Description: Utilities for working with generic SCSI devices
 This package includes a number of utilities to manipulate the linux "sg"
 (version 3) device driver.
 .
 This driver is only found in 2.4.x linux kernels; if you are using
 2.2 (or earlier), please install the sg-utils package instead.
 .
 The package includes:
     * sg_dd - a variant of 'dd' that works with the sg interface
     * sgm_dd - like sg_dd, but uses mmap()'d IO
     * sgp_dd - like sg_dd, only multithreaded
     * sg_scan - displays the SCSI bus on stdout
     * sg_map - shows the mapping between SCSI devices and sg devices
     * scsi_devfs_scan - scans devfs systems to identify SCSI devices
     * sg_inq - a utility for poking around with the SCSI INQUIRY command
     * sginfo - a re-porting of the 'scsiinfo' program to use sg devices
     * sg_readcap - prints the output of a READ CAPACITY command
     * sg_start - spins up (or down) disks
     * sg_modes - prints out mode sense pages
     * sg_logs - prints out log sense pages
     * sg_senddiag - runs SCSI self tests
     * sg_reset - exercises SCSI device/bus/host reset capability
     * sg_rbuf - tests SCSI bus speed
     * sg_test_rwbuf - tests the SCSI host adapter
     * sg_read - reads multiple blocks, useful for timing
     * sg_runt_ex - an example program to test the sg driver version
     * sg_turs - execute a TEST UNIT READY command on the given device
     * sg_debug - prints debug info for all open sg file descriptors
 .
 It also includes sg_simple1, sg_simple2 and sg_simple3 which
 demonstrate calls to the SCSI INQUIRY and TEST UNIT READY commands.
 The first two only differ in their error processing: sg_simple1 uses
 sg_err.[hc] for error processing while sg_simple2 does its own more
 primitive checks.
 .
 "sg_simple3" tests out user space scatter gather added to the 
  version 3 sg driver.
