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
