[Devil-linux-develop] [fmII] sg_utils 1.03 released (Linux 2.4 branch)

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

This email is to inform you about the release of version '1.03' of
'sg_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:
An sg_senddiag utility was added for self tests. Most utilities were
enhanced so they can safely be used against SCSI block device names
(e.g., /dev/sda) in the lk 2.5 development series. Extra
functionality was added to sg_modes and sg_logs (e.g., decode
informational exception log page).  

Project description:
The sg_utils package includes 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 the SCSI bus. The sg3_utils
package is for the Linux 2.4 series, while sg_utils is for the 2.2
series with some support for the 2.0 series.
