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
Poly-C

Reproducible: Always

hdparm-7.3_ebuild.diff

The additional sed-line is necessary, as the Makefile in this package strips
the binary itself leading to a QA-notice during installation.
