Anonymize the serial numbers in the gui, the
log and the summary table.
If a serial number was obtained from the device,
it is replaced with "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX".
If the serial number could not be obtained from the
device, it's replaced with "???????????????".
This fixes column alignment issues in the gui
with nvme drives i.e. nvme0n1 etc. If the drive
name including path exceeds 8 characters the
/dev/ is removed and prefixed with spaces to
a total max length of 8 characters.
In both selection and wipe status windows I
moved the temperature readout to the right
of the disk size column.
Also in the wipe status window, by moving to
the right of the disk size column the
temperature is no longer on the same line as
the disk pass progress. This reduces the line
length as I found that in tests if you had
many verification errors the temperature
being on the end of the line would disappear
of the right of the screen.
Also removed 1. 2. etc from drive selection
to reduce the line length. Also removed the
space between > and [, ie "> [wipe]" becomes
">[wipe]" These changes remove 3 characters
and help to reduce the affect of the additional
temperature field [30C] which add 5 characters.
Therefore the line length overall, increased by
5-3 = 2 characters.
This helps to reduce line wrapping on 80
character terminals, when the drive model length
exceeds 24 characters.
1. Changed a few nwipe log messages to improve
readability.
2. Added code so that the temperature changes from
- white text = (Temperature within spec)
- red text = max continuous temp reached
- red flashing text = critical upper temperature reached
- black text = minimum continuous temperature reached
- black flashing text = critical lower temperature reached.
1. Changed gui format specifier to match signed
integer that we changed to in the previous commit.
2. Changed the format specifier in verbose nwipe logging of
the temperatures and moved the nwipe log message that prints
the hwmonX path to the log in order to remove
unnecessary printing to the log.
1. Changed u64 to int to support negative
temperature values, i.e. temp1_lcrit may
be as low as -40C
2. In gui surround temperature reading with
square brackets instead of round brackets to
be consistent with the rest of the drive status line
Stage 2 modifies the GUI to trigger a temperature
update every 60 seconds. Changes were made to the
drive progress line to include [ 30C ]. The drive
context structure had another variable added that
records the time of the temperature update.
Note. When the temperature data cannot be retrieved
from the hwmon (drivetemp) module the GUI displays
[ --C ]. USB devices, even those adapters that support
ATA pass through, don't seem to work with hwmon (drivetemp),
at least the adapters I have don't work with drivetemp
to monitor temperature.
Stage 1 adds the additional variables to the drive
context and creates the temperature initialisation
function, which associates a hwmonX directory with
a block device. Also wrote the context update function,
that reads hwmon for each drive context and writes the
temperatures back to the context.
Stage 2 commit to follow which will make changes within
the GUI to call the update function every 60 seconds
and display the temperature information.
For some controllers/drivers the readlink method of
obtaining the bus type for GUI display does not work.
If we haven't already resolved the bus type, we then
also check smartctl for the transport protocol
for SATA.
