[Devil-linux-software] [fmII] sg_utils and sg3_utils 1.18 released (Linux 2.4 branch)

[<no...@fr...>]

This email is to inform you about the release of version '1.18' of
'sg_utils and sg3_utils' through freshmeat.net. All URLs and other useful
information can be found at

    http://freshmeat.net/projects/sg_utils/

The changes in this release are as follows:
This release adds an sg_map26 utility for mapping between a primary
SCSI device node and the corresponding sg node (or vice versa).
sg_map26 assumes sysfs, hence is only applicable to the 2.6 Linux
kernel series. sg_dd now takes iflag and oflag options similar to
those found in recent GNU dd versions. "sg_inq -rr" now outputs an
ATA IDENTIFY response in a form suitable for "hdparm --Istdin" to
decode.  

Release focus:
4 - Minor feature enhancements

Project description:
sg_utils and sg3_utils are packages that contain tools for working
with devices that use the SCSI command set. They include variants of
the Unix dd command called sg_dd and sgp_dd that speed copies to,
from, and between SCSI disks and CDROMs. sg_map and sg_scan supply
information about SCSI devices and how they are related to other
drivers. There are utilities for timing and testing SCSI devices and
retrieving mode and log page data. The sg3_utils package is for the
Linux 2.4 and 2.6 series, while sg_utils is for the 2.2 series with
some support for the 2.0 series.
