at the Concurrent Systems Laboratory (now part of the Storage Systems
Research Center), Jack Baskin School of Engineering, University of
California, Santa Cruz. http://ssrc.soe.ucsc.edu/
+
+smartmontools-5.0-8:
+
+ For IBM disks whose raw temp data includes three temps. print all
+ three
+
+ print timestamps for error log to msec precision
+
+ added -m option for Hitachi disks that store power on life in
+ minutes
+
+ added -L option for printing self-test error logs
+
+ in -l option, now print power on lifetime, so that one can see
+ when the error took place
+
+ updated SMART structure definitions to ATA-5 spec
+
+ added -p option
+
+ added -f and -F options to enable/disable autosave threshold
+ parameters
+
+ changed argv parsing to use getops -- elminate buffer overflow
+ vulnerability
+
+ expanded and corrected documentation
+
+ fixed problem with smartd. It did not actually call
+ ataSmartEnable()! Since the argument was left out, the test
+ always suceeded because it evaluated to a pointer to the function.
+
+ smartd: closed open file descriptors if device does not support
+ smart. Note: this still needs to be fixed for SCSI devices
+
+
+smartmontools-5.0-0 STARTED with smartsuite-2.1-2

Extensions
----------
-Produce version for ATA/ATAPI-6
+Produce version for ATA/ATAPI-6 (support for extended error logs)
+
Produce version for ATA/ATAPI-7
Modifications
-------------
Command line option to specify devices to look for in smartd startup
+
+Print flags meanings in Vendor Attribute list -- not hex value
+
+When actual attribute(s) less than threshold, print these clearly (highlighted)
+
+Also, have test to see if vendor attributes are under threshold even if
+prefailure bit NOT set (old age, for example).
+
+Fixes
+-----
+int ataSmartStatus (int device ) is broken -- see comments in code.
+
+SCSI code in smartd leaves file descriptors open if SMART not supported..
+
+Fix lots of syntax like if (a != 0)
