Summary: Utilities for devices that use SCSI command sets

Description: 

Collection of Linux utilities for devices that use the SCSI command set.
Includes utilities to copy data based on "dd" syntax and semantics
(called sg_dd, sgp_dd and sgm_dd); check INQUIRY data and VPD pages
(sg_inq); check mode and log pages (sginfo, sg_modes and sg_logs); spin
up and down disks (sg_start); do self tests (sg_senddiag); and various
other functions.  See the README, ChangeLog and COVERAGE files. Requires
the linux kernel 2.4 series or later.  In the 2.4 series SCSI generic
device names (e.g. /dev/sg0) must be used.  In the 2.6 series other
device names may be used as well (e.g. /dev/sda).

Warning: Some of these tools access the internals of your system
and the incorrect usage of them may render your system inoperable.
