472:   [BA] init script (redhat, mandrake, yellowdog) now uses correct
                   3473:        strings for translation and is slightly more standard.
                   3474: 
                   3475:   [DG] smartctl: output scsi Seagate vendor pages for disks (not tapes)
                   3476: 
                   3477: smartmontools 5.25
                   3478: 
                   3479: Note: there was no '5.24' release. From this point on, even numbered
                   3480: releases will be 'stable' ones and odd numbered releases will be
                   3481: unstable/testing/development ones.
                   3482: 
                   3483:   [DG] smartd/smartctl: changed scsiClearControlGLTSD() to
                   3484:        scsiSetControlGLTSD() with an 'enabled' argument so '-S on'
                   3485:        and '-S off' work for SCSI devices (if changing GLTSD supported).
                   3486: 
                   3487:   [BA] smartd/smartctl: wired in scsiClearControlGLTSD(). Could still
                   3488:        use a corresponding Set function.  Left stubs for this purpose.
                   3489: 
                   3490:   [DG] scsicmds: added scsiClearControlGLTSD() [still to be wired in]

                   3510:   [DG] scsi: remember mode sense cmd length. Output trip temperature

                   3512: 
                   3513:   [BA] smartd: for both SCSI and ATA now warns user if either

                   3531:   [DG] More checks for well formed mode page responses. This has the side
                   3532:        effect of stopping scans on bad SCSI implementations (e.g. some
                   3533:        USB disks) prior to sending commands (typically log sense) that
                   3534:        locks them up.

                   3543: 
                   3544:   [BA] smartd: added additional command line argument -l FACILITY
                   3545:        or --logfacility FACILITY.  This can be used to redirect
                   3546:        messages from smartd to a different file than the one used
                   3547:        by other system daemons.
                   3548:

                   3554:   
                   3555:   [PW] Added Maxtor 4W040H3, Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 Plus,

                   3562: 
                   3563:   [EM] smartd: If no matches found, then return 0, rather than an error
                   3564:        indication, as it just means no devices of the given type exist.
                   3565:        Adjust FreeBSD scan code to mirror Linux version.
                   3566: 
                   3567:   [BA] smartd: made device scan code simpler and more robust. If
                   3568:        too many devices detected, warn user but scan as many
                   3569:        as possible.  If error in scanning, warn user but don't
                   3570:        die right away.
                   3571:

                   3573:        devicescan code to also use glob(3). Also verified clean 
                   3574:        compile on a 4.7 FreeBSD system.
                   3575: 
                   3576:   [BA] smartd: Modified device scan code to use glob(3). Previously
                   3577:        it appeared to have trouble when scanning devices on an XFS
                   3578:        file system, and used non-public interface to directory
                   3579:        entries. Problems were also reported when /dev/ was on an
                   3580:        ext2/3 file system, but there was a JFS partition on the same
                   3581:        disk.
                   3582: 
                   3583:   [BA] Clearer error messages when device scanning finds no suitable

                   3585: 
                   3586:   [EM] FreeBSD:        Fixup code to allow for proper compilation under 
                   3587:        -STABLE branch.
                   3588:

                   3590: 
                   3591:   [BA] smartd: didn't close file descriptors of ATA packet devices
                   3592:        that are scanned. Fixed.
                   3593: 
                   3594:   [BA] Added reload/report targets to the smartmontools init script.
                   3595:        reload: reloads config file
                   3596:        report: send SIGUSR1 to check devices now

                   3602:   [PW] Added Fujitsu MHM2200AT to knowndrives table.
                   3603: 
                   3604:   [BA] To help catch bugs, clear ATA error structures before all
                   3605:        ioctl calls.  Disable code that attempted to time-out on SCSI
                   3606:        devices when they hung (doesn't work).
                   3607:  
                   3608:   [BA] Documented STATUS/ERROR flags added by [PW] below.
                   3609: 
                   3610:   [BA] Improved algorithm to recognize ATA packet devices. Should
                   3611:        no longer generate SYSLOG kernel noise when user tries either
                   3612:        smartd or smartctl on packet device (CD-ROM or DVD).  Clearer
                   3613:        warning messages from smartd when scanning ATA packet device.
                   3614: 
                   3615:   [PW] Added TOSHIBA MK4025GAS to knowndrives table.
                   3616: 
                   3617:   [PW] Added a textual interpretation of the status and error registers
                   3618:        in the SMART error log (ATA).  The interpretation is
                   3619:        command-dependent and currently only eight commands are supported
                   3620:        (those which produced errors in the error logs that I happen to
                   3621:        have seen).
                   3622: 
                   3623:   [BA] added memory allocation tracking to solaris code.
                   3624:        Fixed solaris signal handling (reset handler to default
                   3625:        after first call to handler) by using sigset. Added
                   3626:        HAVE_SIGSET to configure.in
                   3627: 
                   3628:   [CD] solaris port: added SCSI functionality to solaris
                   3629:        stubs.
                   3630: 
                   3631:   [BA] smartd: attempt to address bug report about smartd
                   3632:        hanging on USB devices when scanning:
                   3633:        https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=107615
                   3634:        Set a timeout of SCSITIMEOUT (nominally 7 seconds) before
                   3635:        giving up.
                   3636: 
                   3637:   [EM] smartd: DEVICESCAN will follow links in a devfs filesystem and
                   3638:        make sure the end point is a disc.  Update documentation, added
                   3639:        note about FreeBSD scanning
                   3640: 
                   3641:   [BA] smartd: DEVICESCAN also looks for block devices in
                   3642:        /dev.  Updated documentation.  Now scans for up to
                   3643:        20 ATA devices /dev/hda-t rather than previous 12
                   3644:        /dev/hda-l.
                   3645: 
                   3646:   [EM] smartd: mirror the FreeBSD DEVICESCAN logic for Linux,
                   3647:        so that smartd now scans only devices found in /dev/. Also,
                   3648:        make utility memory functions take a line number and file so
                   3649:        that we report errors with the correct location.
                   3650:  
                   3651:   [GG] add a note about Debian bug #208964 to WARNINGS.
                   3652: 
                   3653:   [BA] smartctl: -T verypermissive option broken.  Use
                   3654:        -T verpermissive until the next release, please.
                   3655: 
                   3656:   [BA] Syntax mods so that code also compiles on Solaris using
                   3657:        Sun Workshop compiler.  Need -xmemalign 1i -xCC flags
                   3658:        for cc.
                   3659: 
                   3660: smartmontools 5.21
                   3661: 
                   3662:   [DK] Changed configure.in so -Wall is only included if gcc
                   3663:        is used (this is a gcc specific flag) and -fsignedchar
                   3664:        is not used at all (this is a gcc specific compiler 
                   3665:        flag).
                   3666: 
                   3667:   [BA] Modifications so that code now compiles under solaris. Now
                   3668:        all that's needed (:-) is to fill in os_solaris.[hc].  Added
                   3669:        os_generic.[hc] as guide to future ports.  Fixed -D option
                   3670:        of smartd (no file name).  Modified -h opt of smartd/smartctl
                   3671:        to work properly with solaris getopt().
                   3672: 
                   3673:   [EM] Update MAN pages with notes that 3ware drives are NOT supported
                   3674:        under FreeBSD. Cleanup FreeBSD warning message handling.
                   3675: 
                   3676:   [EM] FreeBSD only: Fix first user found bug....I guess I was making
                   3677:        the wrong assumption on how to convert ATA devnames to
                   3678:        channel/unit numbers.
                   3679:   
                   3680:   [EM] Allow for option --enable-sample to append '.sample' to installed
                   3681:        smartd.conf and rc script files. Also, let rc script shell setting
                   3682:        be determined by configure
                   3683: 
                   3684:   [EM] Minor autoconf update to include -lcam for FreeBSD
                   3685: 
                   3686:   [EM] Add conditional logic to allow FreeBSD to compile pre-ATAng.

                   3689: 
                   3690:   [EM] Implement SCSI CAM support for FreeBSD.  NOTE: I am not an expert
                   3691:        in the use of CAM.  It seems to work for me, but I may be doing
                   3692:        something horribly wrong, so please exercise caution.
                   3693: 
                   3694:   [EM] Switch over to using 'atexit' rather than 'on_exit' routine. This also
                   3695:        meant we needed to save the exit status elsewhere so our 'Goodbye'
                   3696:        routine could examine it.
                   3697: 
                   3698:   [EM] Move the DEVICESCAN code to os specific files. Also moved some of the
                   3699:        smartd Memory functions to utility.c to make available to smartctl.
                   3700: 
                   3701:   [EM] Code janitor work on os_freebsd.c.
                   3702: 
                   3703:   [EM] Added os_freebsd.[hc] code.  Additional code janitor
                   3704:        work.
                   3705: 
                   3706:   [BA] Code janitor working, moving OS dependent code into
                   3707:        os_linux.[hc].
                   3708: 
                   3709:   [GG] conditionally compile os_{freebsd,linux}.o depending on

                   3713: 
                   3714:   [BA] Added -F samsung2 flag to correct firmware byte swap.
                   3715:        All samsung drives with *-23 firmware revision string.
                   3716:

                   3718: 
                   3719:   [GG] Fixed broken Makefile.am (zero length smartd.conf.5
                   3720:        was being created), fix broken uninstall/distcheck targets
                   3721: 
                   3722:   [FM] Improved Slackware init script added to /etc/smartd.initd
                   3723: 
                   3724: smartmontools 5.19 [NOTE CHANGE OF RELEASE NUMBERING]
                   3725: 
                   3726:   [BA] smartctl: added '-T verypermissive' option which is
                   3727:        equivalent to giving '-T permissive' many times.
                   3728: 
                   3729:   [BA] Try harder to identify from IDENTIFY DEVICE structure
                   3730:        if SMART supported/enabled.  smartd now does a more
                   3731:        thorough job of trying to assess this before sending
                   3732:        a SMART status command to find out for sure.
                   3733: 
                   3734:   [BA] smartctl: it's now possible to override the program's
                   3735:        guess of the device type (ATA or SCSI) with -d option.
                   3736: 
                   3737:   [BA] try hard to avoid sending IDENTIFY DEVICE to packet
                   3738:        devices (CDROMS).  They can't do SMART, and this generates
                   3739:        annoying syslog messages. At the same time, identify type
                   3740:        of Packet device.
                   3741: 
                   3742:   [BA] smartctl: Can now use permissive option more
                   3743:        than once, to control how far to go before giving up.
                   3744: 
                   3745:   [BA] smartd: if user asked to monitor either error or self-test
                   3746:        logs (-l error or -l selftest) WITHOUT monitoring any of the
                   3747:        Attribute values, code will SEGV.  For 5.1-18 and earlier,
                   3748:        a good workaround is to enable Auto offline (-o on).
                   3749: 
                   3750:   [BA] smartctl: If enable auto offline command given, update auto
                   3751:        offline status before printing capabilities.
                   3752: 
                   3753:   [GG] Make autotools build the default, remove autotools.diff
                   3754: 
                   3755:   [GG] Add auto{conf,make} support, not enabled by default. 
                   3756: 
                   3757:   [BA] Eliminated #include <linux/hdreg.h> from code. This
                   3758:        should simplify porting to solaris, FreeBSD, etc. The
                   3759:        only linux-specific code is now isolated to three routines,
                   3760:        one for SCSI, one for Escalade, one for ATA.
                   3761: 
                   3762: smartmontools 5.1-18
                   3763: 
                   3764:   [BA] smartd: fixed serious bug - Attributes not monitored unless
                   3765:        user told smartd to ignore at least one of them!
                   3766: 
                   3767: smartmontools 5.1-17
                   3768: 
                   3769:   [BA] Default runlevels for smartd changed from 3 and 5 to
                   3770:        2, 3, 4, and 5.
                   3771: 
                   3772:   [BA] Removed as much dynamic memory allocation as possible from
                   3773:        configuration file parsing. Reloading config file, even in
                   3774:        presence of syntax errors etc. should not cause memory leaks.
                   3775: 
                   3776:   [PW] It is no longer permissible for the integer part (if any) of
                   3777:        arguments to --report and --device to be followed by non-digits.
                   3778:        For example, the "foo" in --report=ioctl,2foo was previously
                   3779:        ignored, but now causes an error.
                   3780: 
                   3781:   [BA] smartd: added -q/--quit command line option to specify
                   3782:        under what circumstances smartd should exit.  The old
                   3783:        -c/--checkonce option is now obsoleted by this more
                   3784:        general-purpose option.
                   3785: 
                   3786:   [BA] smartd now responds to a HUP signal by re-reading its
                   3787:        configuration file /etc/smartd.conf.  If there are
                   3788:        errors in this file, then the configuration file is
                   3789:        ignored and smartd continues to monitor the devices that
                   3790:        it was monitoring prior to receiving the HUP signal.
                   3791: 
                   3792:   [BA] Now correctly get SMART status from disks behind 3ware
                   3793:        controllers, thanks to Adam Radford. Need 3w-xxxx driver
                   3794:        version 1.02.00.037 or later. Previously the smartmontools
                   3795:        SMART status always returned "OK" for 3ware controllers.
                   3796: 
                   3797:   [BA] Additional work on dynamic memory allocation/deallocation.
                   3798:        This should have no effect on smartctl, but clears that way
                   3799:        for smartd to dynamically add and remove entries.  It should
                   3800:        also now be easier to modify smartd to re-read its config
                   3801:        file on HUP (which is easy) without leaking memory (which is
                   3802:        harder). The philosophy is that memory for data structures in
                   3803:        smartd is now allocated only on demand, the first time it
                   3804:        is needed.
                   3805: 
                   3806:   [BA] smartd: finished cleanup.  Now use create/rm functions for
                   3807:        cfgentries and dynamic memory allocation almost everywhere.
                   3808:        Philosophy: aggresively try and provoke SEGV to help find
                   3809:        bad code.
                   3810: 
                   3811:   [BA] Added SAMSUNG SV0412H to knowndrives table.
                   3812: 
                   3813:   [BA] smartd: if DEVICESCAN used then knowndrives table might not set
                   3814:        the -v attributes correctly -- may have been the same for all
                   3815:        the drives.  Cleaned up some data structures and memory
                   3816:        allocation to try and ensure segvs if such problems are 
                   3817:        introduced again.
                   3818: 
                   3819:   [BA] Now allow -S on and -o on for the 3ware device type.  For these
                   3820:        commands to be passed through, the stock 3ware 3w-xxxx driver
                   3821:        must be patched (8 lines).  I'll post a patch on the smartmontools
                   3822:        home page after it's been tested by a few other people and 3ware
                   3823:        have had a chance to look it over.
                   3824: 
                   3825: smartmontools-5.1-16
                   3826: 
                   3827:   [BA] smartd - can now monitor ATA drives behind 3ware controllers.
                   3828: 
                   3829:   [BA] smartd - changed some FATAL out of memory error messages from
                   3830:        syslog level LOG_INFO to LOG_CRIT.
                   3831: 
                   3832:   [BA] smartctl - added code to look at ATA drives behind 3ware RAID
                   3833:        controllers using the 3w-xxxx driver.  Note that for technical
                   3834:        reasons related to the 3w-xxxx driver, the "Enable Autosave",
                   3835:        "Enable Automatic Offline" commands are not implemented.
                   3836:        I will add this to smartd shortly.
                   3837: 
                   3838:   [BA] smartd - modified sleep loop, so that smartd no longer comes
                   3839:        on the run queue every second.  Instead, unless interrupted,
                   3840:        it sleeps until the next polling time, when it wakes up. Now
                   3841:        smartd also tries to wake up at exactly the right
                   3842:        intervals (nominally 30 min) even if the user has been sending
                   3843:        signals to it.
                   3844: 
                   3845:   [GG] add Fujitsu MHN2300AT to vendoropts_9_seconds.
                   3846: 
                   3847:   [EB] Fujitsu change in knowndrives ... match the whole MPD and
                   3848:        MPE series for vendoropts_9_seconds.
                   3849: 
                   3850:   [BA] smartd bug, might cause segv if a device can not be opened. Was
                   3851:        due to missing comma in char* list.  Consequence is that email
                   3852:        failure messages might have had the wrong Subject: heading for
                   3853:        errorcount, FAILEDhealthcheck, FAILEDreadsmartdata, FAILEDreadsmarterrorlog,
                   3854:        FAILEDreadsmartsefltestlog, FAILEDopendevice were all displaced by
                   3855:        one.  And FAILEDopendevice might have caused a segv if -m was being
                   3856:        used as a smartd Directive.
                   3857: 
                   3858: smartmontools-5.1-15
                   3859: 
                   3860:   [BA] Cleaned up smartmontools.spec so that upgrading, removing
                   3861:        and other such operations correctly preserve running behavior
                   3862:        and booting behavior of smartd.
                   3863: 
                   3864:   [BA] Improved formatting of ATA Error Log printout, and added
                   3865:        listing of names of commands that caused the error. Added
                   3866:        obsolete ATA-4 SMART feature commands to table, along with
                   3867:        obsolete SFF-8035i SMART feature command.
                   3868: 
                   3869:   [PW] Added atacmdnames.[hc], which turn command register &
                   3870:        feature register pairs into ATA command names.
                   3871: 
                   3872:   [BA] Added conveyance self-test.  Some code added for selective
                   3873:        self-tests, but #ifdefed out.
                   3874: 
                   3875:   [BA] Modified smartd exit status and log levels.  If smartd is
                   3876:        "cleanly" terminated, for example with SIGTERM, then its
                   3877:        exit messages are now logged at LOG_INFO not LOG_CRIT
                   3878: 
                   3879:   [BA] Added Attribute IDs  (Fujitsu) 0xCA - 0xCE.  This is decimal
                   3880:        202-206. Added -v switches for interpretation of Attributes
                   3881:        192, 198 and 201. 
                   3882: 
                   3883:   [BA] Made smartmontools work with any endian order machine for:
                   3884:        - SMART selftest log
                   3885:        - SMART ATA error log
                   3886:        - SMART Attributes values
                   3887:        - SMART Attributes thesholds
                   3888:        - IDENTIFY DEVICE information
                   3889:        - LOG DIRECTORY
                   3890:        Smartmontools is now free of endian bias and works correctly
                   3891:        on both little- and big-endian hardware.  This has been tested by
                   3892:        three independent PPC users on a variety of ATA and SCSI hardware.
                   3893: 
                   3894:   [DG] Check that certain SCSI command responses are well formed. If
                   3895:        IEC mode page response is not well formed exit smartctl. This
                   3896:        is to protect aacraid. smartd should ignore a aacraid device.
                   3897: 
                   3898: smartmontools-5.1-14
                   3899: 
                   3900:   [BA] smartctl: added column to -A output to show if Attributes are
                   3901:        updated only during off-line testing or also during normal
                   3902:        operation.
                   3903: 
                   3904: smartmontools-5.1-13
                   3905: 
                   3906:   [BA] smartd: attempt to enable/disable automatic offline testing even
                   3907:        if the disk appears not to support it.  Now the same logic
                   3908:        as smartctl.
                   3909: 
                   3910:   [BA] Added definition of Attribute 201, soft read error rate.
                   3911: 
                   3912:   [BA] Added IBM/Hitachi IC35L120AVV207-1 (GXP-180) and corresponding
                   3913:        8MB Cache GXP-120 to drive database.
                   3914: 
                   3915:   [BA] smartd: if DEVICESCAN Directive used in smartd.conf, and
                   3916:        -I, -R or -r Directives used in conjunction with this, got
                   3917:        segv errors.  Fixed by correcting memory allocation calls.
                   3918: 
                   3919:   [BA] smartd: enable automatic offline testing was broken due
                   3920:        to cut-and-paste error that disabled it instead of
                   3921:        enabling it.  Thanks to Maciej W. Rozycki for pointing
                   3922:        out the problem and solution.
                   3923: 
                   3924:   [BA] Fixed "spelling" of some Attribute names to replace spaces
                   3925:        in names by underscores. (Fixed field width easier for awk
                   3926:        style parsing.)
                   3927: 
                   3928:   [BA,GF] Added mods submitted by [GF] to support Attribute 193 being
                   3929:        load/unload cycles. Add -v 193,loadunload option, useful for
                   3930:        Hitachi drive DK23EA-30, and add this drive to knowndrive.c
                   3931:        Add meaning of attribute 250 : Read error retry rate
                   3932: 
                   3933: smartmontools-5.1-12
                   3934: 
                   3935:   [BA] Added another entry for Samsung drives to knowndrive table.
                   3936: 
                   3937:   [DG] Refine SCSI log sense command to do a double fetch in most cases
                   3938:        (but not for the TapeAlert log page). Fix TapeAlert and Self Test
                   3939:        log page response truncation.
                   3940: 
                   3941:   [PW] Added 'removable' argument to -d Directive for smartd.  This indicates
                   3942:        that smartd should continue (rather than exit) if the device does not 
                   3943:        appear to be present.
                   3944: 
                   3945:   [BA] Modified smartmontools.spec [Man pages location] and
                   3946:        smartd.initd [Extra space kills chkconfig!] for Redhat 6.x
                   3947:        compatibility (thanks to Gerald Schnabel).
                   3948: 
                   3949: smartmontools-5.1-11
                   3950: 
                   3951:   [EB] Add another Fujitsu disk to knowndrives.c
                   3952: 
                   3953:   [GG] match for scsi/ and ide/ in case of devfs to exclude false postives
                   3954: 
                   3955:   [BA] If SCSI device listed in /etc/smartd.conf fails to open or do
                   3956:        SMART stuff correctly, or not enough space
                   3957:        to list all SCSI devices, fail with error unless
                   3958:        -DSCSIDEVELOPMENT set during compile-time.
                   3959: 
                   3960:   [BA] Added automatic recognition of /dev/i* (example: /dev/ide/...)
                   3961:        as an ATA device.
                   3962: 
                   3963:   [DG] Add "Device type: [disk | tape | medium changer | ...] line to
                   3964:        smartctl -i output for SCSI devices.
                   3965: 
                   3966:   [PW] Fixed bug in smartd where test email would be sent regularly (for
                   3967:        example, daily if the user had specified -M daily) instead of just
                   3968:        once on startup.
                   3969: 
                   3970:   [KM] More TapeAlert work. Added translations for media changer
                   3971:        alerts. TapeAlert support reported according to the log page
                   3972:        presence. ModeSense not attempted for non-ready tapes (all
                   3973:        drives do not support this after all). Get peripheral type from
                   3974:        Inquiry even if drive info is not printed. Add QUIETON()
                   3975:        QUIETOFF() to TapeAlert log check.
                   3976: 
                   3977:   [BA] Stupid bug in atacmds.c minor_str[] affected ataVersionInfo().
                   3978:        Two missing commas meant that minor_str[] had two few elements,
                   3979:        leading to output like this:
                   3980:        Device Model:     Maxtor 6Y120L0
                   3981:        Serial Number:    Y40BF74E
                   3982:        Firmware Version: YAR41VW0
                   3983:        Device is:        Not in smartctl database [for details use: -P showall]
                   3984:        ATA Version is:   7
                   3985:        ATA Standard is:  9,minutes
                   3986:                          ^^^^^^^^^
                   3987:        Missing commas inserted.
                   3988: 
                   3989:   [BA] Fixed smartd bug.  On device registration, if ATA device did
                   3990:        not support SMART error or self-test logs but user had asked to
                   3991:        monitor them, an attempt would be made to read them anyway,
                   3992:        possibly generating "Drive Seek" errors.  We now check that
                   3993:        the self-test and error logs are supported before trying to
                   3994:        access them the first time.
                   3995: 
                   3996:   [GG/BA] Fixed bug where if SMART ATA error log not supported,
                   3997:        command was tried anyway. Changed some error printing to use
                   3998:        print handlers.
                   3999: 
                   4000:   [GG] Makefile modifications to ease packaging
                   4001: 
                   4002:   [DG] Did work for TapeAlerts (SCSI). Now can detect /dev/nst0 as a
                   4003:        SCSI device. Also open SCSI devices O_NONBLOCK so they don't
                   4004:        hang on open awaiting media. The ATA side should worry about
                   4005:        this also: during a DEVICESCAN a cd/dvd device without media
                   4006:        will hang. Added some TapeAlert code suggested by Kai Makisara.
                   4007: 
                   4008: smartmontools-5.1-10
                   4009: 
                   4010:   [PW] Extended the -F option/Directive to potentially fix other firmware
                   4011:        bugs in addition to the Samsung byte-order bug.  Long option name is
                   4012:        now --firmwarebug and the option/Directive accepts an argument
                   4013:        indicating the type of firmware bug to fix.
                   4014: 
                   4015:   [BA] Fixed a bug that prevented the enable automatic off-line
                   4016:        test feature from enabling.  It also prevented the enable Attribute
                   4017:        autosave from working.  See CVS entry for additional details.
                   4018: 
                   4019:   [PW] Modified the -r/--report option (smartctl and smartd) to allow the
                   4020:        user to specify the debug level as a positive integer.
                   4021: 
                   4022:   [BA] Added --log directory option to smartctl.  If the disk
                   4023:        supports the general-purpose logging feature set (ATA-6/7)
                   4024:        then this option enables the Log Directory to be printed.
                   4025:        This Log Directory shows which device logs are available, and
                   4026:        their lengths in sectors.
                   4027: 
                   4028:   [PW] Added -P/--presets option to smartctl and -P Directive to smartd.
                   4029: 
                   4030:   [GG] Introduce different exit codes indicating the type of problem
                   4031:        encountered for smartd.
                   4032: 
                   4033:   [DG] Add non-medium error count to '-l error' and extended self test
                   4034:        duration to '-l selftest'. Get scsi IEs and temperature changes
                   4035:        working in smartd. Step over various scsi disk problems rather
                   4036:        than abort smartd startup.
                   4037: 
                   4038:   [DG] Support -l error for SCSI disks (and tapes). Output error counter
                   4039:        log pages.
                   4040: 
                   4041:   [BA] Added -F/--fixbyteorder option to smartctl.  This allows us to read
                   4042:        SMART data from some disks that have byte-reversed two- and four-
                   4043:        byte quantities in their SMART data structures.
                   4044: 
                   4045:   [BA] Fixed serious bug: the -v options in smartd.conf were all put
                   4046:        together and used together, not drive-by-drive.
                   4047: 
                   4048:   [PW] Added knowndrives.h and knowndrives.c.  The knowndrives array
                   4049:        supersedes the drivewarnings array.
                   4050: 
                   4051:   [GG] add {-p,--pidfile} option to smartd to write a PID file on
                   4052:        startup. Update the manpage accordingly.
                   4053: 
                   4054:   [DG] Fix scsi smartd problem detecting SMART support. More cleaning
                   4055:        and fix (and rename) scsiTestUnitReady(). More scsi renaming.
                   4056: 
                   4057:   [BA] Fixed smartd so that if a disk that is explictily listed is not
                   4058:        found, then smartd will exit with nonzero status BEFORE forking.
                   4059:        If a disk can't be registered, this will also be detected before
                   4060:        forking, so that init scripts can react correctly.
                   4061: 
                   4062:   [BA] Replaced all linux-specific ioctl() calls in atacmds.c with
                   4063:        a generic handler smartcommandhandler().  Now the only routine
                   4064:        that needs to be implemented for a given OS is os_specific_handler().
                   4065:        Also implemented the --report ataioctl. This provides 
                   4066:        two levels of reporting.  Using the option once gives a summary
                   4067:        report of device IOCTL transactions.  Using the option twice give
                   4068:        additional info (a printout of ALL device raw 512 byte SMART
                   4069:        data structures).  This is useful for debugging.
                   4070: 
                   4071:   [DG] more scsi cleanup. Output scsi device serial number (VPD page
                   4072:        0x80) if available as part of '-i'. Implement '-t offline' as
                   4073:        default self test (only self test older disks support).
                   4074: 
                   4075:   [BA] Changed crit to info in loglevel of smartd complaint to syslog
                   4076:        if DEVICESCAN enabled and device not found.
                   4077: 
                   4078:   [BA] Added -v 194,10xCelsius option/Directive. Raw Attribute number
                   4079:        194 is ten times the disk temperature in Celsius.
                   4080: 
                   4081:   [DG] scsicmds.[hc] + scsiprint.c: clean up indentation, remove tabs.
                   4082:        Introduce new intermediate interface based on "struct scsi_cmnd_io"
                   4083:        to isolate SCSI generic commands + responses from Linux details;
                   4084:        should help port to FreeBSD of SCSI part of smartmontools.
                   4085:        Make SCSI command builders more parametric.
                   4086: 
                   4087: smartmontools-5.1-9
                   4088:   
                   4089:   [BA] smartctl: if HDIO_DRIVE_TASK ioctl() is not implemented (no
                   4090:        kernel support, then try to assess drive health by examining
                   4091:        Attribute values/thresholds directly.
                   4092: 
                   4093:   [BA] smartd/smartctl: added -v 200,writeerrorcount option/Directive
                   4094:        for Fujitsu disks.
                   4095: 
                   4096:   [BA] smartd: Now send email if any of the SMART commands fails,
                   4097:        or if open()ing the device fails.  This is often noted
                   4098:        as a common disk failure mode.
                   4099: 
                   4100:   [BA] smartd/smartctl: Added -v N,raw8 -v N,raw16 and -v N,raw48
                   4101:        Directives/Options for printing Raw Attributes in different
                   4102:        Formats.
                   4103: 
                   4104:   [BA] smartd: Added -r ID and -R ID for reporting/tracking Raw
                   4105:        values of Attributes.
                   4106: 
                   4107:   [BA] smartd/smartctl: Changed printing of spin-up-time attribute
                   4108:        raw value to reflect current/average as per IBM standard.
                   4109: 
                   4110:   [BA] smartd/smartctl: Added -v 9,seconds option for disks which
                   4111:        use Attribute 9 for power-on lifetime in seconds.
                   4112: 
                   4113:   [BA] smartctl: Added a warning message so that users of some IBM
                   4114:        disks are warned to update their firmware.  Note: we may want
                   4115:        to add a command-line flag to disable the warning messages.
                   4116:        I have done this in a general way, using regexp, so that we
                   4117:        can add warnings about any type of disk that we wish...
                   4118: 
                   4119: smartmontools-5.1-7
                   4120: 
                   4121:   [BA] smartd: Created a subdirectory examplescripts/ of source
                   4122:        directory that contains executable scripts for the -M exec PATH
                   4123:        Directive of smartd.
                   4124: 
                   4125: smartmontools-5.1-5
                   4126: 
                   4127:   [BA] smartd: DEVICESCAN in /etc/smartd.conf
                   4128:        can now be followed by all the same Directives as a regular
                   4129:        device name like /dev/hda takes.  This allows one to use
                   4130:        (for example):
                   4131:        DEVICESCAN -m root@example.com
                   4132:        in the /etc/smartd.conf file.
                   4133: 
                   4134:   [BA] smartd: Added -c (--checkonce) command-line option. This checks
                   4135:        all devices once, then exits.  The exit status can be
                   4136:        used to learn if devices were detected, and if smartd is
                   4137:        functioning correctly. This is primarily for Distribution
                   4138:        scripters.
                   4139: 
                   4140:   [BA] smartd: Implemented -M exec Directive for
                   4141:        smartd.conf.  This makes it possible to run an
                   4142:        arbitrary script or mailing program with the
                   4143:        -m option.
                   4144: 
                   4145:   [PW] smartd: Modified -M Directive so that it can be given

                   4151:        -d scsi didn't work because tryata and tryscsi were
                   4152:        reversed -- now works on /devfs SCSI devices.
                   4153: 
                   4154:   [BA] Fixed bug in smartctl pointed out by Gregory Goddard
                   4155:        <ggoddard@ufl.edu>.  Manual says that bit 6 of return
                   4156:        value turned on if errors found in smart error log.  But
                   4157:        this wasn't implemented.
                   4158: 
                   4159: smartmontools-5.1-3

                   4176:   [BA] smartd,smartctl: added additional Attribute modification option
                   4177:        -v 220,temp and -v 9,temp.
                   4178: 
                   4179:   [PW] Renamed smartd option -X to -d
                   4180:

                   4197:   [BA] smartd: fflush() all open streams before fork().
                   4198: 
                   4199:   [BA] smartctl, smartd simplified internal handling of checksums
                   4200:   for simpler porting and less code.
                   4201:

                   4209:   [PW] Added list of proposed new options for smartctl to README.
                   4210: 
                   4211:   [PW] smartd: ParseOpts() now uses getopt_long() if HAVE_GETOPT_LONG is
                   4212:   defined and uses getopt() otherwise.  This is controlled by CPPFLAGS in

                   4214: 
                   4215:   [BA] smartd: Fixed a couple of error messages done with perror()
                   4216:   to redirect them as needed.
                   4217: 
                   4218: smartmontools-5.0.48
                   4219: 
                   4220:   [BA] smartctl: The -O option to enable an Immediate off-line test
                   4221:   did not print out the correct time that the test would take to
                   4222:   complete.  This is because the test timer is volatile and not
                   4223:   fixed.  This has been fixed, and the smartctl.8 man page has been
                   4224:   updated to explain how to track the Immediate offline test as it
                   4225:   progresses, and to further emphasize the differences between the
                   4226:   off-line immediate test and the self-tests.
                   4227: 
                   4228:   [BA] smartd/smartctl: Added new attribute (200) Multi_Zone_Error_Rate
                   4229: 
                   4230:   [BA] smartctl: modified so that arguments could have either a single -
                   4231:   as in -ea or multiple ones as in -e -a.  Improved warning message for
                   4232:   device not opened, and fixed error in redirection of error output of
                   4233:   HD identity command.
                   4234: 
                   4235:   [PW] smartd: added support for long options.  All short options are still
                   4236:   supported; see manpage for available long options.
                   4237: 
                   4238:   [BA] smartctl.  When raw Attribute value was 2^31 or larger, did
                   4239:   not print correctly.

                   4243:   [BA] smartd: added smartd.conf Directives -T and -s.  The -T Directive
                   4244:   enables/disables Automatic Offline Testing.  The -s Directive
                   4245:   enables/disables Attribute Autosave. Documentation and
                   4246:   example configuration file updated to agree.
                   4247: 
                   4248:   [BA] smartd: user can make smartd check the disks at any time
                   4249:   (ie, interrupt sleep) by sending signal SIGUSR1 to smartd.  This
                   4250:   can be done for example with:
                   4251:   kill -USR1 <pid>
                   4252:   where <pid> is the process ID number of smartd.
                   4253: 
                   4254:   [EB] scsi: don't trust the data we receive from the drive too
                   4255:   much. It very well might have errors (like zero response length).
                   4256:   Seen on Megaraid logical drive, and verified in the driver source.
                   4257: 
                   4258:   [BA] smartd: added Directive -m for sending test email and
                   4259:   for modifying email reminder behavior.  Updated manual, and sample
                   4260:   configuration file to illustrate & explain this.
                   4261: 
                   4262:   [BA] smartd: increased size of a continued smartd.conf line to
                   4263:   1023 characters.
                   4264: 
                   4265:   [BA] Simplified Directive parsers and improved warning/error
                   4266:   messages.
                   4267: 
                   4268: smartmontools-5.0.45

                   4271:   prevented functioning on scsi devices.
                   4272:   The bug in question only affects smartd users with scsi devices.
                   4273:   To see if your version of smartd has the testunitready() bug, do
                   4274:      smartd -V
                   4275:   If the version of the module smartd.c in a line like:
                   4276:      Module: smartd.c      revision: 1.66   date: 2002/11/17
                   4277:   has a revision greater than or equal to 1.30, and less than or equal to
                   4278:   1.64, then your version of the code has this problem.
                   4279:   This problem affected releases starting with RELEASE_5_0_16 up to and
                   4280:   including RELEASE_5_0_43.
                   4281: 
                   4282:   [BA] Added testunitnotready to smartctl for symmetry with smartd.
                   4283: 
                   4284:   [SB] added Czech descriptions to .spec file
                   4285:   [SB]  corrected comment in smartd.conf example
                   4286: 
                   4287:   [BA] Changed way that entries in the ATA error log are printed,
                   4288:   to make it clearer which is the most recent error and
                   4289:   which is the oldest one.
                   4290: 
                   4291:   NOTE: All changes made prior to this point were done by Bruce Allen
                   4292:   [BA] although several of them had been suggested by earlier postings
                   4293:   by Stanislav Brabec [SB].

                   4296: 
                   4297:   Changed Temperature_Centigrade to Temperature_Celsius.
                   4298:   The term "Centigrade" ceased to exist in 1948.  (c.f

                   4303:   Modified SCSI device check to also send warning emails if
                   4304:   requested in directives file.
                   4305: 
                   4306:   Added a new smartd configuration file Directive: -M ADDRESS.
                   4307:   This sends a single warning email to ADDRESS for failures or
                   4308:   errors detected with the -c, -L, -l, or -f Directives.
                   4309:

                   4311: 
                   4312:   Modified perror() statements in atacmds.c so that printout for SMART
                   4313:   commands errors is properly suppressed or queued depending upon users
                   4314:   choices for error reporting modes.
                   4315: 
                   4316:   Added Italian descriptions to smartmontools.spec file.
                   4317: 
                   4318:   Started impementing send-mail-on-error for smartd; not yet enabled.
                   4319: 
                   4320:   Added -P (Permissive) Directive to smartd.conf file to allow SMART

                   4322:   a SMART capability bit.
                   4323:  
                   4324:   Removed charset encodings from smartmontools.spec file for non-English
                   4325:   fields.

                   4328: 
                   4329:   Added manual page smartd.conf.5 for configuration file.
                   4330: 
                   4331:   smartctl: Missing ANSI prototype in failuretest(); fixed.
                   4332: 
                   4333:   smartctl: Checksum warnings now printed on stdout, or are silent,

                   4338:   Changed Makefile so that the -V option does not reflect file state
                   4339:   before commit!
                   4340: 
                   4341:   smartctl: added new options -W, -U, and -P to control if and how the
                   4342:   smartctl exits if an error is detected in either a SMART data
                   4343:   structure checksum, or a SMART command returns an error.
                   4344: 
                   4345:   modified manual page to break options into slightly more logical
                   4346:   categories.
                   4347: 
                   4348:   reformatted 'usage' message order to agree with man page ordering
                   4349: 
                   4350:   modified .spec file so that locale information now contains
                   4351:   character set definition.   Changed pt_BR to pt since we do not use any
                   4352:   aspect other than language.  See man setlocale.
                   4353:

                   4369: 
                   4370:   Added a new directive for the configuration file.  If the word
                   4371:   DEVICESCAN appears before any non-commented material in the
                   4372:   configuration file, then the confi file will be ignored and the
                   4373:   devices wil be scanned.
                   4374: 
                   4375: smartmontools-5.0.24
                   4376: 
                   4377:     Note: it has now been confirmed that the code modifications between
                   4378:     5.0.23 and 5.0.24 have eliminated the GCC 3.2 problems.  Note that
                   4379:     there is a GCC bug howerver, see #8404 at
                   4380:     http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?database=gcc&cmd=query

                   4382: 
                   4383:       Added new Directive for Configuration file:
                   4384:       -C <N> This sets the time in between disk checks to be <N>
                   4385:       seconds apart.  Note that  although  you  can  give
                   4386:        this Directive multiple times on different lines of
                   4387:        the configuration file, only the final  value  that
                   4388:        is  given  has  an  effect,  and applies to all the
                   4389:        disks.  The default value of <N> is 1800  sec,  and
                   4390:        the minimum allowed value is ten seconds.
                   4391: 
                   4392:     Problem wasn't the print format. F.L.W. Meunier <0@pervalidus.net>
                   4393:     sent me a gcc 3.2 build and I ran it under a debugger.  The
                   4394:     problem seems to be with passing the very large (2x512+4) byte
                   4395:     data structures as arguments.  I never liked this anyway; it was
                   4396:     inherited from smartsuite.  So I've changed all the heavyweight
                   4397:     functions (ATA ones, anyone) to just passing pointers, not hideous
                   4398:     kB size structures on the stack.  Hopefully this will now build OK
                   4399:     under gcc 3.2 with any sensible compilation options.
                   4400:

                   4402: 
                   4403:     Because of reported problems with GCC 3.2 compile, I have gone
                   4404:     thorough the code and explicitly changed all print format
                   4405:     parameters to correspond EXACTLY to int unless they have to be
                   4406:     promoted to long longs.  To quote from the glibc bible: [From
                   4407:     GLIBC Manual: Since the prototype doesn't specify types for
                   4408:     optional arguments, in a call to a variadic function the default
                   4409:     argument promotions are performed on the optional argument
                   4410:     values. This means the objects of type char or short int (whether
                   4411:     signed or not) are promoted to either int or unsigned int, as
                   4412:     appropriate.]

                   4418: 
                   4419:     Fixed nasty bug which led to wrong number of arguments for a
                   4420:     varargs statement, with attendent stack corruption.  Sheesh!
                   4421:     Have added script to CVS attic to help find such nasties in the
                   4422:     future.

                   4430: 
                   4431:     Did some revision of the man page for smartd and made the usage
                   4432:     messages for Directives 100% consistent.
                   4433: 
                   4434: smartmontools-5.0-19
                   4435: 
                   4436:     smartd: prints warning message when it gets SIGHUP, saying that it
                   4437:     is NOT re-reading the config file.
                   4438: 
                   4439:     smartctl: updated man page to say self-test commands -O,x,X,s,S,A
                   4440:     appear to be supported in the code.  [I can't test these,  can anyone
                   4441:     report?]
                   4442: 
                   4443: smartmontools-5.0-18
                   4444: 
                   4445:     smartctl: smartctl would previously print the LBA of a self-test
                   4446:     if it completed, and the LBA was not 0 or 0xff...f However
                   4447:     according to the specs this is not correct.  According to the
                   4448:     specs, if the self-test completed without error then LBA is
                   4449:     undefined.  This version fixes that.  LBA value only printed if
                   4450:     self-test encountered an error.
                   4451: 
                   4452: smartmontools-5.0-17
                   4453: 
                   4454:     smartd has changed significantly. This is the first CVS checkin of
                   4455:     code that extends the options available for smartd.  The following
                   4456:     options can be placed into the /etc/smartd.conf file, and control the
                   4457:     behavior of smartd.
                   4458:     Configuration file Directives (following device name):
                   4459:     -A     Device is an ATA device
                   4460:     -S     Device is a SCSI device
                   4461:     -c     Monitor SMART Health Status
                   4462:     -l     Monitor SMART Error Log for changes
                   4463:     -L     Monitor SMART Self-Test Log for new errors
                   4464:     -f     Monitor for failure of any 'Usage' Attributes
                   4465:     -p     Report changes in 'Prefailure' Attributes
                   4466:     -u     Report changes in 'Usage' Attributes
                   4467:     -t     Equivalent to -p and -u Directives
                   4468:     -a     Equivalent to -c -l -L -f -t Directives
                   4469:     -i ID  Ignore Attribute ID for -f Directive
                   4470:     -I ID  Ignore Attribute ID for -p, -u or -t Directive
                   4471:     #      Comment: text after a hash sign is ignored
                   4472:     \      Line continuation character
                   4473: 
                   4474:     cleaned up functions used for printing CVS IDs.  Now use string
                   4475:     library, as it should be.
                   4476: 
                   4477:     modified length of device name string in smartd internal structure
                   4478:     to accomodate max length device name strings
                   4479: 
                   4480:     removed un-implemented (-e = Email notification) option from
                   4481:     command line arg list.  We'll put it back on when implemeneted.
                   4482: 
                   4483:     smartd now logs serious (fatal) conditions in its operation at
                   4484:     loglevel LOG_CRIT rather than LOG_INFO before exiting with error.
                   4485: 
                   4486:     smartd used to open a file descriptor for each SMART enabled
                   4487:     device, and then keep it open the entire time smartd was running.
                   4488:     This meant that some commands, like IOREADBLKPART did not work,
                   4489:     since the fd to the device was open.  smartd now opens the device
                   4490:     when it needs to read values, then closes it.  Also, if one time
                   4491:     around it can't open the device, it simply prints a warning
                   4492:     message but does not give up.  Have eliminated the .fd field from
                   4493:     data structures -- no longer gets used.
                   4494: 
                   4495:     smartd now opens SCSI devices as well using O_RDONLY rather than
                   4496:     O_RDWR.  If someone can no longer monitor a SCSI device that used
                   4497:     to be readable, this may well be the reason why.
                   4498: 
                   4499:     smartd never checked if the number of ata or scsi devices detected
                   4500:     was greater than the max number it could monitor.  Now it does.
                   4501: 
                   4502: smartmontools-5.0-16
                   4503: 
                   4504:     smartd on startup now looks in the configuration file /etc/smartd.conf for
                   4505:     a list of devices which to include in its monitoring list.  See man page
                   4506:     (man smartd) for syntax.
                   4507: 
                   4508:     smartd: close file descriptors of SCSI device if not SMART capable
                   4509:     Closes ALL file descriptors after forking to daemon.
                   4510: 
                   4511:     added new temperature attribute (231, temperature)
                   4512: 
                   4513:     smartd: now open ATA disks using O_RDONLY
                   4514: 
                   4515: smartmontools-5.0-11
                   4516: 
                   4517:     smartd now prints the name of a failed or changed attribute
                   4518:     into logfile, not just ID number
                   4519: 
                   4520:     Changed name of -p (print version) option to -V
                   4521: 
                   4522:     Minor change in philosophy: if a SMART command fails or the device
                   4523:     appears incapable of a SMART command that the user has asked for,
                   4524:     complain by printing an error message, but go ahead and try
                   4525:     anyway.  Since unimplemented SMART commands should just return an
                   4526:     error but not cause disk problems, this should't cause any
                   4527:     difficulty.
                   4528: 
                   4529:     Added two new flags: q and Q.  q is quiet mode - only print: For
                   4530:     the -l option, errors recorded in the SMART error log; For the -L
                   4531:     option, errors recorded in the device self-test log; For the -c
                   4532:     SMART "disk failing" status or device attributes (pre-failure or
                   4533:     usage) which failed either now or in the past; For the -v option
                   4534:     device attributes (pre-failure or usage) which failed either now
                   4535:     or in the past.  Q is Very Quiet mode: Print no ouput.  The only
                   4536:     way to learn about what was found is to use the exit status of
                   4537:     smartctl.
                   4538: 
                   4539:     smartctl now returns sensible values (bitmask).  See smartctl.h
                   4540:     for the values, and the man page for documentation.
                   4541: 
                   4542:     The SMART status check now uses the correct ATA call.  If failure
                   4543:     is detected we search through attributes to list the failed ones.
                   4544:     If the SMART status check shows GOOD, we then look to see if their
                   4545:     are any usage attributes or prefail attributes have failed at any
                   4546:     time.  If so we print them.
                   4547: 
                   4548:     Modified function that prints vendor attributes to say if the
                   4549:     attribute has currently failed or has ever failed.
                   4550: 
                   4551:     -p option now prints out license info and CVS strings for all
                   4552:     modules in the code, nicely formatted.
                   4553: 
                   4554:     Previous versions of this code (and Smartsuite) only generate
                   4555:     SMART failure errors if the value of an attribute is below the
                   4556:     threshold and the prefailure bit is set.  However the ATA Spec
                   4557:     (ATA4 <=Rev 4) says that it is a SMART failure if the value of an
                   4558:     attribute is LESS THAN OR EQUAL to the threshold and the
                   4559:     prefailure bit is set.  This is now fixed in both smartctl and
                   4560:     smartd.  Note that this is a troubled subject -- the original
                   4561:     SFF 8035i specification defining SMART was inconsistent about
                   4562:     this.  One section says that Attribute==Threshold is pass,
                   4563:     and another section says it is fail.  However the ATA specs are
                   4564:     consistent and say Attribute==Threshold is a fail.
                   4565: 
                   4566:     smartd did not print the correct value of any failing SMART attribute.  It
                   4567:     printed the index in the attribute table, not the attribute
                   4568:     ID. This is fixed.
                   4569: 
                   4570:     when starting self-tests in captive mode ioctl returns EIO because
                   4571:     the drive has been busied out.  Detect this and don't return an eror
                   4572:     in this case.  Check this this is correct (or how to fix it?)
                   4573:  
                   4574:     fixed possible error in how to determine ATA standard support
                   4575:     for devices with no ATA minor revision number.
                   4576: 
                   4577:     device opened only in read-only not read-write mode.  Don't need R/W 
                   4578:     access to get smart data. Check this with Andre.
                   4579: 
                   4580:     smartctl now handles all possible choices of "multiple options"
                   4581:     gracefully.  It goes through the following phases of operation,
                   4582:     in order: INFORMATION, ENABLE/DISABLE, DISPLAY DATA, RUN/ABORT TESTS.
                   4583:     Documentation has bee updated to explain the different phases of
                   4584:     operation.  Control flow through ataPrintMain()
                   4585:     simplified.
                   4586: 
                   4587:     If reading device identity information fails, try seeing if the info
                   4588:     can be accessed using a "DEVICE PACKET" command.  This way we can
                   4589:     at least get device info.
                   4590: 
                   4591:     Modified Makefile to automatically tag CVS archive on issuance of
                   4592:     a release
                   4593: 
                   4594:     Modified drive detection so minor device ID code showing ATA-3 rev
                   4595:     0 (no SMART) is known to not be SMART capable.
                   4596: 
                   4597:     Now verify the checksum of the device ID data structure, and of the
                   4598:     attributes threshold structure.  Before neither of these
                   4599:     structures had their checksums verified.
                   4600: 
                   4601:     New behavior vis-a-vis checksums.  If they are wrong, we log
                   4602:     warning messages to stdout, stderr, and syslog, but carry on
                   4603:     anyway.  All functions now call a checksumwarning routine if the
                   4604:     checksum doesn't vanish as it should.
                   4605: 
                   4606:     Changed Read Hard Disk Identity function to get fresh info from
                   4607:     the disk on each call rather than to use the values that were read
                   4608:     upon boot-up into the BIOS.  This is the biggest change in this
                   4609:     release.  The ioctl(device, HDIO_GET_IDENTITY, buf ) call should
                   4610:     be avoided in such code.  Note that if people get garbled strings
                   4611:     for the model, serial no and firmware versions of their drives,
                   4612:     then blame goes here (the BIOS does the byte swapping for you,
                   4613:     apparently!)
                   4614:     
                   4615:     Function ataSmartSupport now looks at correct bits in drive
                   4616:     identity structure to verify first that these bits are valid,
                   4617:     before using them.
                   4618:     
                   4619:     Function ataIsSmartEnabled() written which uses the Drive ID state
                   4620:     information to tell if SMART is enabled or not.  We'll carry this
                   4621:     along for the moment without using it.
                   4622: 
                   4623:     Function ataDoesSmartWork() guaranteed to work if the device
                   4624:     supports SMART.
                   4625: 
                   4626:     Replace some numbers by #define MACROS
                   4627: 
                   4628:     Wrote Function TestTime to return test time associated with each
                   4629:     different type of test.
                   4630: 
                   4631:     Thinking of the future, have added a new function called
                   4632:     ataSmartStatus2().  Eventually when I understand how to use the
                   4633:     TASKFILE API and am sure that this works correctly, it will
                   4634:     replace ataSmartStatus().  This queries the drive directly to
                   4635:     see if the SMART status is OK, rather than comparing thresholds to
                   4636:     attribute values ourselves. But I need to get some drives that fail
                   4637:     their SMART status to check it.
                   4638: 
                   4639: 
                   4640: smartmontools-5.0-10
                   4641:     Removed extraneous space before printing in some error messages
                   4642:     Fixed additional typos in documentation
                   4643:     Fixed some character buffers that were too short for their contents.
                   4644: 
                   4645: smartmontools-5.0-9
