When I run `smartctl -a`, the ""Vendor Specific SMART Attributes with Thresholds"" section shows in the output, as I'd expect. However, when I run `smartctl -x`, this section isn't included in the output -- instead, I see the following in the output at about the point where I'd expect this section to be: {{{ Write SCT (Get) Feature Control Command failed: scsi error aborted command Wt Cache Reorder: Unknown (SCT Feature Control command failed) Read SMART Data failed: SAT command failed }}} Since the man page indicated that `-x` is equivalent to `-H -i -g all -g wcreorder -c -A -f brief -l xerror,error -l xselftest,selftest -l selective -l directory -l scttemp -l scterc -l devstat -l defects -l sataphy`, I tried running `smartctl` with these flags and then individually eliminating flags until the problem went away. Through this process, I managed to narrow down `-g wcreorder` as being the offending flag -- once I removed that, the issue went away. If it helps, I've attached the output of `smartctl -a`, `smartctl -x`, and `smartctl -x -r ioctl -r ioctl`." defect new minor undecided smartctl 7.3 linux sat
