linux - How to get hard disk serial number using Python

How can I get the serial number of a hard disk drive using Python on Linux?

I would like to use a Python module to do that instead of running an external program such as hdparm. Perhaps using the fcntl module?

Linux

As you suggested, fcntl is the way to do this on Linux. The C code you want to translate looks like this:

static struct hd_driveid hd;
int fd;

if ((fd = open("/dev/hda", O_RDONLY | O_NONBLOCK)) < 0) {
    printf("ERROR opening /dev/hda
");
    exit(1);
}

if (!ioctl(fd, HDIO_GET_IDENTITY, &hd)) {
    printf("%.20s
", hd.serial_no);
} else if (errno == -ENOMSG) {
    printf("No serial number available
");
} else {
    perror("ERROR: HDIO_GET_IDENTITY");
    exit(1);
}

Translated into Python on Ubuntu 9.10, it goes a little something like this:

import sys, os, fcntl, struct

if os.geteuid() >  0:
    print("ERROR: Must be root to use")
    sys.exit(1)

with open(sys.argv[1], "rb") as fd:
    # tediously derived from the monster struct defined in <hdreg.h>
    # see comment at end of file to verify
    hd_driveid_format_str = "@ 10H 20s 3H 8s 40s 2B H 2B H 4B 6H 2B I 36H I Q 152H"
    # Also from <hdreg.h>
    HDIO_GET_IDENTITY = 0x030d
    # How big a buffer do we need?
    sizeof_hd_driveid = struct.calcsize(hd_driveid_format_str)

    # ensure our format string is the correct size
    # 512 is extracted using sizeof(struct hd_id) in the c code
    assert sizeof_hd_driveid == 512 

    # Call native function
    buf = fcntl.ioctl(fd, HDIO_GET_IDENTITY, " " * sizeof_hd_driveid)
    fields = struct.unpack(hd_driveid_format_str, buf)
    serial_no = fields[10].strip()
    model = fields[15].strip()
    print("Hard Disk Model: %s" % model)
    print("  Serial Number: %s" % serial_no)
