## Description

Plugin for ATA and SCSI/SAS S.M.A.R.T. device reporting and management. For NVMe health reporting please use the native `nvme` plugin.

This libblockdev plugin strives to provide good enough abstraction on top of vastly different backend implementations. Two plugin implementations are available: `libatasmart` (default) and `smartmontools` (experimental).

Not all plugin implementations provide full functionality and it is advised to use standard libblockdev tech query functions for feature availability testing. For example, the `libatasmart` plugin only provides ATA functionality and error is returned when any SCSI function is called.

#### libatasmart plugin

An implementation proven for over a decade, being essentially a port of UDisks code. The `libatasmart` library is reasonably lightweight with minimal dependencies, light on I/O and consuming C API directly with clearly defined data types. However essentially no quirks or any drive database is present in the library (apart from a couple of very old laptop drives).

#### smartmontools plugin

In contrast to libatasmart, the smartmontools project is a feature-rich implementation supporting specialties like vendor-specific data blocks. It is a considerably heavier implementation I/O-wise due to device type detection and retrieval of more data blocks from the drive.

There's no C API at the moment and the plugin resorts to executing the `smartctl` command and parsing its JSON output, that is by nature loosely-defined. This presents challenges in data type conversions, interpretation of printed values and volatile JSON key presence. Besides, executing external commands always brings certain performance overhead and caution is advised when retrieving SMART data from multiple drives in parallel.

#### Attribute naming and value interpretation

Check BDSmartATAAttribute for the struct members overview first. The plugin public API provides both the implementation-specific attribute names/values as well as unified ('well-known', translated) interpretation that is preferred for general use.

The `well_known_name` property follows the libatasmart-style naming - e.g. `'power-on-hours'`. Unknown or untrusted attributes are either provided in the form of `'attribute-123'` or by `NULL`.

Similarly, value of an attribute is provided in variety of interpretations, subject to availability:

- the `value`, `worst` and `threshold` are normalized values in typical S.M.A.R.T. fashion

- the `value_raw` as a 64-bit untranslated value with no further context of which bits are actually valid for a particular attribute

- the `pretty_value_string` as an implementation-specific string representation, intended for end-user display

- the `pretty_value` and `pretty_value_unit` as a libatasmart-style of unified value/type pair

Both libblockdev plugins strive for best effort of providing accurate values, however there are often challenges ranging from string-to-number conversion, multiple values being unpacked from a single raw number or not having enough context provided by the underlying library for a trusted value interpretation.

#### Attribute validation

It may seem obvious to use numerical attribute ID as an authoritative attribute identifier, however in reality drive vendors tend not to stick with public specifications. Attributes are often reused for vendor-specific values and this differs from model to model even for a single vendor. This is more often the case with SSD drives than traditional HDDs.

Historically it brought confusion and false alarms on user's end and eventually led to some form of quirk database in most projects. Maintaining such database is a lifetime task and the only successful effort is the smartmontools' `drivedb.h` collection. Quirks are needed for about everything - meaning of a particular attribute (i.e. a 'well-known' name), interpretation of a raw value, all this filtered by drive model string and firmware revision.

However even there not everything is consistent and slight variations in a 'well-known' name can be found. Besides, the attribute naming syntax differs from our chosen libatasmart-style form.

For this reason an internal libblockdev translation table has been introduced to ensure a bit of consistency. The translation table is kept conservative, is by no means complete and may get extended in future libblockdev releases. As a result, some attributes may be reported as 'untrusted' or 'unknown'.

The translation table at this point doesn't handle 'moves' where a different attribute ID has been assigned for otherwise well defined attribute.

An experimental `drivedb.h` parser is provided for the libatasmart plugin as an additional tier of validation based on actual drive model + firmware match. Being a C header file, the `drivedb.h` definitions are compiled in the plugin. There's no support for loading external `drivedb.h` file though. This however only serves for validation. Providing backwards mapping to libatasmart-style of attributes is considered as a TODO.

#### Device type detection, multipath

There's a big difference in how a drive is accessed. While `libatasmart` performs only very basic device type detection based on parent subsystem as retrieved from the udev database, `smartctl` implements logic to determine which protocol to use, supporting variety of passthrough mechanisms and interface bridges. Such detection is not always reliable though, having known issues with `dm-multipath` for example.

For this case most plugin functions consume the `extra` argument allowing callers to specify arguments such as `--device=` for device type override. This is only supported by the smartmontools plugin and ignored by the libatasmart plugin.

As a well kept secret libatasmart has historically supported device type override via the `ID_ATA_SMART_ACCESS` udev property. There's no public C API for this and libblockdev generally tends to avoid any udev interaction, leaving the burden to callers.

Valid values for this property include:

- `'sat16'`: 16 Byte SCSI ATA SAT Passthru

- `'sat12'`: 12 Byte SCSI ATA SAT Passthru

- `'linux-ide'`: Native Linux IDE

- `'sunplus'`: SunPlus USB/ATA bridges

- `'jmicron'`: JMicron USB/ATA bridges

- `'none'`: No access method, avoid any I/O and ignore the device

- `'auto'`: Autodetection based on parent subsystem (default)

A common example to override QEMU ATA device type, which often requires legacy IDE protocol:

    1
    KERNEL=="sd*", ENV{ID_VENDOR}=="ATA", ENV{ID_MODEL}=="QEMU_HARDDISK", ENV{ID_ATA}=="1", ENV{ID_ATA_SMART_ACCESS}="linux-ide"

An example of blacklisting a USB device, in case of errors caused by reading SMART data:

    1
    ATTRS{idVendor}=="152d", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2329", ENV{ID_ATA_SMART_ACCESS}="none"
