Hi,
hdparm-7.3 was released in April 30, 2007. Changes since version 6.9 are:
hdparm-7.3
- fixed spelling of --drq-hsm-error in -h output
- fixed SG_IO CDB[2] bits for better SAT compliance
- fixed version number (v7.2 has "7.1" as version, doh!)
- added #ifdef around use of BLKGETSIZE64
- manpage updated
hdparm-7.2
- tweak -C
- added more debug info from --verbose
- added --drq-hsm-error to test libata EH (VERY DANGEROUS, do not use)
- fixed breakage when used with old IDE driver
hdparm-7.1
- big-endian fixes for -I, --Istdin, --Istdout
- cody tidying in sgio.c
- updated help/manpage for -v
- marked -s1 as (DANGEROUS)
hdparm-7.0
- new command-line parser
- allow any chars (except 0x00) in security passwords
- fixed -s manpage format error
- updated -W manpage description
- major internal rework in hdparm.c
- added SET_FEATURES subcommand 0x07 to the -s0 sequence
(the kernel will eventually have to do this automatically)
- fixed duplicate display of udma modes 3,4,5 with -i
- added Timed-Command-Completion (TLC) data for -I
- added support for SG_IO (SAT) ATA_16 command transport
- ignore case for longargs (eg. --istdout or --Istdout)
- remove dependencies on <linux/hdreg.h>
- added query wcache (-W)
- enhanced query acoustic (-M)
- added kernel_patches directory with patches for ATAPI support
Could be interesting for libata users :)
Cheers
