sg3_utils is a package of command line utilities for sending SCSI and some ATA commands to devices. This package targets the linux kernel (lk) 3, 2.6 and lk 2.4 series. It also has ports to FreeBSD, Tru64, Solaris, and Windows (cygwin and mingw). This version adds sg_compare_and_write (contributed by Shahar Salzman). Also Hannes Reinecke has done more work on 'sg_inq --export' to support udev. This version tracks various changes made by www.t10.org since October 2012.
