Start adding support for some of the log pages (i.e. view error
logs on the drive). My drive apparently does not support this.
Mine says it does, but returns garbage that does not conform
the SCSI-2 docs (Michael Weller).
I had the opportunity to get access to more devices, but none
supported proper log pages, go figure. (Michael Weller)
The SCSI issue command ioctl for devices allows only for 4K
of data, the generic scsi interface would be better, but is
not what the user want to do (he wants: scsiinfo /dev/sda).
The utility would have to search the corresponding generic
device itself and use the device which is better suited
for that task. Even worse, not everyone might have the
generic scsi interface support compiled in.
Someone could add that, and it even applies even to scsiformat,
but I'm just too lazy and the results might not be worth it.
I don't really care for the factory defects list, and if a
device accumulates more than a few grown defects it needs
to be dumped anyhow. Michael (eowmob@exp-math.uni-essen.de)
Manual pages for the commands, however the tcl/tk interfaces
basically explain themself and the commands have proper usage
messages compiled in. They are expert only used by definition.
Maybe it is wasted time to write man pages...
I was not able to test the 'query progress' from device support
much. It might need more work..
