+ [BA] Fix smartctl bug: when running in silent mode '-q errorsonly'
+ do not print the Selective Self-test log. Any errors will
+ ALREADY appear in the SMART Self-test log.
+
+ [CF] Add missing 'const' and other minor fixes to prevent gcc warnings.
+
+ [OB] Added information message about supported Areca firmware versions.
+ It's displayed in case the ATA device identification fails.
+
+ [CF] Add configuration file for Doxygen.
+
+ [CF] Add new object oriented interface to access ATA and SCSI devices.
+ smartctl and smartd are modified to use the new classes in
+ 'dev_interface.{h,cpp}'. The template class in 'dev_tunnelled.h'
+ is used in 'scsiata.cpp'. The code in 'dev_ata_cmd_set.{h,cpp}'
+ supports migration from old function 'ata_command_interface()'.
+ All existing 'os_*.cpp' modules should still work without any changes.
+ The required adapter classes from 'dev_legacy.cpp' are automatically
+ added by configure if necessary.
+
+ [BA] Updated smartd and smartctl and smartd.conf man-page documentation
+ to reflect support for Areca SATA RAID controller cards.
+
+ [OB] Added support for Areca controllers to smartd. Extensive tests
+ as well as documentation are still pending however.
+
+ [OB] Implemented device locking for Areca controllers in smartctl
+
+ [BA] Fixed selective self-test code. Data structure revision number
+ may be != 1 if no selective self-test has ever been run. Host
+ MUST set this value (at least at the first selective self-test
+ instance). Thanks to Curtis Stevens of WDC for clarification.
+
+ [MC] usbcypress autodetection
+
+ [BA] Starting to commit Areca code. For now just smartctl.
+ More changes and documentation coming soon.
+ Need Areca firmware version 1.45 dated 10 June 2008 or later.
+ May need changes in opening /dev/sg and file locking.
+ Many thanks to Hank Wu!
+
+ [CF] smartd: Fix too small name buffer for 3ware with >100 devices.
+
+ [JH] now C++ Support for QNX Target
+ already tested for QNX 6.3.2 on x86 and armle target
+
+ [CF] Allows one to set BUILD_INFO from make command line.
+
+ [CF] Windows: Add MSVC8 support, remove MSVC6 project files.
+
+ [MC] Add usbcypress device support for smartd.
+
+ [CF] Add output of latest CVS date/time stamp to version info.
+ New file cvsversion.h is generated by Makefile.
+ Move formatting of version info to utility.cpp.
+
+ [AR] Fix bug in 3ware node creation where nodes would be created
+ then deleted, then recreated.
+
+ [BA] Add missing CCISS cvs version tags to '-V' printouts.
+
+ [TS] Linux: Ensure the 3ware device nodes are created with a correct
+ SELinux security context.
+
+ [AR] Add support for up to 128 devices on 3ware controllers.
+
+ [CF] C++: Added new main() with exception handlers, replaced
+ exit(x) with throw(x), removed global variable 'exitstatus'.
+ Necessary for future changes, because exit() does not call
+ any destructors.
+
+ [SS] FreeBSD: plug file descriptor leak in smartd (only happens with
+ CISS devices). Reported by Vadim Ostranitsyn.
+
+ [SS] FreeBSD: allow smartctl to interact with SCSI /dev/pass devices,
+ thus enabling it to work with RAID controllers that expose disks
+ via these devices. From scottl@ via FreeBSD ports.
+
+ [MC] Add usbcypress device support for smartctl.
+
+ [KS] INSTALL on Solaris: updated description to use C++ compiler.
+
+ [KS] configure.in on Solaris: added options for Sun's compiler to
+ suppress trivial warnings.
+
+ [KS] configure.in on Solaris: added direction to search suitable
+ libraries for getaddrinfo().
+
+ [TS] smartd on Linux: remove forgotten return from deviceopen();
+ SCSI device descriptors had the FD_CLOEXEC flag unset.
+
+ [CF] Added 'const' to avoid warning on depreciated string constant
+ to 'char *' conversion.
+
+ [CF] autogen.sh: automake 1.10.1 is OK. Updated message texts.
+
+ [BA] removed smartmontools.spec file (now in CVS Attic). This
+ was not being used by RH or FC anyhow, and was out of
+ date and not maintained.
+
+ [BA] smartd on Linux: sets FD_CLOEXEC on the opened device file
+ descriptor. The descriptor is otherwise leaked to other
+ applications (mail sender) which may be considered a security
+ risk and may result in AVC messages on SELinux-enabled systems.
+ Thanks to: Tomá Smetana" <tsmetana@redhat.com>.
+
+ [BA] smartd: when sending email, to gather information about the
+ host for the body of the email, eliminate gethostbyname()
+ in favor of the IPv6-friendly function getaddrinfo() if the
+ latter is available. Info may be found here
+ http://udrepper.livejournal.com/16116.html
+ and here
+ http://people.redhat.com/drepper/userapi-ipv6.html
+ Thanks to: Tomá Smetana" <tsmetana@redhat.com>.
+
+ Smartmontools developers: please check that smartd still LINKS
+ properly on your systems.
+
+ [BA] Fix ugly syntax bug in os_freebsd.cpp. How did this go
+ undetected for so long??
+
+SMARTMONTOOLS STABLE RELEASE 5.38 2008/03/10
+
+ [KS] Solaris/x86: modified configure.in for Sun's compiler.
+
+ [BA] smartd.initd.in addition from Erwan Velu <erwan@seanodes.com>
+
+ [BA] smartd fixes:
+
+ - On Linux, DEVICESCAN now automatically recognizes SATA devices
+ behind libata, and SATA devices behind the Marvell driver, and
+ treats them correctly.
+
+ - On Linux, a '-d sat' or '-d marvell' is automatically added
+ if libata or the marvell driver are recognized behind a SCSI
+ device type
+
+ [SS] (Maybe) fix attribute autosave in FreeBSD.
+
+ [SS] Major NetBSD-specific bugfixes:
+ - handle actual SCSI and ATA errors and not only ioctl() errors;
+ - set up I/O request properly for AUTO_OFFLINE and AUTOSAVE commands (inspired by
+ similar change in os_freebsd.cpp);
+ - handle AUTO_OFFLINE and AUTOSAVE like STATUS_CHECK (like os_linux.cpp does).
+
+ [GG] add kfreebsd gnu support to configure.in
+
+ [BA] Fix auto-offline support in FreeBSD. Thanks to
+ Cyrus Rahman <crahman@gmail.com> for the patch, and
+ Eduard Martinescu for blessing it.
+
+ [DG] smartd re-opens "SCSI" devices as ATA devices if a SAT layer is
+ detected (smartd bug IMO). In Linux this upsets scsi generic
+ device nodes (e.g. /dev/sg0). Detect the re-open in os_linux.cpp
+ and set the O_RDWR flag (ATA uses the O_RDONLY flag).
+
+ [CF] Drive database: Added Fujitsu MHW2 BH, Maxtor DiamondMax 17, 20, 21,
+ Hitachi Travelstar 4K40, 5K120, 7K200, Deskstar 7K160, T7K500,

+
+ [CF] Replaced 'head [-n] -1' by 'sed 1...' in autogen.sh to avoid
+ portability issues.
+
+ [BA] Fixed autogen.sh script so that it uses 'grep -n 1' if 'grep -1'
+ fails. Needed for Mac OS X 10.4. Uck.
+
+ [CF] Windows: Added IOCTL_STORAGE_PREDICT_FAILURE. This allows access
+ to ATA SMART status and data if other calls do not work.
+ Thanks to Jaroslaw Kowalski for pointing this out.
+ Added support to use this function without admin rights.
+
+ [CF] Added ATA-8 revision 4c message text.
+

+ configure warning.
+
+ [SS] DragonFly support added (using os_freebsd code; untested).
+
+ [CF] smartctl: Fixed ATA identify byte swapping issue on big-endian
+ platforms. This regression was introduced by the change for
+ '-F swapid'. Thanks to Matthew Butch for bug report and testing.
+
+ [DG] SAT/SCSI: Improve SAT error processing code. Aborted commands from
+ ATA devices (typically because SMART was disabled) were not being
+ properly detected.
+
+ [GG] smartd: wait for the pid file to show up, return an error if it doesn't
+
+ [JH] fix bad return code (get STATUS) for QNX Part
+
+ [JH] initial porting to QNX Neutrino 6.3.2
+ need at this time a prerelease devb-eide driver and libcam.so.2
+ only tested for X86 Target, but devb-eide and lobcam.so.2 available for X86/ARM
+ the officional driver coming soon with the next QNX release
+ create two new source files os_qnxnto.[c..h]
+
+ [CF] smartd: Added option '-n, --no-fork' so that smartd works
+ better with modern init methods. Thanks to Enrico Scholz
+ for the patch from 2005-12-24.
+
+ [CF] Windows: Improved ATA/SCSI device type detection and
+ DEVICESCAN. This also fixes a regression in 3ware DEVICESCAN.
+
+ [CF] smartd: Don't start self tests in first pass to avoid
+ performance problems during boot.
+ https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=192591
+
+ [CF] Fixed regression in SMART STATUS command on Win9x/ME.
+
+ [BA] Fixed 3ware issue with new controllers. Documentation said
+ that one could address up to 24 disks on a single controller,
+ but in fact one was limited to 16 disks. This is now fixed:
+ up to 32 disks can be addressed. Thanks to Adam Radford.
+
+ NOTE1: I have patched the Linux and FreeBSD code but not
+ modified the Win32 code (it already supports up to 32 disks).
+
+ NOTE2: NOT TESTED ON LINUX. Do not use this on a production box!
+ I will remove this NOTE2 as soon as some positive test
+ reports are received.
+
+ NOTE3: NOT TESTED ON FREEBSD. Do not use this on a production box!
+ I will remove this NOTE3 as soon as some positive test
+ reports are received.
+
+ [CF] Windows installer: Added explorer drive menu, CMD window,
+ UBCD4Win plugin, smartd service update and other minor
+ improvements.
+
+ [CF] Windows: Modified drive letter handling for explorer drive
+ context menu: try SCSI if type is unknown, allow 'X:\.' syntax.
+
+ [CF] Windows: Added automatic ATA/SCSI device type detection and
+ SCSI device scanning. The device names '/dev/sdX' and
+ '/dev/pd<n>' now work for both ATA and SCSI disks.
+
+ [CF] smartctl: Added ability to parse '-r ataioctl,2' output from
+ stdin ('-') and simulate the ATA commands for testing purposes.
+
+ [BA] SMART Attributes: added 187, 189, more accurate name for 190.
+
+ [CF] Windows: Added drive letters 'X:' as alternate disk device names.
+
+ [CF] smartctl: Added '-F swapid' to fix ATA identify string byte
+ ordering. Added '-q noserial' to suppress serial number output.
+
+ [CF] Windows: Added '/dev/n?st<n>' as alternate device names for SCSI
+ tapes. These names are also used by Cygwin's /dev emulation layer.
+ Thanks to Corinna Vinschen (Cygwin project lead) for pointing this
+ out.
+
+ [CF] Windows: Added IOCTL_SCSI_MINIPORT_*SMART* for commands not handled
+ properly by SMART_IOCTL in disk class driver. This allows one to use
+ READ_LOG, WRITE_LOG and ABORT_SELFTEST even if the driver does not
+ support ATA_PASS_THROUGH.
+
+ [CF] Added ATA-8 revision 4, fixed WRITE LOG '-r ioctl' output.
+
+ [BA] Updated smartctl and smartd so that they can be used with the latest
+ 3ware controllers which have 24 ports. Also updated docs.
+ Thanks to Tim Bell at CERN.
+
+ [GG] bit 4 in smartctl's return code might be set even when the dist check
+ didn't return "DISK OK"
+
+ [CF] Drive database: added '-F samsung3' for Samsung P80 firmware
+ BH100-35.
+
+ [SS] Applied patch from Dean Bennett to fix scheduled tests on
+ Highpoint RAID controllers.
+
+ [BA] Added patch from Tejun Heo http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/13222/focus=13235
+ to fix broken auto-offline and auto-save via libata. Very clean fix: does it
+ "the right way". Thanks Tejun!
+
+ [CF] Added message text for ATA-7 self-test execution status 8
+ ("... handling damage").
+
+ [GG] cciss: support more than 16 disks (patch taken from
+ http://cciss.sourceforge.net/smartmontools_cciss_more_than_16_drives.patch
+ and adjusted for smartd)
+
+ [DG] Solaris: [SCSI] add USCSI_RQENABLE flag to uscsi pass-through so
+ sense buffer is made available. Expand reporting at this level.
+
+ [GK] Darwin: Improve handling of powered-down drives.
+
+ [SS] CCISS physical drive enumeration method changed (incompatibly).
+
+ [CF] Fixed smartd crash on missing '-s' directive argument.
+
+ [SS] Support CCISS on FreeBSD (kernel source is required until FreeBSD PR 109813
+ is fixed).
+
+ [DG] SCSI/TAPE: some IBM tape drives don't react properly to a LOG
+ SENSE with an allocation length of 4; work around for that case.
+
+ [CF] Applied Guido's patch to fix CCISS LUN array bounds check
+ (openSUSE bug #239956) and remove trailing spaces in
+ os_linux.cpp.
+
+ [CF] Fixed 64-bit compilation issue in SCT status struct.
+
+ [DG] SAT/SCSI: make real SCSI disks visible to DEVICESCAN in
+ smartd again.

+ temperature information and history table provided by
+ SMART Command Transport (SCT) Feature Set.
+
+ [CF] ATA: Added '-t selective,{redo,next,cont}' commands to
+ perform tests based on the last ranges still stored on
+ disk. Added 'N+SIZE' and 'N-max' format for LBA range
+ specification.
+
+ [CF] Added Min/Max Temperature format used in attribute 190 of
+ recent Maxtor disks (DiamondMax 20).
+
+ [CF] Linux: Added check for <linux/cciss_ioctl.h> to allow build
+ (without CCISS support) also when this file is missing.
+
+ [CF] Added -F samsung3 option to correct firmware bug reporting
+ completed self-tests as still in progress. Thanks to Manfred
+ Schwarb for the patch.
+
+ [CF] Added missing const specifiers (undetected by gcc 3.4 and 4.X)
+ to fix compilation with gcc 2.X.
+
+ [CF] Linux: compile fix for SuSE, config.h must be included first.
+
+smartmontools 5.37 Experimental Release
+
+ [CF] Windows: Added alternate method for (limited) monitoring of
+ 3ware controllers by parsing the output of CLI or 3DM.
+ Either "tw_cli" can be run internally ("/dev/tw_cli/cx/py"),
+ or data can be read from standard input ("/dev/tw_cli/stdin")
+ or clipboard ("/dev/tw_cli/clip").
+
+ [DG] Remove linux specific libata detect code; rely on general SAT
+ code. smartd should now generate a sensible log message for
+ ATA devices behind a SAT layer on all architectures.
+
+ [BA] Increased max line length MAXLINELEN for /etc/smartd.conf from
+ 128 to 256 characters to handle long strings in
+ /dev/disk/by-id. Thanks to Martin Krafft.
+

+ present. Thanks to SB.
+
+ [BA] smartd: DEVICESCAN will now pick up SATA/SAT devices
+ attached to a SCSI device tree via SAT translation.
+ Note: this is a bit of a hack. I will document it once
+ I know if this needs to be Linux only or can have more
+ general application.
+
+ [BA] Added a couple SATA commands to the tables -- thanks DG!
+ Phil -- how about going through and systematically adding
+ these new commands to atacmdnames.cpp?
+
+ [BA] Linux s86_64: get rid of some compiler warnings on
+ x86_64 Linux systems.
+
+ [CF] Windows: Added missing support for READ_LOG, ABORT_SELFTEST

+
+ [SS] NetBSD: Deliver strings from ata_identify_device properly
+ on little- and big-endian platforms.
+
+ [BA] Added published ANSI ATA-7 spec to list of recognized ATA
+ versions.
+
+ [BA] Code janitor: added missing header strings for '-V' option.
+
+ [DG] [SATA] Extend 'sat' device type to allow either 12 or 16 byte
+ variant of the SAT ATA PASS THROUGH SCSI command. Syntax is
+ '-d sat,<n>' where <n> can be 0, 12 or 16 . The ',<n>' part
+ is optional. Currently defaults to 16 byte variant but that
+ could be made platform or even device dependent.
+
+ [DG] [SATA] Add new 'sat' device type for SATA disks behind a
+ SCSI to ATA Translation (SAT) Layer (SATL). Uses the ATA
+ PASS THROUGH (16) SCSI command thence the generic SCSI
+ passthrough for each platform.
+
+ [CF] Windows: Added script and make targets to create installer
+ with NSIS (http://nsis.sourceforge.net/)
+
+ [CF] Updated hostname and links for new SourceForge CVS service.

+ and warn if temperature limits are reached.
+
+ [CF] Windows: Added IOCTL_ATA_PASS_THROUGH (Win2003, XP SP2)
+ for commands unsupported by SMART_IOCTL. Added device
+ specific options to select subset and ordering of the ATA
+ IOCTLs actually used. These options are specified as
+ modifiers of the device name (/dev/hd[a-j]:[saic]+)
+
+ [CF] Windows: Added support for drives 4-7 (/dev/hd[e-h]) via
+ SMARTVSE.VXD on Win9x/ME. Thanks to Dariusz Rzonca for
+ patch and testing.
+
+ [DG] [SCSI/SATA linux] from lk 2.6.17 SATA disk identification in
+ libata will change. Expand LibAta detection to see old
+ identifier and new variant (VPD page 0x83).
+
+ [BA] Identified Attribute 190 for Western Digital disks. This
+ stores temperature in Celsius, just like Attribute 194.
+ But it has a failure threshold set to correspond to the
+ maximum design operating temperature of the disk, which
+ is 55 Celsius on the WD800JD drives that I studied.
+ So if this Attribute has 'failed
+ in the past' this means that the maximum disk operating
+ temperature has been exceeded.
+
+ [GK] Darwin: Add support for AHCI drivers found in Intel-based Macs.
+

+ from ASPI adapter 0-3 to 0-9. Added diagnostic messages.
+
+ [CF] Windows smartd: Added ability to run .bat files via '-M exec'
+ directive.
+
+ [CF] Cygwin smartd: Added FreeConsole() after fork() to avoid hang
+ of terminated shell console window.
+
+ [DG] [SCSI] Add code so 'smartctl -A' outputs the number of elements
+ in the grown defect list. When this number is increasing a
+ disk has problems. N.B. Similar logic should be added to smartd.
+
+ [CF] Windows smartd: Fixed event handling to allow start of another
+ smartd process when service is already running. Useful for testing
+ service configuration changes in debug mode.

+
+ [BA] Linux: smartd init script now recognizes 'trustix' distro.
+
+ [DG] [SCSI] Medium and hardware errors were slipping through
+ unreported. Fix linux SCSI sense reporting via SG_IO ioctl.
+
+ [DG] [SCSI] Change lba of first failure in selftest output to
+ decimal (was hex) to conform with ATA output.
+

+ -d argument
+
+ [CF] Windows: fixed SCSI timeout handling to allow long timeouts
+ for selftests.
+
+ [CF] Fixed buffer overflow issues in printone() and safe_vsnprintf()
+ which results in crash on -V option (at least on Windows).
+
+ [DG] [SCSI] Add explicit timeouts to INQUIRY and REQUEST SENSE (that
+ were missed in an earlier patch). Could have impacted freebsd.
+
+ [DG] When linux detects a sata_via_libata disk suggest that user try
+ '-d ata' (rather then '-d libata). Anticipate kernel change.
+
+ [YD] Added OS/2 and eComStation platform support.

+
+ [CF] Windows: Added support for READ_LOG on WinNT4 using undocumented
+ pseudo SCSI command via IOCTL_SCSI_PASS_THROUGH.
+
+ [CF] smartd: Added ',q' option for '-n' directive to suppress 'skipping
+ checks' log message. This prevents a laptop disk from spinning up
+ due to this message. Thanks to Rob MacLachlan and Manfred Schwarb
+ for pointing out problem & solution.
+
+ [CF] Windows: Added function get_os_version_str() to show OS flavor in
+ copyright message.
+
+ [CF] Windows: Added function ata_identify_is_cached() to check for outdated
+ SMART enabled bit in identify data.

+ of smartd service on WinNT4.
+
+ [CF] Windows: Fixed error checking of IOCTL_IDE_PASS_THROUGH (used
+ for READ_LOG on 2000/XP). Added some diagnostic messages on
+ -r ataioctl[,2]. Thanks to Manfred Schwarb for bug report and testing.
+
+ [BA] Fixed code bug that made it impossible to enable SMART on
+ disks with failing health status. This would happen if the
+ os_*.c author made STATUS and STATUS_CHECK work the same way.
+ I have corrected this at a higher level; we now handle the
+ case where STATUS and STATUS_CHECK are identical without
+ issues.
+
+ [LW] Make os_linux.c/marvell_command_interface() always return 0 on STATUS.
+ Needed for a disk having bad SMART status.
+
+ [CF] smartctl: Added drive family printing.
+
+ [CF] autogen.sh: Allow automake 1.9, added message if automake
+ version is unknown.
+
+ [BA] smartctl: use locale-specific separators for printing disk
+ capacity. Also use AC_CHECK_HEADERS not AC_CHECK_HEADER in
+ configure.in.
+
+ [BA] clean-up of #include structure so that -V options to smartd
+ and smartctl work correctly. Please, don't #include header
+ files into other header files.
+
+smartmontools 5.33 Experimental Release
+
+ [BA] smartctl: ATA disks, if SMART ATTRIBUTE THRESHOLDS page has ID
+ errors with some Attributes having NULL IDs, print Attribute
+ info anyway (but issuing a warning to the user).

+
+ [EM] Remove 3ware/FreeBSD specific files and just include pieces we need
+
+ [DG] Add logic in smartd to detect 3ware, Marvell controllers and SATA
+ disks behind an ATA-SCSI simulator (in Linux). If specific device
+ types are not given and they are picked in a general SCSI device
+ scan then warn and skip.
+
+ [GG] insert correct path to smartd into smartd's init script
+
+ [BA] Changed all default paths in documentation to reflect /usr/local as
+ default path prefix. This affects on-line man pages, primarily.
+
+ [DS] Added support for OpenBSD
+
+ [BA] Added another environment variable SMART_FULLMESSAGE set by
+ the smartd mailing feature, and modified examplescripts/Example1
+ to illustrate it.

+ [BA] Fixed nasty DEVICESCAN bug
+
+ [BA] Checked in RELEASE_5_33_WITH_MARVELL_SUPPORT branch with
+ some Marvell support.
+
+ [BA] Additional modifications of Ed's controller scheme. Fixed
+ broken 3ware support under linux, problems with scanning
+ devices in smartd, and other small problems.
+
+ [CF] Added make targets to build formatted man pages (htmlman, txtman),
+ Windows distribution (dist-win32) and MSVC6 config.h (config-vc6).
+
+ [EM] Minor change to FreeBSD inclusion of 'twe' include files. Add
+ code to check if they existing in /usr/include/sys to use those
+ in preference to ones added here
+
+ [EM] Very preliminary support attempt for 3Ware controllers under
+ FreeBSD. Also, switched 'escalade_type/escalade_port' to
+ 'controler_type/controller_port' and moved away from
+ 'tryata/tryscsi' to using new 'controller*' variables to
+ determine which controller type (ATA/SCSI/3Ware) to use.
+
+ [GK] Added initscript support for Darwin.
+
+ [CF] Windows smartd: Added ability to run smartd as a windows service,
+ including new commands "smartd install ..." and "smartd remove"
+ to install and remove the service registry entry.
+
+ [BA] smartd: warn user if -s regexp regular expression contains
+ characters other than 0123456789.*()|+?[-]{}:=SLCO since such
+ characters are 'suspicous' and may indicate a poorly formed
+ regexp. Extended regular expression gurus: can this list be
+ reduced somewhat?
+
+ [CF] Fixed bug in Windows smartd: Missing close of config file when
+ configuration is reloaded by smartd daemon.
+
+ [CF] Windows smartd: Added mail warning feature using the "Blat"
+ (http://blat.sourceforge.net/) mailer as a default.

+ QUANTUM FIREBALL ST3.2A
+
+ [BA] smartd/smarctl now print build HOST/OS information as part
+ of startup slogan. This should make it slightly easier to
+ read bug reports from users.
+
+ [RZ] Fixed the DEVICESCAN to do what it was supposed to do - give
+ error message unless scanning is in progress.
+
+ [BA] Update documentation to describe 3ware character devices. Better
+ error detection for missing/malfunctioning devices behind 3ware
+ controllers. Now pack 3ware ioctl structures explicitly.
+
+ [BA] For ATA devices that support LBA mode, print capacity as part
+ of smartctl --info
+
+ [RZ] Made DEVICESCAN quiet about non-existing devices unless debug
+ is on.
+
+ [DG] treat "unit attention" SCSI warning as try again in some contexts
+ (test unit ready and mode sense)
+
+ [BA] on drives that store max/min rather than min/max, get order
+ correct in printing temp.
+
+ [BA] fixed typo in 'smartctl -h' output. Thanks to Gabor Z. Papp.
+
+ [BA] linux: clean-up to 3ware/AMCC support; dynamically create
+ or fix /dev/tw[ae][0-15] device node entries if they don't
+ exist or are incorrect. One can now use the character devices
+ /dev/twe[0-15] OR /dev/sd? for 3ware 6000/7000/8000 series
+ cards. One must use /dev/twa[0-15] for 3ware 9000 series cards.
+ Note that selective self-tests now work via /dev/tw[ae] devices.
+ Next step: documentation.
+
+ [BA] linux: experimental "support" for 3ware/AMCC 9000 series
+ controllers that use the 3w-9xxx driver. This will be in a
+ state of flux for a few days. Note that this requires the
+ character interface /dev/twa[0-15].
+
+ [DG] linux: extend general SCSI OS interface to use the SG_IO ioctl. If
+ not available, use the older SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND ioctl.
+

+ script. Thanks to Stuart Swales.
+
+smartmontools 5.32
+
+ [BA] Update link to revised/updated IBM Deskstar Firmware

+ with GetASPI32SupportInfo(). Thanks to Nikolai SAOUKH for pointing
+ this out and providing a patch.
+
+ [BA] modified smartd init script to work on whitebox (thanks to
+ Michael Falzon)
+
+ [BA] removed (reverted) additional Attribute definitions from
+ http://smart.friko.pl/attributes.php. All (or most?) of these
+ appear to be return code values for the WD Digital Life Guard Utility.
+
+ [PW] Added Seagate Medalist 17242, 13032, 10232, 8422, and 4312 to
+ knowndrives table. Added missing Seagate U Series 5 drives.

+ open error.
+
+ [BA] added additional Attribute definitions from
+ http://smart.friko.pl/attributes.php
+
+ [BA] smartd: reworked TimeZone bug workaround so it is only invoked
+ for glibc. Note: this might not be right -- a similar bug may
+ exist in other platform's libcs.
+
+ [DG] SCSI smartmontools documentation updated [2004/5/6]. See:
+ http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/smartmontools_scsi.html
+
+ [CF] Windows: Fixed reset of TZ=GMT in glibc timezone bug workaround.
+
+smartmontools 5.31
+

+ (smartctl) into --attributes section (was in --info section).
+
+ [GG] change default installation location to /usr/local
+
+ [CF] Cygwin smartd: Fixed crash on access of SCSI devices after fork().
+
+ [PW] Added TOSHIBA MK4018GAS and the following Maxtor drive families
+ to knowndrives table: DiamondMax D540X-4G, Fireball 541DX,

+ MHTxxxxAT family, and IBM Deskstar 25GP and 22GXP families to
+ knowndrives table.
+
+ [CF] Cygwin smartd: Added workaround for missing SIGQUIT via keyboard:
+ To exit smartd in debug mode, type CONTROL-C twice.
+
+ [BA] smartctl: printing of the selective self-test log is now
+ controlled by a new option: -l selective
+
+ [BA] Added entries for Samsung firmware versions -25 to -39 based
+ on latest info about firmware bug fixes.
+
+ [PW] Added Seagate U Series X family, Seagate U8 family, and Seagate
+ Medalist 8641 family to knowndrives table.
+
+ [CF] smartd: Added exit values 5/6 for missing/unreadable config file.
+
+ [BA] smartd: now monitor the Current Pending Sector count (Attribute 197)
+ and the Offline Pending Sector Count (Attribute 198). Log a
+ warning (and send an email, if so configured) if the raw count
+ is nonzero. These are controlled by new Directives: -C and -U.
+ Currently they are enabled by default.
+
+ [CF] Added option -c FILE, --configfile=FILE to smartd to specify
+ an alternate configuration FILE or '-' for standard input.
+
+ [KS] configure.in now searches for -lnsl and -lsocket for Solaris.
+
+ [CF] Win32/native smartd: Added thread to combine several syslog output
+ lines into one single event log entry.
+
+ [CF] Win32 smartd: Added DEVICESCAN for SCSI/ASPI devices.
+
+ [GG] Use gethostbyname() the get the DNS domain since getdomainname()
+ returns the NIS domain when sending mails from smartd.
+
+ [GG] smartd.init.in: pass smartd_opts to smartd on startup, read distribution
+ specific configuration files if found
+
+ [SS] smartctl: added NetBSD support for Selective Self-tests.
+
+ [BA] smartd.conf example configuration file now has all examples
+ commented out except for 'DEVICESCAN'.
+
+ [CF] Win32/native smartd: Added ability to display warning "emails"
+ as message box by "-m msgbox" directive. With "-m sysmsgbox",
+ a system modal (always on top) message box is shown.
+
+ [BA] smartctl: printing of self-test log for disks that support
+ Selective self-testing now shows the status of the (optional)
+ read-scan after the selective self test. Also, changed format
+ in printing self-test log to print failing LBA in base 10 not
+ base 16 (more compatible with kernel error messages). Also,
+ in printing SMART error log, print timestamps in format
+ days+hours+minutes+seconds.
+
+ [CF] Win32 smartd: Added ability to log to stdout/stderr
+ (-l local1/2). Toggling debug console still works
+ if stdout is redirected.
+
+ [BA] smartctl: selective self-test log, print current status
+ in a more detailed way. Allow writing of selective self-test
+ log provided that no other self-test is underway.
+
+ [BA] Linux: eliminated dependency on kernel tree hdreg.h.
+
+ [BA] smartctl: -l selftest option now prints Selective self-test
+ log in addition to the normal self-test log.
+ Added additional options (-t pending, -t afterselect) to
+ control remaining Selective Self-test capabilities. Tested
+ with several Maxtor disks. Modified error message printing
+ so that munged option messages print at the end not the
+ start of output.
+
+ [CF] Added daemon support to Win32 native version of smartd.
+ The daemon can be controlled by commands similar to initd
+ scripts: "smartd status|stop|reload|restart|sigusr1|sigusr2".
+
+ [CF] Added minor support for option "-l local[0-7]" to Win32 native
+ (not Cygwin) version of smartd. If specified, the log output
+ is written to file "./smartd[1-7]?.log" instead of event log.
+
+ [BA] Added Selective Self-test to smartctl (-t selective,M-N).
+ Currently only supported under Linux; Solaris, NetBSD, FreeBSD
+ and Windows developers must add WRITE LOG functionality to
+ os_*.c
+
+ [BA] Added workaround for an annoying glibc bug: if you change
+ timezones, (eg, flying with a laptop from USA to Europe)
+ localtime() does not notice this in a running
+ executable, so time that appears in the system log (syslog!)
+ will be incorrect. See
+ http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=48184
+ for additional examples of this bug.
+
+ [DG] Set explicit timeouts for SCSI commands (most default to 6 seconds).
+ Previously a 0 second timeout was meant to be interpreted as a
+ default timeout but the FreeBSD port had a problem in this area.
+

+
+ [BA] Fixed un-thread-safe exit signal handler pointed out
+ by CF.
+
+ [BA] Changed configure script to eliminate warnings under
+ Solaris from sys/int_type.h conflicts with int64.h
+ Added header files for umask to smartd.c.
+
+ [BA] Man page format change from Werner LEMBERG. " " changed to \&
+
+ [CF] Added os_win32/syslogevt.* event message file tool for Win32
+ smartd (native+cygwin). May also be useful for other cygwin
+ programs writing to syslog().
+
+ [CF] Added Win32 version of smartd
+
+ [CF] Merged RELEASE_5_26_WIN32_BRANCH
+
+ [BA] Made some changes to man page markup suggested by
+ Richard Verhoeven to work around bugs in man2html.
+ Tested not to break anything under Linux and Solaris.
+
+ [CF] Moved PrintOut() from utility.c to smart{ctl,d}.c to avoid
+ syslog() output of smartctl.
+
+ [BA] Grew worried that some time-zone names could be very long (eg,
+ Mitteleuropaische Zeit) and put date string lengths into a
+ single macro in utility.c
+
+ [EM] Updated os_freebsd.c to handle older versions of FreeBSD in a
+ more appropriate/obvious fashion.
+
+ [EM] Modified autogen.sh as FreeBSD installs automake 1.7 as
+ 'automake17' and NOT 'automake-1.7'
+
+smartmontools 5.30
+
+ [PW] Added QUANTUM FIREBALLlct15 30, QUANTUM FIREBALLlct20 40, and
+ Maxtor 6Y060P0 (DiamondMax Plus 9 60GB) to knowndrives table.
+
+ [PW] Added Maxtor MaXLine II family to knowndrives table (thanks to
+ Brett Russ for submitting the patch).
+
+ [BA] Added remaining read/write commands to detailed list of
+ error log commands that have text descriptions of problem
+ printed. For commands that support it, print number of failed
+ sectors at problem LBA.
+
+ [BA] Made SuSE section of smartd init script more SuSE 9 compatible.
+ Thanks to Hans-Peter Jansen.
+
+ [CF] Windows smartd: Added IDE/ATA device scan
+ Added windows device names to smartctl.8.in, smartd.8.in
+
+ [BA] smartctl/smartd: user-provided '-F samsung' and '-F samsung2'
+ command line options/Directives did NOT over-ride preset values
+ unless user specified '-P ignore'. Now they will always over-ride
+ preset values from the database.
+
+ [BA] Added error decoding for a few more READ and WRITE commands.
+
+ [PW] Added Maxtor MaXLine Plus II, Western Digital Caviar SE (Serial ATA)
+ series, Hitachi Deskstar 7K250 series, and Ultra ATA 66 models of
+ the Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 40 series to knowndrives table.
+
+ [BA] Added Maxtor Diamondmax 250 GB drives to database. Note that
+ these model numbers are not listed in Maxtor documentation, but
+ they exist.
+
+ [BA] Removed the 'contact developers' phrase from the Samsung disk
+ warning messages.
+
+ [PW] Added TOSHIBA MK2017GAP, IBM Deskstar 14GXP and 16GP series,
+ Fujitsu MPC series, Seagate Barracuda ATA III family, and missing
+ Seagate Barracuda U Series drives to knowndrives table
+
+ [BA] smartd: wrong loglevel for message: Configuration file
+ /etc/smartd.conf parsed. Changed to LOG_INFO from LOG_CRIT.
+ Thanks to Emmanuel CHANTREAU for the report.
+
+ [CF] Checked in development version of windows code base.
+
+smartmontools 5.29 (note: there was NO 5.28 release)
+
+ [BA] smartd: configure script did not set correct directory to search for
+ smartd.conf based on --prefix argument to ./configure. Thanks to
+ GG for identifying the problem and fix.
+
+ [BA] make clean now removes man pages (generated from *.in) files as well
+ as object files.
+
+ [EM] Correct copying of sense data in FreeBSD SCSI implementation. Thanks
+ to Sergey Svishchev for noticing the bug.
+
+ [BA] On solaris, wrong warning message if no ATA support. Warning message
+ concerns 3ware controller, not ATA.
+
+ [SS] Added SCSI support for NetBSD.
+
+ [BA] on big-endian linux machines, fixed interpretation of HDIO_GET_IDENTITY
+ to correctly identify ATAPI bit (was byte swapped). This should
+ eliminate some SYSLOG noise if user queries a packet device (eg, CD
+ ROM or DVD reader).
+
+ [PW] Removed warning for IBM Deskstar 40GV & 75GXP series drives with
+ A5AA/A6AA firmware. Thanks to Gerald Schnabel.
+
+ [PW] Added Toshiba TOS MK3019GAXB SUN30G to knowndrives table
+
+ [PW] Added Western Digital Caviar AC12500, AC24300, AC25100, AC36400,
+ and AC38400 to knowndrives table
+
+ [BA] When printing ATA error log, print the LBA at which READ
+ or WRITE commands failed.
+
+ [BA] Changed syntax of error message in smartctl
+
+ [BA] Added versioning info (-V options to smartd/smartctl) for
+ Solaris ATA module.
+
+smartmontools 5.27
+
+ [KS] Added ATA/IDE support for Solaris/SPARC (ATA/IDE not yet for
+ Solaris/x86).
+
+ [BA] 3ware controllers: documented that one can monitor any of the
+ physical disks from any of the 3ware /dev/sd? logical devices.
+ Better warnings if querying a disk that does not exist.
+
+ [PW] Added Hitachi Travelstar DK23DA series, Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 40
+ series, Western Digital Caviar WDxxxAA, WDxxxBA, and WDxxxAB series
+ to knowndrives table
+
+ [BA] missing 'pragma pack' on ATA IDENTIFY DEVICE structure may have
+ caused odd or incorrect results on 64-bit machines.
+
+ [BA] smartctl/smartd allow inspection of self-test and error logs even
+ if disk firmware claims that these don't exist. This is needed
+ for some Maxtor disks whose firmware does not indicate log support
+ even though the disk DOES support it.
+
+ [BA] Improved porting instructions and documentation in os_generic.c
+
+ [PW] Add Western Digital Caviar WD136AA and SAMSUNG SP40A2H (RR100-07
+ firmware) to knowndrives table.
+
+ [EM] FreeBSD: remove extra definition of FreeNonZero
+
+ [BA] smartctl: the -q silent option was printing output for some
+ error conditions. Fixed. Will rename relevant variables to help
+ avoid these errors in the future.
+
+ [SS] NetBSD port added.
+
+ [BA] more sensible error messages for devfs and devfs-like systems.
+ Instead of saying that the DIRECTORY does not exist, say that
+ the DEVICE does not exist.
+
+ [BA] smartd: added -n Directive, to prevent disk spin-up depending
+ upon the power mode (SLEEP, STANDBY, or IDLE).
+
+ [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax 20 VL series, Fujitsu MPF series,
+ Maxtor DiamondMax 36 series, Maxtor DiamondMax 4320 series, and
+ Maxtor DiamondMax 536DX series to knowndrives table.
+
+ [BA] many warning messages now give the file name AND VERSION
+
+ [BA] smartd: when the user provides multiple address recipients
+ to the '-m' Directive in a comma-delineated list, the commas
+ are stripped out before passing the list of addresses to the
+ mailer program. (Thanks to Calin A. Culianu for pointing this out
+ and providing a patch.)
+
+ [BA] smartd: when the '-M exec path' Directive is used, any stdout OR
+ stderr output from the executable "path" is assumed to indicate a
+ problem, and is echoed to SYSLOG.
+
+ [BA] Added all missing IBM/Hitachi Deskstar 180GXP models to knowndrives
+ table.
+
+ [PW] Added some missing IBM/Hitachi Deskstar 120GXP models to knowndrives
+ table.
+
+ [PW] Added IBM Travelstar 14GS to knowndrives table.
+
+ [PW] Modified knowndrives table to match entire Hitachi Travelstar
+ DK23BA and DK23EA series of drives (thanks to Norikatsu Shigemura
+ for submitting the patch).
+
+ [PW] Added some missing Fujitsu MPE series drives to knowndrives table.
+
+ [PW] Added TOSHIBA MK4019GAX, TOSHIBA MK6409MAV, and QUANTUM
+ FIREBALLlct15 20 to knowndrives table.
+
+ [EM] Fixup example command output for FreeBSD
+
+ [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax 80 family to knowndrives table.
+
+ [EM] Catch up FreeBSD code to switch PROJECTHOME to PACKAGE_HOMEPAGE
+ macros.
+
+ [BA] smartd: now watches stdout/stderr when trying to run mail, mailx
+ or mail warning script, and reports any output to SYSLOG. This
+ gives a clearer error message if something is wrong.
+
+ [BA] smartd: Solaris init script modified to accommodate grep that
+ lacks '-q' quiet option. Also check for running process to kill
+ on stop.
+
+ [PW] Added some missing Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 and 7200.7 Plus drives
+ to knowndrives table.
+
+ [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 60 family and Seagate U Series 5 20413
+ to knowndrives table.
+
+ [BA] smartd: under Solaris, made default mailer be 'mailx' not
+ 'mail', since Solaris 'mail' does not accept a '-s' argument.
+ A workaround for Solaris users of earlier versions is to
+ have '-M exec /bin/mailx' in their smartd.conf config file.
+
+ [DG] some SCSI controllers don't like odd length transfers so make
+ sure LOG SENSE transfers are rounded up to an even number when
+ and odd length is reported (i.e. there is a double fetch, the
+ first to find the length, the second gets the data)
+
+ [BA] smartd man pages: under Solaris, correct section numbers in the
+ 'See also' section.
+
+ [KS/BA] smartd man page: describe how to set Solaris syslog.conf
+ file to catch all messages. Give correct Solaris SYSLOG default
+ path /var/adm/messages in man pages.
+
+ [BA] smartd: incorporated Debian startup script submitted by user.
+
+ [BA] smartctl: modified printing of self-test log entry number. Seagate
+ firmware can leave 'holes' in the self-test log while a test is
+ actually running. We now print entry numbers consistently in this
+ case, not assuming that entries are contiguous.
+
+ [PW] Added QUANTUM FIREBALL CX10.2A and Western Digital Caviar AC23200L
+ to knowndrives table.
+
+ [PW] Added QUANTUM FIREBALLlct20 20 to knowndrives table.
+
+ [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax Plus D740X family to knowndrives table.
+
+ [PW] Added IBM Travelstar 32GH, 30GT, and 20GN family to knowndrives
+ table.
+
+ [BA] Slackware init script modified to search for /etc/slackware-version
+ rather than /etc/slackware-release.
+
+ [PW] Added Seagate Barracuda ATA II family and TOSHIBA MK4019GAXB to
+ knowndrives table.
+
+ [GG] explain howto use autoreconf in autogen.sh
+
+ [KS] Makefile.am/configure.in: changed manual page sections for
+ Solaris.
+
+ [BA] smartd: reduced number of scheduled self-test messages if
+ test already run in current hour.
+
+ [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 8 family to knowndrives table.
+
+ [BA] linux: check for linux/hdreg.h. If it's there, use it. If
+ not, provide the necessary definitions ourselves.
+
+ [PW] Removed warning for IBM Deskstar 40GV & 75GXP series drives
+ with TXAOA5AA firmware
+
+ [PW] Added IBM Travelstar 25GS, 18GT, and 12GN family to knowndrives
+ table.
+
+ [PW] Added IBM/Hitachi Travelstar 60GH & 40GN family to knowndrives
+ table.
+
+ [BA] smartd: made '-s' Directive more efficient. Now store
+ compiled regex, and re-use. If device lacks certain self-test
+ capabilities, track it and don't try again.
+
+ [BA] smartd: made memory allocation for device lists completely
+ dynamic (eliminating compile-time maximum length constants).
+
+ [PW] Removed warning for SAMSUNG SP0802N with TK100-23 firmware
+
+ [PW] Added Seagate Barracuda ATA IV family to knowndrives table.
+
+ [BA] smartd: reduce per-device memory footprint by making
+ mail-warning info dynamically allocated. Also remove
+ potential memory leak if use has -m Directive twice and
+ keeps reloading the config file (highly unlikely this would
+ ever be noticed!)
+
+ [DG] smartd: added SCSI scheduled self-tests (Background
+ short or extended).
+
+ [BA] smartd: can now run scheduled offline immediate and
+ self-tests. See man page and -s Directive for details.
+
+ [GG] don't include manpages in make-dist-tarball.
+
+ [BA] smartctl: on-line examples given with -h are now correct
+ for solaris and linux, but wrong for freebsd. Ed?
+
+ [BA] smartd: man page now explains device scanning for solaris as
+ well as linux and freebsd.
+
+ [BA] smartd/smartctl: man pages now report correct CVS tag release
+ date, and executables '-V' options reports more build info.
+
+smartmontools 5.26
+
+ [BA] Improved user messages that appear from 'make install'
+
+ [PW] Removed warning for SAMSUNG SP1213N with firmware TL100-23
+
+ [BA] incorporated SuSE init script from user.
+
+ [DG] if SCSI device is read only, then open it read only.
+
+ [BA] when compiled on non-supported system (NOT linux, freebsd or solaris) then
+ the run-time error messages now clearly say 'your system is not supported'
+ and give clear directions.
+
+ [BA] ./configure script now works correctly on SuSE linux boxes
+
+ [BA] minor improvements to man pages
+
+ [BA] simplified detection of packet (ATAPI, CD) devices.
+
+ [BA] init script (redhat, mandrake, yellowdog) now uses correct
+ strings for translation and is slightly more standard.
+
+ [DG] smartctl: output scsi Seagate vendor pages for disks (not tapes)
+
+smartmontools 5.25
+
+Note: there was no '5.24' release. From this point on, even numbered
+releases will be 'stable' ones and odd numbered releases will be
+unstable/testing/development ones.
+
+ [DG] smartd/smartctl: changed scsiClearControlGLTSD() to
+ scsiSetControlGLTSD() with an 'enabled' argument so '-S on'
+ and '-S off' work for SCSI devices (if changing GLTSD supported).
+
+ [BA] smartd/smartctl: wired in scsiClearControlGLTSD(). Could still
+ use a corresponding Set function. Left stubs for this purpose.
+
+ [DG] scsicmds: added scsiClearControlGLTSD() [still to be wired in]
+
+ [BA] smartctl: make SCSI -T options behave the same way as the
+ ATA ones.
+
+ [DG] smartctl: output scsi transport protocol if available
+
+ [DG] scsi: stop device scan in smartd and smartctl if badly formed
+ mode response [heuristic to filter out USB devices before we
+ (potentially) lock them up].
+
+ [BA] smartd: deviceclose()->CloseDevice(). Got rid of SCSIDEVELOPMENT
+ macro-enabled code. Added -W to list of gcc specific options to
+ always enable. Made code clean for -W warnings.
+
+ [PW] Added Maxtor DiamondMax VL 30 family to knowndrives table.
+
+ [DG] scsi: add warning (when '-l error' active) if Control mode page
+ GLTSD bit is set (global disable of saving log counters)
+
+ [DG] scsi: remember mode sense cmd length. Output trip temperature
+ from IE lpage (IBM extension) when unavailable from temp lpage.
+
+ [BA] smartd: for both SCSI and ATA now warns user if either
+ the number of self-test errors OR timestamp of most
+ recent self-test error have increased.
+
+ [DG] smartctl: output Seagate scsi Cache and Factory log pages (if
+ available) when vendor attributes chosen
+
+ [DG] smartd: add scsiCountFailedSelfTests() function.
+
+ [DG] Do more sanity checking of scsi log page responses.
+
+ [BA] smartd: now warns user if number of self-test errors has
+ increased for SCSI devices.
+
+ [BA] smartd: warn user if number of ATA self-test errors increases
+ (as before) OR if hour time stamp of most recent self-test
+ error changes.
+
+ [DG] More checks for well formed mode page responses. This has the side
+ effect of stopping scans on bad SCSI implementations (e.g. some
+ USB disks) prior to sending commands (typically log sense) that
+ locks them up.
+
+ [PW] Added Western Digital Caviar family and Caviar SE family to
+ knowndrives table.
+
+ [BA] smartd: added -l daemon (which is the default value if -l
+ is not used).
+
+ [PW] Added Seagate Barracuda ATA V family to knowndrives table.
+
+ [BA] smartd: added additional command line argument -l FACILITY
+ or --logfacility FACILITY. This can be used to redirect
+ messages from smartd to a different file than the one used
+ by other system daemons.
+
+ [PW] Added Seagate Barracuda 7200.7, Western Digital Protege WD400EB,
+ and Western Digital Caviar AC38400 to knowndrives table.
+
+ [BA] smartd: scanning should now also work correctly for
+ devfs WITHOUT traditional links /dev/hd[a-t] or /dev/sd[a-z].
+
+ [PW] Added Maxtor 4W040H3, Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 Plus,
+ IBM Deskstar 120GXP (40GB), Seagate U Series 20410,
+ Fujitsu MHM2100AT, MHL2300AT, MHM2150AT, and IBM-DARA-212000
+ to knowndrives table.
+
+ [PW] Added remaining Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 9 models to knowndrives
+ table.
+
+ [EM] smartd: If no matches found, then return 0, rather than an error
+ indication, as it just means no devices of the given type exist.
+ Adjust FreeBSD scan code to mirror Linux version.
+
+ [BA] smartd: made device scan code simpler and more robust. If
+ too many devices detected, warn user but scan as many
+ as possible. If error in scanning, warn user but don't
+ die right away.
+
+ [EM] smartd: To keep as consistent as possible, migrate FreeBSD
+ devicescan code to also use glob(3). Also verified clean
+ compile on a 4.7 FreeBSD system.
+
+ [BA] smartd: Modified device scan code to use glob(3). Previously
+ it appeared to have trouble when scanning devices on an XFS
+ file system, and used non-public interface to directory
+ entries. Problems were also reported when /dev/ was on an
+ ext2/3 file system, but there was a JFS partition on the same
+ disk.
+
+ [BA] Clearer error messages when device scanning finds no suitable
+ devices.
+
+ [EM] FreeBSD: Fixup code to allow for proper compilation under
+ -STABLE branch.
+
+smartmontools 5.23
+
+ [BA] smartd: didn't close file descriptors of ATA packet devices
+ that are scanned. Fixed.
+
+ [BA] Added reload/report targets to the smartmontools init script.
+ reload: reloads config file
+ report: send SIGUSR1 to check devices now
+
+smartmontools 5.22
+
+ [EM] Fix compile issues for FreeBSD < 5-CURRENT.
+
+ [PW] Added Fujitsu MHM2200AT to knowndrives table.
+
+ [BA] To help catch bugs, clear ATA error structures before all
+ ioctl calls. Disable code that attempted to time-out on SCSI
+ devices when they hung (doesn't work).
+
+ [BA] Documented STATUS/ERROR flags added by [PW] below.
+
+ [BA] Improved algorithm to recognize ATA packet devices. Should
+ no longer generate SYSLOG kernel noise when user tries either
+ smartd or smartctl on packet device (CD-ROM or DVD). Clearer
+ warning messages from smartd when scanning ATA packet device.
+
+ [PW] Added TOSHIBA MK4025GAS to knowndrives table.
+
+ [PW] Added a textual interpretation of the status and error registers
+ in the SMART error log (ATA). The interpretation is
+ command-dependent and currently only eight commands are supported
+ (those which produced errors in the error logs that I happen to
+ have seen).
+
+ [BA] added memory allocation tracking to solaris code.
+ Fixed solaris signal handling (reset handler to default
+ after first call to handler) by using sigset. Added
+ HAVE_SIGSET to configure.in
+
+ [CD] solaris port: added SCSI functionality to solaris
+ stubs.
+
+ [BA] smartd: attempt to address bug report about smartd
+ hanging on USB devices when scanning:
+ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=107615
+ Set a timeout of SCSITIMEOUT (nominally 7 seconds) before
+ giving up.
+
+ [EM] smartd: DEVICESCAN will follow links in a devfs filesystem and
+ make sure the end point is a disc. Update documentation, added
+ note about FreeBSD scanning
+
+ [BA] smartd: DEVICESCAN also looks for block devices in
+ /dev. Updated documentation. Now scans for up to
+ 20 ATA devices /dev/hda-t rather than previous 12
+ /dev/hda-l.
+
+ [EM] smartd: mirror the FreeBSD DEVICESCAN logic for Linux,
+ so that smartd now scans only devices found in /dev/. Also,
+ make utility memory functions take a line number and file so
+ that we report errors with the correct location.
+
+ [GG] add a note about Debian bug #208964 to WARNINGS.
+
+ [BA] smartctl: -T verypermissive option broken. Use
+ -T verpermissive until the next release, please.
+
+ [BA] Syntax mods so that code also compiles on Solaris using
+ Sun Workshop compiler. Need -xmemalign 1i -xCC flags
+ for cc.
+
+smartmontools 5.21
+
+ [DK] Changed configure.in so -Wall is only included if gcc
+ is used (this is a gcc specific flag) and -fsignedchar
+ is not used at all (this is a gcc specific compiler
+ flag).
+
+ [BA] Modifications so that code now compiles under solaris. Now
+ all that's needed (:-) is to fill in os_solaris.[hc]. Added
+ os_generic.[hc] as guide to future ports. Fixed -D option
+ of smartd (no file name). Modified -h opt of smartd/smartctl
+ to work properly with solaris getopt().
+
+ [EM] Update MAN pages with notes that 3ware drives are NOT supported
+ under FreeBSD. Cleanup FreeBSD warning message handling.
+
+ [EM] FreeBSD only: Fix first user found bug....I guess I was making
+ the wrong assumption on how to convert ATA devnames to
+ channel/unit numbers.
+
+ [EM] Allow for option --enable-sample to append '.sample' to installed
+ smartd.conf and rc script files. Also, let rc script shell setting
+ be determined by configure
+
+ [EM] Minor autoconf update to include -lcam for FreeBSD
+
+ [EM] Add conditional logic to allow FreeBSD to compile pre-ATAng.
+ -- note, not tested
+ Add some documentation to INSTALL for FreeBSD.
+
+ [EM] Implement SCSI CAM support for FreeBSD. NOTE: I am not an expert
+ in the use of CAM. It seems to work for me, but I may be doing
+ something horribly wrong, so please exercise caution.
+
+ [EM] Switch over to using 'atexit' rather than 'on_exit' routine. This also
+ meant we needed to save the exit status elsewhere so our 'Goodbye'
+ routine could examine it.
+
+ [EM] Move the DEVICESCAN code to os specific files. Also moved some of the
+ smartd Memory functions to utility.c to make available to smartctl.
+
+ [EM] Code janitor work on os_freebsd.c.
+
+ [EM] Added os_freebsd.[hc] code. Additional code janitor
+ work.
+
+ [BA] Code janitor working, moving OS dependent code into
+ os_linux.[hc].
+
+ [GG] conditionally compile os_{freebsd,linux}.o depending on
+ host architecture
+
+ [PW] Print estimated completion time for tests
+
+ [BA] Added -F samsung2 flag to correct firmware byte swap.
+ All samsung drives with *-23 firmware revision string.
+
+smartmontools 5.20
+
+ [GG] Fixed broken Makefile.am (zero length smartd.conf.5
+ was being created), fix broken uninstall/distcheck targets
+
+ [FM] Improved Slackware init script added to /etc/smartd.initd
+
+smartmontools 5.19 [NOTE CHANGE OF RELEASE NUMBERING]
+
+ [BA] smartctl: added '-T verypermissive' option which is
+ equivalent to giving '-T permissive' many times.
+
+ [BA] Try harder to identify from IDENTIFY DEVICE structure
+ if SMART supported/enabled. smartd now does a more
+ thorough job of trying to assess this before sending
+ a SMART status command to find out for sure.
+
+ [BA] smartctl: it's now possible to override the program's
+ guess of the device type (ATA or SCSI) with -d option.
+
+ [BA] try hard to avoid sending IDENTIFY DEVICE to packet
+ devices (CDROMS). They can't do SMART, and this generates
+ annoying syslog messages. At the same time, identify type
+ of Packet device.
+
+ [BA] smartctl: Can now use permissive option more
+ than once, to control how far to go before giving up.
+
+ [BA] smartd: if user asked to monitor either error or self-test
+ logs (-l error or -l selftest) WITHOUT monitoring any of the
+ Attribute values, code will SEGV. For 5.1-18 and earlier,
+ a good workaround is to enable Auto offline (-o on).
+
+ [BA] smartctl: If enable auto offline command given, update auto
+ offline status before printing capabilities.
+
+ [GG] Make autotools build the default, remove autotools.diff
+
+ [GG] Add auto{conf,make} support, not enabled by default.
+
+ [BA] Eliminated #include <linux/hdreg.h> from code. This
+ should simplify porting to solaris, FreeBSD, etc. The
+ only linux-specific code is now isolated to three routines,
+ one for SCSI, one for Escalade, one for ATA.
+
+smartmontools 5.1-18
+
+ [BA] smartd: fixed serious bug - Attributes not monitored unless
+ user told smartd to ignore at least one of them!
+
+smartmontools 5.1-17
+
+ [BA] Default runlevels for smartd changed from 3 and 5 to
+ 2, 3, 4, and 5.
+
+ [BA] Removed as much dynamic memory allocation as possible from
+ configuration file parsing. Reloading config file, even in
+ presence of syntax errors etc. should not cause memory leaks.
+
+ [PW] It is no longer permissible for the integer part (if any) of
+ arguments to --report and --device to be followed by non-digits.
+ For example, the "foo" in --report=ioctl,2foo was previously
+ ignored, but now causes an error.
+
+ [BA] smartd: added -q/--quit command line option to specify
+ under what circumstances smartd should exit. The old
+ -c/--checkonce option is now obsoleted by this more
+ general-purpose option.
+
+ [BA] smartd now responds to a HUP signal by re-reading its
+ configuration file /etc/smartd.conf. If there are
+ errors in this file, then the configuration file is
+ ignored and smartd continues to monitor the devices that
+ it was monitoring prior to receiving the HUP signal.
+
+ [BA] Now correctly get SMART status from disks behind 3ware
+ controllers, thanks to Adam Radford. Need 3w-xxxx driver
+ version 1.02.00.037 or later. Previously the smartmontools
+ SMART status always returned "OK" for 3ware controllers.
+
+ [BA] Additional work on dynamic memory allocation/deallocation.
+ This should have no effect on smartctl, but clears that way
+ for smartd to dynamically add and remove entries. It should
+ also now be easier to modify smartd to re-read its config
+ file on HUP (which is easy) without leaking memory (which is
+ harder). The philosophy is that memory for data structures in
+ smartd is now allocated only on demand, the first time it
+ is needed.
+
+ [BA] smartd: finished cleanup. Now use create/rm functions for
+ cfgentries and dynamic memory allocation almost everywhere.
+ Philosophy: aggresively try and provoke SEGV to help find
+ bad code.
+
+ [BA] Added SAMSUNG SV0412H to knowndrives table.
+
+ [BA] smartd: if DEVICESCAN used then knowndrives table might not set
+ the -v attributes correctly -- may have been the same for all
+ the drives. Cleaned up some data structures and memory
+ allocation to try and ensure segvs if such problems are
+ introduced again.
+
+ [BA] Now allow -S on and -o on for the 3ware device type. For these
+ commands to be passed through, the stock 3ware 3w-xxxx driver
+ must be patched (8 lines). I'll post a patch on the smartmontools
+ home page after it's been tested by a few other people and 3ware
+ have had a chance to look it over.
+
+smartmontools-5.1-16
+
+ [BA] smartd - can now monitor ATA drives behind 3ware controllers.
+
+ [BA] smartd - changed some FATAL out of memory error messages from
+ syslog level LOG_INFO to LOG_CRIT.
+
+ [BA] smartctl - added code to look at ATA drives behind 3ware RAID
+ controllers using the 3w-xxxx driver. Note that for technical
+ reasons related to the 3w-xxxx driver, the "Enable Autosave",
+ "Enable Automatic Offline" commands are not implemented.
+ I will add this to smartd shortly.
+
+ [BA] smartd - modified sleep loop, so that smartd no longer comes
+ on the run queue every second. Instead, unless interrupted,
+ it sleeps until the next polling time, when it wakes up. Now
+ smartd also tries to wake up at exactly the right
+ intervals (nominally 30 min) even if the user has been sending
+ signals to it.
+
+ [GG] add Fujitsu MHN2300AT to vendoropts_9_seconds.
+
+ [EB] Fujitsu change in knowndrives ... match the whole MPD and
+ MPE series for vendoropts_9_seconds.
+
+ [BA] smartd bug, might cause segv if a device can not be opened. Was
+ due to missing comma in char* list. Consequence is that email
+ failure messages might have had the wrong Subject: heading for
+ errorcount, FAILEDhealthcheck, FAILEDreadsmartdata, FAILEDreadsmarterrorlog,
+ FAILEDreadsmartsefltestlog, FAILEDopendevice were all displaced by
+ one. And FAILEDopendevice might have caused a segv if -m was being
+ used as a smartd Directive.
+
+smartmontools-5.1-15
+
+ [BA] Cleaned up smartmontools.spec so that upgrading, removing
+ and other such operations correctly preserve running behavior
+ and booting behavior of smartd.
+
+ [BA] Improved formatting of ATA Error Log printout, and added
+ listing of names of commands that caused the error. Added
+ obsolete ATA-4 SMART feature commands to table, along with
+ obsolete SFF-8035i SMART feature command.
+
+ [PW] Added atacmdnames.[hc], which turn command register &
+ feature register pairs into ATA command names.
+
+ [BA] Added conveyance self-test. Some code added for selective
+ self-tests, but #ifdefed out.
+
+ [BA] Modified smartd exit status and log levels. If smartd is
+ "cleanly" terminated, for example with SIGTERM, then its
+ exit messages are now logged at LOG_INFO not LOG_CRIT
+
+ [BA] Added Attribute IDs (Fujitsu) 0xCA - 0xCE. This is decimal
+ 202-206. Added -v switches for interpretation of Attributes
+ 192, 198 and 201.
+
+ [BA] Made smartmontools work with any endian order machine for:
+ - SMART selftest log
+ - SMART ATA error log
+ - SMART Attributes values
+ - SMART Attributes thesholds
+ - IDENTIFY DEVICE information
+ - LOG DIRECTORY
+ Smartmontools is now free of endian bias and works correctly
+ on both little- and big-endian hardware. This has been tested by
+ three independent PPC users on a variety of ATA and SCSI hardware.
+
+ [DG] Check that certain SCSI command responses are well formed. If
+ IEC mode page response is not well formed exit smartctl. This
+ is to protect aacraid. smartd should ignore a aacraid device.
+
+smartmontools-5.1-14
+
+ [BA] smartctl: added column to -A output to show if Attributes are
+ updated only during off-line testing or also during normal
+ operation.
+
+smartmontools-5.1-13
+
+ [BA] smartd: attempt to enable/disable automatic offline testing even
+ if the disk appears not to support it. Now the same logic
+ as smartctl.
+
+ [BA] Added definition of Attribute 201, soft read error rate.
+
+ [BA] Added IBM/Hitachi IC35L120AVV207-1 (GXP-180) and corresponding
+ 8MB Cache GXP-120 to drive database.
+
+ [BA] smartd: if DEVICESCAN Directive used in smartd.conf, and
+ -I, -R or -r Directives used in conjunction with this, got
+ segv errors. Fixed by correcting memory allocation calls.
+
+ [BA] smartd: enable automatic offline testing was broken due
+ to cut-and-paste error that disabled it instead of
+ enabling it. Thanks to Maciej W. Rozycki for pointing
+ out the problem and solution.
+
+ [BA] Fixed "spelling" of some Attribute names to replace spaces
+ in names by underscores. (Fixed field width easier for awk
+ style parsing.)
+
+ [BA,GF] Added mods submitted by [GF] to support Attribute 193 being
+ load/unload cycles. Add -v 193,loadunload option, useful for
+ Hitachi drive DK23EA-30, and add this drive to knowndrive.c
+ Add meaning of attribute 250 : Read error retry rate
+
+smartmontools-5.1-12
+
+ [BA] Added another entry for Samsung drives to knowndrive table.
+
+ [DG] Refine SCSI log sense command to do a double fetch in most cases
+ (but not for the TapeAlert log page). Fix TapeAlert and Self Test
+ log page response truncation.
+
+ [PW] Added 'removable' argument to -d Directive for smartd. This indicates
+ that smartd should continue (rather than exit) if the device does not
+ appear to be present.
+
+ [BA] Modified smartmontools.spec [Man pages location] and
+ smartd.initd [Extra space kills chkconfig!] for Redhat 6.x
+ compatibility (thanks to Gerald Schnabel).
+
+smartmontools-5.1-11
+
+ [EB] Add another Fujitsu disk to knowndrives.c
+
+ [GG] match for scsi/ and ide/ in case of devfs to exclude false positives
+
+ [BA] If SCSI device listed in /etc/smartd.conf fails to open or do
+ SMART stuff correctly, or not enough space
+ to list all SCSI devices, fail with error unless
+ -DSCSIDEVELOPMENT set during compile-time.
+
+ [BA] Added automatic recognition of /dev/i* (example: /dev/ide/...)
+ as an ATA device.
+
+ [DG] Add "Device type: [disk | tape | medium changer | ...] line to
+ smartctl -i output for SCSI devices.
+
+ [PW] Fixed bug in smartd where test email would be sent regularly (for
+ example, daily if the user had specified -M daily) instead of just
+ once on startup.
+
+ [KM] More TapeAlert work. Added translations for media changer
+ alerts. TapeAlert support reported according to the log page
+ presence. ModeSense not attempted for non-ready tapes (all
+ drives do not support this after all). Get peripheral type from
+ Inquiry even if drive info is not printed. Add QUIETON()
+ QUIETOFF() to TapeAlert log check.
+
+ [BA] Stupid bug in atacmds.c minor_str[] affected ataVersionInfo().
+ Two missing commas meant that minor_str[] had two few elements,
+ leading to output like this:
+ Device Model: Maxtor 6Y120L0
+ Serial Number: Y40BF74E
+ Firmware Version: YAR41VW0
+ Device is: Not in smartctl database [for details use: -P showall]
+ ATA Version is: 7
+ ATA Standard is: 9,minutes
+ ^^^^^^^^^
+ Missing commas inserted.
+
+ [BA] Fixed smartd bug. On device registration, if ATA device did
+ not support SMART error or self-test logs but user had asked to
+ monitor them, an attempt would be made to read them anyway,
+ possibly generating "Drive Seek" errors. We now check that
+ the self-test and error logs are supported before trying to
+ access them the first time.
+
+ [GG/BA] Fixed bug where if SMART ATA error log not supported,
+ command was tried anyway. Changed some error printing to use
+ print handlers.
+
+ [GG] Makefile modifications to ease packaging
+
+ [DG] Did work for TapeAlerts (SCSI). Now can detect /dev/nst0 as a
+ SCSI device. Also open SCSI devices O_NONBLOCK so they don't
+ hang on open awaiting media. The ATA side should worry about
+ this also: during a DEVICESCAN a cd/dvd device without media
+ will hang. Added some TapeAlert code suggested by Kai Makisara.
+
+smartmontools-5.1-10
+
+ [PW] Extended the -F option/Directive to potentially fix other firmware
+ bugs in addition to the Samsung byte-order bug. Long option name is
+ now --firmwarebug and the option/Directive accepts an argument
+ indicating the type of firmware bug to fix.
+
+ [BA] Fixed a bug that prevented the enable automatic off-line
+ test feature from enabling. It also prevented the enable Attribute
+ autosave from working. See CVS entry for additional details.
+
+ [PW] Modified the -r/--report option (smartctl and smartd) to allow the
+ user to specify the debug level as a positive integer.
+
+ [BA] Added --log directory option to smartctl. If the disk
+ supports the general-purpose logging feature set (ATA-6/7)
+ then this option enables the Log Directory to be printed.
+ This Log Directory shows which device logs are available, and
+ their lengths in sectors.
+
+ [PW] Added -P/--presets option to smartctl and -P Directive to smartd.
+
+ [GG] Introduce different exit codes indicating the type of problem
+ encountered for smartd.
+
+ [DG] Add non-medium error count to '-l error' and extended self test
+ duration to '-l selftest'. Get scsi IEs and temperature changes
+ working in smartd. Step over various scsi disk problems rather
+ than abort smartd startup.
+
+ [DG] Support -l error for SCSI disks (and tapes). Output error counter
+ log pages.
+
+ [BA] Added -F/--fixbyteorder option to smartctl. This allows us to read
+ SMART data from some disks that have byte-reversed two- and four-
+ byte quantities in their SMART data structures.
+
+ [BA] Fixed serious bug: the -v options in smartd.conf were all put
+ together and used together, not drive-by-drive.
+
+ [PW] Added knowndrives.h and knowndrives.c. The knowndrives array
+ supersedes the drivewarnings array.
+
+ [GG] add {-p,--pidfile} option to smartd to write a PID file on
+ startup. Update the manpage accordingly.
+
+ [DG] Fix scsi smartd problem detecting SMART support. More cleaning
+ and fix (and rename) scsiTestUnitReady(). More scsi renaming.
+
+ [BA] Fixed smartd so that if a disk that is explictily listed is not
+ found, then smartd will exit with nonzero status BEFORE forking.
+ If a disk can't be registered, this will also be detected before
+ forking, so that init scripts can react correctly.
+
+ [BA] Replaced all linux-specific ioctl() calls in atacmds.c with
+ a generic handler smartcommandhandler(). Now the only routine
+ that needs to be implemented for a given OS is os_specific_handler().
+ Also implemented the --report ataioctl. This provides
+ two levels of reporting. Using the option once gives a summary
+ report of device IOCTL transactions. Using the option twice give
+ additional info (a printout of ALL device raw 512 byte SMART
+ data structures). This is useful for debugging.
+
+ [DG] more scsi cleanup. Output scsi device serial number (VPD page
+ 0x80) if available as part of '-i'. Implement '-t offline' as
+ default self test (only self test older disks support).
+
+ [BA] Changed crit to info in loglevel of smartd complaint to syslog
+ if DEVICESCAN enabled and device not found.
+
+ [BA] Added -v 194,10xCelsius option/Directive. Raw Attribute number
+ 194 is ten times the disk temperature in Celsius.
+
+ [DG] scsicmds.[hc] + scsiprint.c: clean up indentation, remove tabs.
+ Introduce new intermediate interface based on "struct scsi_cmnd_io"
+ to isolate SCSI generic commands + responses from Linux details;
+ should help port to FreeBSD of SCSI part of smartmontools.
+ Make SCSI command builders more parametric.
+
+smartmontools-5.1-9
+
+ [BA] smartctl: if HDIO_DRIVE_TASK ioctl() is not implemented (no
+ kernel support, then try to assess drive health by examining
+ Attribute values/thresholds directly.
+
+ [BA] smartd/smartctl: added -v 200,writeerrorcount option/Directive
+ for Fujitsu disks.
+
+ [BA] smartd: Now send email if any of the SMART commands fails,
+ or if open()ing the device fails. This is often noted
+ as a common disk failure mode.
+
+ [BA] smartd/smartctl: Added -v N,raw8 -v N,raw16 and -v N,raw48
+ Directives/Options for printing Raw Attributes in different
+ Formats.
+
+ [BA] smartd: Added -r ID and -R ID for reporting/tracking Raw
+ values of Attributes.
+
+ [BA] smartd/smartctl: Changed printing of spin-up-time attribute
+ raw value to reflect current/average as per IBM standard.
+
+ [BA] smartd/smartctl: Added -v 9,seconds option for disks which
+ use Attribute 9 for power-on lifetime in seconds.
+
+ [BA] smartctl: Added a warning message so that users of some IBM
+ disks are warned to update their firmware. Note: we may want
+ to add a command-line flag to disable the warning messages.
+ I have done this in a general way, using regexp, so that we
+ can add warnings about any type of disk that we wish...
+
+smartmontools-5.1-7
+
+ [BA] smartd: Created a subdirectory examplescripts/ of source
+ directory that contains executable scripts for the -M exec PATH
+ Directive of smartd.
+
+smartmontools-5.1-5
+
+ [BA] smartd: DEVICESCAN in /etc/smartd.conf
+ can now be followed by all the same Directives as a regular
+ device name like /dev/hda takes. This allows one to use
+ (for example):
+ DEVICESCAN -m root@example.com
+ in the /etc/smartd.conf file.
+
+ [BA] smartd: Added -c (--checkonce) command-line option. This checks
+ all devices once, then exits. The exit status can be
+ used to learn if devices were detected, and if smartd is
+ functioning correctly. This is primarily for Distribution
+ scripters.
+
+ [BA] smartd: Implemented -M exec Directive for
+ smartd.conf. This makes it possible to run an
+ arbitrary script or mailing program with the
+ -m option.
+
+ [PW] smartd: Modified -M Directive so that it can be given
+ multiple times. Added -M exec Directive.
+
+smartmontools-5.1-4
+
+ [BA] Fixed bug in smartctl pointed out by Pierre Gentile.
+ -d scsi didn't work because tryata and tryscsi were
+ reversed -- now works on /devfs SCSI devices.
+
+ [BA] Fixed bug in smartctl pointed out by Gregory Goddard
+ <ggoddard@ufl.edu>. Manual says that bit 6 of return
+ value turned on if errors found in smart error log. But
+ this wasn't implemented.
+
+smartmontools-5.1-3
+
+ [BA] Modified printing format for 9,minutes to read
+ Xh+Ym not X h + Y m, so that fields are fixed width.
+
+ [BA] Added Attribute 240 "head flying hours"
+
+smartmontools-5.1.1
+
+ [BA] As requested, local time/date now printed by smartctl -i
+
+ [PW] Added "help" argument to -v for smartctl
+
+ [PW] Added -D, --showdirectives option to smartd
+
+ [DG] add '-l selftest' capability for SCSI devices (update smartctl.8)
+
+ [BA] smartd,smartctl: added additional Attribute modification option
+ -v 220,temp and -v 9,temp.
+
+ [PW] Renamed smartd option -X to -d
+
+START OF SMARTMONTOOLS 5.1 series
+
+smartmontools-5.0.50
+
+ [PW] Changed smartd.conf Directives -- see man page
+
+ [BA/DG] Fixed uncommented comment in smartd.conf
+
+ [DG] Correct 'Recommended start stop count' for SCSI devices
+
+ [PW] Replaced smartd.conf directive -C with smartd option -i
+
+ [PW] Changed options for smartctl -- see man page.
+
+ [BA] Use strerror() to generate system call error messages.
+
+ [BA] smartd: fflush() all open streams before fork().
+
+ [BA] smartctl, smartd simplified internal handling of checksums
+ for simpler porting and less code.
+
+smartmontools-5.0.49
+
+ [PW] smartd --debugmode changed to --debug
+
+ [BA] smartd/smartctl added attribute 230 Head Amplitude from
+ IBM DPTA-353750.
+
+ [PW] Added list of proposed new options for smartctl to README.
+
+ [PW] smartd: ParseOpts() now uses getopt_long() if HAVE_GETOPT_LONG is
+ defined and uses getopt() otherwise. This is controlled by CPPFLAGS in
+ the Makefile.
+
+ [BA] smartd: Fixed a couple of error messages done with perror()
+ to redirect them as needed.
+
+smartmontools-5.0.48
+
+ [BA] smartctl: The -O option to enable an Immediate off-line test
+ did not print out the correct time that the test would take to
+ complete. This is because the test timer is volatile and not
+ fixed. This has been fixed, and the smartctl.8 man page has been
+ updated to explain how to track the Immediate offline test as it
+ progresses, and to further emphasize the differences between the
+ off-line immediate test and the self-tests.
+
+ [BA] smartd/smartctl: Added new attribute (200) Multi_Zone_Error_Rate
+
+ [BA] smartctl: modified so that arguments could have either a single -
+ as in -ea or multiple ones as in -e -a. Improved warning message for
+ device not opened, and fixed error in redirection of error output of
+ HD identity command.
+
+ [PW] smartd: added support for long options. All short options are still
+ supported; see manpage for available long options.
+
+ [BA] smartctl. When raw Attribute value was 2^31 or larger, did
+ not print correctly.
+
+smartmontools-5.0.46
+
+ [BA] smartd: added smartd.conf Directives -T and -s. The -T Directive
+ enables/disables Automatic Offline Testing. The -s Directive
+ enables/disables Attribute Autosave. Documentation and
+ example configuration file updated to agree.
+
+ [BA] smartd: user can make smartd check the disks at any time
+ (ie, interrupt sleep) by sending signal SIGUSR1 to smartd. This
+ can be done for example with:
+ kill -USR1 <pid>
+ where <pid> is the process ID number of smartd.
+
+ [EB] scsi: don't trust the data we receive from the drive too
+ much. It very well might have errors (like zero response length).
+ Seen on Megaraid logical drive, and verified in the driver source.
+
+ [BA] smartd: added Directive -m for sending test email and
+ for modifying email reminder behavior. Updated manual, and sample
+ configuration file to illustrate & explain this.
+
+ [BA] smartd: increased size of a continued smartd.conf line to
+ 1023 characters.
+
+ [BA] Simplified Directive parsers and improved warning/error
+ messages.
+
+smartmontools-5.0.45
+
+ [EB] Fixed bug in smartd where testunitready logic inverted
+ prevented functioning on scsi devices.
+ The bug in question only affects smartd users with scsi devices.
+ To see if your version of smartd has the testunitready() bug, do
+ smartd -V
+ If the version of the module smartd.c in a line like:
+ Module: smartd.c revision: 1.66 date: 2002/11/17
+ has a revision greater than or equal to 1.30, and less than or equal to
+ 1.64, then your version of the code has this problem.
+ This problem affected releases starting with RELEASE_5_0_16 up to and
+ including RELEASE_5_0_43.
+
+ [BA] Added testunitnotready to smartctl for symmetry with smartd.
+
+ [SB] added Czech descriptions to .spec file
+ [SB] corrected comment in smartd.conf example
+
+ [BA] Changed way that entries in the ATA error log are printed,
+ to make it clearer which is the most recent error and
+ which is the oldest one.
+
+ NOTE: All changes made prior to this point were done by Bruce Allen
+ [BA] although several of them had been suggested by earlier postings
+ by Stanislav Brabec [SB].
+
+smartmontools-5.0.43
+
+ Changed Temperature_Centigrade to Temperature_Celsius.
+ The term "Centigrade" ceased to exist in 1948. (c.f
+ http://www.bartleby.com/64/C004/016.html).
+
+smartmontools-5.0.42
+
+ Modified SCSI device check to also send warning emails if
+ requested in directives file.
+
+ Added a new smartd configuration file Directive: -M ADDRESS.
+ This sends a single warning email to ADDRESS for failures or
+ errors detected with the -c, -L, -l, or -f Directives.
+
+smartmontools-5.0.38
+
+ Modified perror() statements in atacmds.c so that printout for SMART
+ commands errors is properly suppressed or queued depending upon users
+ choices for error reporting modes.
+
+ Added Italian descriptions to smartmontools.spec file.
+
+ Started implementing send-mail-on-error for smartd; not yet enabled.
+
+ Added -P (Permissive) Directive to smartd.conf file to allow SMART
+ monitoring of pre-ATA-3 Rev 4 disks that have SMART but do not have
+ a SMART capability bit.
+
+ Removed charset encodings from smartmontools.spec file for non-English
+ fields.
+
+smartmontools-5.0.32
+
+ Added manual page smartd.conf.5 for configuration file.
+
+ smartctl: Missing ANSI prototype in failuretest(); fixed.
+
+ smartctl: Checksum warnings now printed on stdout, or are silent,
+ depending upon -q and -Q settings.
+
+smartmontools-5.0.31
+
+ Changed Makefile so that the -V option does not reflect file state
+ before commit!
+
+ smartctl: added new options -W, -U, and -P to control if and how the
+ smartctl exits if an error is detected in either a SMART data
+ structure checksum, or a SMART command returns an error.
+
+ modified manual page to break options into slightly more logical
+ categories.
+
+ reformatted 'usage' message order to agree with man page ordering
+
+ modified .spec file so that locale information now contains
+ character set definition. Changed pt_BR to pt since we do not use any
+ aspect other than language. See man setlocale.
+
+smartmontools-5.0.30
+ smartctl: added new options -n and -N to force device to be ATA or SCSI
+ smartctl: no longer dies silently if device path does not start/dev/X
+ smartctl: now handles arbitrary device paths
+
+smartmontools-5.0.29
+ Modified .spec file and Makefile to make them more compliant with
+ the "right" way of doing things.
+
+smartmontools-5.0.26
+ Fixed typesetting error in man page smartd.8
+
+ Removed redundant variable (harmless) from smartd.c
+
+smartmontools-5.0.25
+
+ Added a new directive for the configuration file. If the word
+ DEVICESCAN appears before any non-commented material in the
+ configuration file, then the confi file will be ignored and the
+ devices wil be scanned.
+
+smartmontools-5.0.24
+
+ Note: it has now been confirmed that the code modifications between
+ 5.0.23 and 5.0.24 have eliminated the GCC 3.2 problems. Note that
+ there is a GCC bug however, see #8404 at
+ http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?database=gcc&cmd=query
+ http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8404
+
+ Added new Directive for Configuration file:
+ -C <N> This sets the time in between disk checks to be <N>
+ seconds apart. Note that although you can give
+ this Directive multiple times on different lines of
+ the configuration file, only the final value that
+ is given has an effect, and applies to all the
+ disks. The default value of <N> is 1800 sec, and
+ the minimum allowed value is ten seconds.
+
+ Problem wasn't the print format. F.L.W. Meunier <0@pervalidus.net>
+ sent me a gcc 3.2 build and I ran it under a debugger. The
+ problem seems to be with passing the very large (2x512+4) byte
+ data structures as arguments. I never liked this anyway; it was
+ inherited from smartsuite. So I've changed all the heavyweight
+ functions (ATA ones, anyone) to just passing pointers, not hideous
+ kB size structures on the stack. Hopefully this will now build OK
+ under gcc 3.2 with any sensible compilation options.
+
+smartmontools-5.0.23
+
+ Because of reported problems with GCC 3.2 compile, I have gone
+ thorough the code and explicitly changed all print format
+ parameters to correspond EXACTLY to int unless they have to be
+ promoted to long longs. To quote from the glibc bible: [From
+ GLIBC Manual: Since the prototype doesn't specify types for
+ optional arguments, in a call to a variadic function the default
+ argument promotions are performed on the optional argument
+ values. This means the objects of type char or short int (whether
+ signed or not) are promoted to either int or unsigned int, as
+ appropriate.]
+
+smartmontools-5.0.22
+
+ smartd, smartctl now warn if they find an attribute whose ID
+ number does not match between Data and Threshold structures.
+
+ Fixed nasty bug which led to wrong number of arguments for a
+ varargs statement, with attendent stack corruption. Sheesh!
+ Have added script to CVS attic to help find such nasties in the
+ future.
+
+smartmontools-5.0.21
+
+ Eliminated some global variables out of header files and other
+ minor cleanup of smartd.
+
+smartmontools-5.0.20
+
+ Did some revision of the man page for smartd and made the usage
+ messages for Directives 100% consistent.
+
+smartmontools-5.0-19
+
+ smartd: prints warning message when it gets SIGHUP, saying that it
+ is NOT re-reading the config file.
+
+ smartctl: updated man page to say self-test commands -O,x,X,s,S,A
+ appear to be supported in the code. [I can't test these, can anyone
+ report?]
+
+smartmontools-5.0-18
+
+ smartctl: smartctl would previously print the LBA of a self-test
+ if it completed, and the LBA was not 0 or 0xff...f However
+ according to the specs this is not correct. According to the
+ specs, if the self-test completed without error then LBA is
+ undefined. This version fixes that. LBA value only printed if
+ self-test encountered an error.
+
+smartmontools-5.0-17
+
+ smartd has changed significantly. This is the first CVS checkin of
+ code that extends the options available for smartd. The following
+ options can be placed into the /etc/smartd.conf file, and control the
+ behavior of smartd.
+ Configuration file Directives (following device name):
+ -A Device is an ATA device
+ -S Device is a SCSI device
+ -c Monitor SMART Health Status
+ -l Monitor SMART Error Log for changes
+ -L Monitor SMART Self-Test Log for new errors
+ -f Monitor for failure of any 'Usage' Attributes
+ -p Report changes in 'Prefailure' Attributes

+ cleaned up functions used for printing CVS IDs. Now use string
+ library, as it should be.
+
+ modified length of device name string in smartd internal structure
+ to accommodate max length device name strings
+
+ removed un-implemented (-e = Email notification) option from
+ command line arg list. We'll put it back on when implemented.
+
+ smartd now logs serious (fatal) conditions in its operation at
+ loglevel LOG_CRIT rather than LOG_INFO before exiting with error.
+
+ smartd used to open a file descriptor for each SMART enabled
+ device, and then keep it open the entire time smartd was running.
+ This meant that some commands, like IOREADBLKPART did not work,
+ since the fd to the device was open. smartd now opens the device
+ when it needs to read values, then closes it. Also, if one time
+ around it can't open the device, it simply prints a warning
+ message but does not give up. Have eliminated the .fd field from
+ data structures -- no longer gets used.
+
+ smartd now opens SCSI devices as well using O_RDONLY rather than
+ O_RDWR. If someone can no longer monitor a SCSI device that used
+ to be readable, this may well be the reason why.
+
+ smartd never checked if the number of ata or scsi devices detected
+ was greater than the max number it could monitor. Now it does.
+
+smartmontools-5.0-16
+
+ smartd on startup now looks in the configuration file /etc/smartd.conf for
+ a list of devices which to include in its monitoring list. See man page
+ (man smartd) for syntax.
+
+ smartd: close file descriptors of SCSI device if not SMART capable
+ Closes ALL file descriptors after forking to daemon.
+
+ added new temperature attribute (231, temperature)
+
+ smartd: now open ATA disks using O_RDONLY
+
+smartmontools-5.0-11
+
+ smartd now prints the name of a failed or changed attribute
+ into logfile, not just ID number
+
+ Changed name of -p (print version) option to -V
+
+ Minor change in philosophy: if a SMART command fails or the device
+ appears incapable of a SMART command that the user has asked for,
+ complain by printing an error message, but go ahead and try
+ anyway. Since unimplemented SMART commands should just return an
+ error but not cause disk problems, this shouldn't cause any
+ difficulty.
+
+ Added two new flags: q and Q. q is quiet mode - only print: For
+ the -l option, errors recorded in the SMART error log; For the -L
+ option, errors recorded in the device self-test log; For the -c
+ SMART "disk failing" status or device attributes (pre-failure or
+ usage) which failed either now or in the past; For the -v option
+ device attributes (pre-failure or usage) which failed either now
+ or in the past. Q is Very Quiet mode: Print no output. The only
+ way to learn about what was found is to use the exit status of
+ smartctl.
+
+ smartctl now returns sensible values (bitmask). See smartctl.h
+ for the values, and the man page for documentation.
+
+ The SMART status check now uses the correct ATA call. If failure
+ is detected we search through attributes to list the failed ones.
+ If the SMART status check shows GOOD, we then look to see if their
+ are any usage attributes or prefail attributes have failed at any
+ time. If so we print them.
+
+ Modified function that prints vendor attributes to say if the
+ attribute has currently failed or has ever failed.
+
+ -p option now prints out license info and CVS strings for all
+ modules in the code, nicely formatted.
+
+ Previous versions of this code (and Smartsuite) only generate
+ SMART failure errors if the value of an attribute is below the
+ threshold and the prefailure bit is set. However the ATA Spec
+ (ATA4 <=Rev 4) says that it is a SMART failure if the value of an
+ attribute is LESS THAN OR EQUAL to the threshold and the
+ prefailure bit is set. This is now fixed in both smartctl and
+ smartd. Note that this is a troubled subject -- the original
+ SFF 8035i specification defining SMART was inconsistent about
+ this. One section says that Attribute==Threshold is pass,
+ and another section says it is fail. However the ATA specs are
+ consistent and say Attribute==Threshold is a fail.
+
+ smartd did not print the correct value of any failing SMART attribute. It
+ printed the index in the attribute table, not the attribute
+ ID. This is fixed.
+
+ when starting self-tests in captive mode ioctl returns EIO because
+ the drive has been busied out. Detect this and don't return an error
+ in this case. Check this this is correct (or how to fix it?)
+
+ fixed possible error in how to determine ATA standard support
+ for devices with no ATA minor revision number.
+
+ device opened only in read-only not read-write mode. Don't need R/W
+ access to get smart data. Check this with Andre.
+
+ smartctl now handles all possible choices of "multiple options"
+ gracefully. It goes through the following phases of operation,
+ in order: INFORMATION, ENABLE/DISABLE, DISPLAY DATA, RUN/ABORT TESTS.
+ Documentation has bee updated to explain the different phases of
+ operation. Control flow through ataPrintMain()
+ simplified.
+
+ If reading device identity information fails, try seeing if the info
+ can be accessed using a "DEVICE PACKET" command. This way we can
+ at least get device info.
+
+ Modified Makefile to automatically tag CVS archive on issuance of
+ a release
+
+ Modified drive detection so minor device ID code showing ATA-3 rev
+ 0 (no SMART) is known to not be SMART capable.
+
+ Now verify the checksum of the device ID data structure, and of the
+ attributes threshold structure. Before neither of these
+ structures had their checksums verified.
+
+ New behavior vis-a-vis checksums. If they are wrong, we log
+ warning messages to stdout, stderr, and syslog, but carry on
+ anyway. All functions now call a checksumwarning routine if the
+ checksum doesn't vanish as it should.
+
+ Changed Read Hard Disk Identity function to get fresh info from
+ the disk on each call rather than to use the values that were read
+ upon boot-up into the BIOS. This is the biggest change in this
+ release. The ioctl(device, HDIO_GET_IDENTITY, buf ) call should
+ be avoided in such code. Note that if people get garbled strings
+ for the model, serial no and firmware versions of their drives,
+ then blame goes here (the BIOS does the byte swapping for you,
+ apparently!)
+
+ Function ataSmartSupport now looks at correct bits in drive
+ identity structure to verify first that these bits are valid,
+ before using them.
+
+ Function ataIsSmartEnabled() written which uses the Drive ID state
+ information to tell if SMART is enabled or not. We'll carry this
+ along for the moment without using it.
+
+ Function ataDoesSmartWork() guaranteed to work if the device
+ supports SMART.
+
+ Replace some numbers by #define MACROS
+
+ Wrote Function TestTime to return test time associated with each
+ different type of test.
+
+ Thinking of the future, have added a new function called
+ ataSmartStatus2(). Eventually when I understand how to use the
+ TASKFILE API and am sure that this works correctly, it will
+ replace ataSmartStatus(). This queries the drive directly to
+ see if the SMART status is OK, rather than comparing thresholds to
+ attribute values ourselves. But I need to get some drives that fail
+ their SMART status to check it.
