Hello Bean,

Please be more specific. What is inconvenient about sg3_utils on embedded
ARM systems?

Are you referring to SCSI commands or rather to UFS commands that fall
outside the SCSI spec? Anyway, an approach that is used by many SCSI drivers
to export information to user space that falls outside the SCSI spec is to
create additional sysfs attributes. See also the sdev_attrs and shost_attrs
members of struct scsi_host_template.
