As discussed in another thread on the subject, the sg_sat_read_gplog utility was added in the most recent release of the package: http://sg.danny.cz/sg/p/sg3_utils-1.40.tar.xz as a framework for adding ATA and SATA general purpose log pages. This approach is consistent with the way the package has one utility for all SCSI logs pages: sg_logs. So if you or anyone else wants support for ATA log pages in sg3_utils, could you please send me patches against the sg_sat_read_gplog utility. Doug Gilbert
