sg3_utils is a package of command line utilities for sending SCSI commands
to storage devices. In some contexts it can send ATA and/or NVMe commands.
The package targets the Linux 5, 4, 3, 2.6 and 2.4 kernel series. It has
ports to FreeBSD, Android, Solaris, and Windows (cygwin and MinGW). There
is now a dummy port for unsupported OSes (e.g. NetBSD) which will permit
decoding of some SCSI command responses via the --inhex=FN option.
For an overview of sg3_utils and downloads see either of these pages:
https://sg.danny.cz/sg/sg3_utils.html

The sg_ses utility (for enclosure devices) is discussed at:
https://sg.danny.cz/sg/sg_ses.html
A full changelog can be found at:

This github mirror needs to be updated:
https://github.com/hreinecke/sg3_utils
Plus the author's own github mirror:
https://github.com/doug-gilbert/sg3_utils
That last mirror is up-to-date and has git tags going back to "r1.20"
which is sg3_utils 1.20 released 15 years ago.
Here is the top of that ChangeLog, stopping at the previous release:
Changelog for released sg3_utils-1.47 [20211110] [svn: r919]
- sg_rep_zones: add support for REPORT ZONE DOMAINS and
REPORT REALMS in this utility
- sg_raw: fix prints of NVMe NVM command names
- sg_ses: fix Windows problem "No command (cdb) given"
- fix crash when '-m LEN' < 252
- guard against smaller '--maxlen=' values
- sg_logs: additions to Volume statistics lpage [ssc5r05c]
- additions to Command duration limits statistics log
page [spc6r06]
- sg_vpd: fix do_hex type on some recent pages
- zoned block dev char vpd: add zone alignment mode and
zone starting LBA granularity [zbc2r11]
- sg_read_buffer: fix --length= problem
- sg_dd, sgm_dd, sgp_dd: don't close negative file descriptors
- sg_dd: srand48_r() and mrand48_r() are GNU libc specific,
put conditional in so non-reentrant version used otherwise
- 'iflag=00,ff' places the 32 bit block address (big endian)
into each block
- sgp_dd: major rework, fix issue with error being ignored
- new: --chkaddr which checks for block address in each block
- add check for stdatomic.h presence in configure.ac
- sg_xcopy: tweak CSCD identification descriptor
- sg_get_elem_status: fix issue with '--maxlen=' option
- add 2 depopulation revocation health attributes [sbc5r01]
- transport error handling improved. To fix report of a
BAD_TARGET transport error but the utility still continued.
- introduce SG_LIB_TRANSPORT_ERROR [35] exit status
- several utilities: override '--maxlen=LEN' when LEN
is < 16 (or 4), take default (or 4) instead
- scripts: 55-scsi-sg3_id.rules remove outdated rule
- sg_lib: add sg_scsi_status_is_good(),
sg_scsi_status_is_bad() and sg_get_zone_type_str()
- pt_linux: fix verify(BytChk=0) which Linux SNTL translated
to write, other SNTL cleanups
- pt_linux_nvme: fix fua setting
- pt: check_pt_file_handle() add return value of 5 for
FreeBSD for nvme(cam)
- pt: new configure option --enable-pt_dummy builds the
library with sg_pt_dummy.c instead of OS specific code;
for experimenting with --inhex= decoding on netbsd
- pt: add Haiku OS support
- gcc -fanalyzer fixes: in sg_pt_linux.c + sg_write_x.c
- sg_pt_dummy.c: add list of functions that a new pt
needs to define
- configure.ac: tweak to accept uclinux as linux
- move some hex files from examples to inhex directory
- major rework of lib/sg_pt_freebsd.c; make SNTL as similar
as practical to the Linux implementation
- add testing/sg_take_snap
- change links to http://sg.danny/cz/sg/* to https
