Device might be resized during ata_dev_configure() due to HPA or
(later) ACPI _GTF. Currently it's worked around by caching n_sectors
before turning off HPA. The cached original size is overwritten if
the device is reconfigured without being hardreset - which always
happens after configuring trasnfer mode. If the device gets hardreset
for some reason after that, revalidation fails with -ENODEV.
This patch makes size checking more robust by moving n_sectors check
from ata_dev_reread_id() to ata_dev_revalidate() after the device is
fully configured. No matter what happens during configuration, a
device must have the same n_sectors after fully configured to be
treated as the same device.

libata enables SCSI host during ATA host activation which happens
after IRQ handler is registered and IRQ is enabled. All ATA ports are
in frozen state when IRQ is enabled but frozen ports may raise limited
number of IRQs after being frozen - IOW, ->freeze() is not responsible
for clearing pending IRQs. During normal operation, the IRQ handler
is responsible for clearing spurious IRQs on frozen ports and it
usually doesn't require any extra code.
Unfortunately, during host initialization, the IRQ handler can end up
scheduling EH for a port whose SCSI host isn't initialized yet. This
results in OOPS in the SCSI midlayer. This is relatively short window
and scheduling EH for probing is the first thing libata does after
initialization, so ignoring EH scheduling until initialization is
complete solves the problem nicely.
This problem was spotted by Berck E. Nash in the following thread.

The intention of using port_mask in SFF init helpers was to eventually
support exoctic configurations such as combination of legacy and
native port on the same controller. This never became actually
necessary and the related code always has been subtly broken one way
or the other. Now that new init model is in place, there is no reason
to make common helpers capable of handling all corner cases. Exotic
cases can simply dealt within LLDs as necessary.
This patch removes port_mask handling in SFF init helpers. SFF init
helpers don't take n_ports argument and interpret it into port_mask
anymore. All information is carried via port_info. n_ports argument
is dropped and always two ports are allocated. LLD can tell SFF to
skip certain port by marking it dummy. Note that SFF code has been
treating unuvailable ports this way for a long time until recent
breakage fix from Linus and is consistent with how other drivers
handle with unavailable ports.
This fixes 1-port legacy host handling still broken after the recent
native mode fix and simplifies SFF init logic. The following changes
are made...
* ata_pci_init_native_host() and ata_init_legacy_host() both now try
to initialized whatever they can and mark failed ports dummy. They
return 0 if any port is successfully initialized.
* ata_pci_prepare_native_host() and ata_pci_init_one() now doesn't
take n_ports argument. All info should be specified via port_info
array. Always two ports are allocated.
* ata_pci_init_bmdma() exported to be used by LLDs in exotic cases.
* port_info handling in all LLDs are standardized - all port_info
arrays are const stack variable named ppi. Unless the second port
is different from the first, its port_info is specified as NULL
(tells libata that it's identical to the last non-NULL port_info).
* pata_hpt37x/hpt3x2n: don't modify static variable directly. Make an
on-stack copy instead as ata_piix does.
* pata_uli: It has 4 ports instead of 2. Don't use
ata_pci_prepare_native_host(). Allocate the host explicitly and use
init helpers. It's simple enough.

Now that libata uses sd->manage_start_stop, libata spins down disk on
shutdown. In an attempt to compensate libata's previous shortcoming,
some distros sync and spin down disks attached via libata in their
shutdown(8). Some disks spin back up just to spin down again on
STANDBYNOW1 if the command is issued when the disk is spun down, so
this double spinning down causes problem.
This patch implements module parameter libata.spindown_compat which,
when set to one (default value), prevents libata from spinning down
disks on shutdown thus avoiding double spinning down. Note that
libata spins down disks for suspend to mem and disk, so with
libata.spindown_compat set to one, disks should be properly spun down
in all cases without modifying shutdown(8).
shutdown(8) should be fixed eventually. Some drive do spin up on
SYNCHRONZE_CACHE even when their cache is clean. Those disks
currently spin up briefly when sd tries to shutdown the device and
then the machine powers off immediately, which can't be good for the
head. We can't skip SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE during shudown as it can be
dangerous data integrity-wise.
So, this spindown_compat parameter is already scheduled for removal by
the end of the next year and here's what shutdown(8) should do.
* Check whether /sys/modules/libata/parameters/spindown_compat
exists. If it does, write 0 to it.
* For each libata harddisk {
* Check whether /sys/class/scsi_disk/h:c:i:l/manage_start_stop
exists. Iff it doesn't, synchronize cache and spin the disk
down as before.
}
The above procedure will make shutdown(8) work properly with kernels
before this change, ones with this workaround and later ones without
it.
To accelerate shutdown(8) updates, if the compat mode is in use, this
patch prints BIG FAT warning for five seconds during shutdown (the
optimal interval to annoy the user just the right amount discovered by
hours of tireless usability testing).

libata previously depended upon waits in prereset to get resets after
hotplug right for both spin up and device ready wait. This was
necessary both for reliablity and speed as reset was likely to fail if
initiated too early and each try usually took more than 30secs to
fail. Previous patches fixed the reliability part by fixing status
and SCR handling in resets. This patch remedies the speed part by
improving reset sequencing.
Prereset waiting timeout is adjusted to 10s because spinup wait is
replaced by reset sequencing and !BSY wait is not as important as
before. During boot or module loading where the drive is already
fully spun up, !BSY wait succeeds immediately, so 10s should be enough
in most cases. It matters after hotplugging or other error
conditions, but in those cases, !BSY wait in prereset simply can't be
relied upon due to the varied and weird behaviors ATA controllers and
devices show.
Reset is now driven by ata_eh_reset_timeouts[] table which contains
timeouts for each reset try. The first reset can be softreset but the
following ones are always hardreset if available. Each timeout
defines deadline for the reset try. If a reset try fails, reset is
retried with the next timeout till the end of the timeout table is
reached. If a reset try fails before the timeout with error, libata
waits till the deadline of the failed try before retrying.
IOW, the timeout table defines timetable of reset tries such that the
n'th try always begins at least after the sum of all previous timeouts
has passed. The current timetable defines 4 tries and takes around 1
minute.
@0 : First try. This should succeed most of the time during boot.
@10 : 10s is enough to spin up most consumer harddrives. Give it
another shot.
@20 : 20s should spin up > 99% of working drives. This has 30s
timeout for retarded devices needing long idleness post reset.
@55 : Final try with 5s timeout just in case.
The above timetable is trade off between not annoying the device too
much with frequent resets and taking reasonable amount of time in most
cases. Some controllers may do better with shorter timeouts while
others may fare better with longer but we just can't rely upon LLD
writers to test each controller with wide variety of devices using
various scenarios. We need default behavior which reasonably fits
most cases.
I've tested the above timetable on a dozen SATA controllers and a few
PATA controllers with about a dozen different drives from all major
vendors and 4 different ODDs from three different vendors for both
boot and hotplug (if available) cases.
Boot probing is not affected unless the device is broken in which
cases new code gives up on the port after a minute rather than five or
nine minutes. When hotplugging, most devices get detected on the
first or second try. Multi-platter drives with long spin up time
which sometimes took > 40 secs with the original code, now usually
comes up during the second try and at least right after the third try
@20.

This patch updates ata_std_prereset() as follows.
* Don't fail on phy resume failure. Just whine and continue. Failure
from prereset makes libata abort whole reset sequence and give up
the port, so prereset() should be best effort. This is more
important with the coming EH updates as prereset() will be called
with shorter timeout.
* If ata_wait_ready() fails, whine and request hardreset instead.

For PATA, 0xff status indicates empty port. For SATA, it depends on
how the controller emulates status register. On some controllers,
0xff is used to represent broken link or certain stage during reset.
libata currently deals SATA the same. This hasn't caused any problem
because problematic situations usually only occur after hotplug or
other link disruption events and libata blindly waited for the device
to spin up and settle after hotplug giving the link and device
whatever time to go through those stages.
libata is going to replace unconditional spinup wait with generic
timed sequence of resets, so not only getting 0xff handling right for
SATA is, well, the right thing to do, it's much more important now.
This patch makes the following changes.
* Make ata_bus_softreset() return -ENODEV if any of its wait fails
due to 0xff status.
* Fail soft/hardreset if status wait returns -ENODEV indicating 0xff
status while SStatus says the link is online. e.g. Reset fails if
status is 0xff after reset when SStatus reports the linke is online.
If SCR registers are not available, everything is the same as
before.

Add @deadline to prereset and reset methods and make them honor it.
ata_wait_ready() which directly takes @deadline is implemented to be
used as the wait function. This patch is in preparation for EH timing
improvements.
* ata_wait_ready() never does busy sleep. It's only used from EH and
no wait in EH is that urgent. This function also prints 'be
patient' message automatically after 5 secs of waiting if more than
3 secs is remaining till deadline.
* ata_bus_post_reset() now fails with error code if any of its wait
fails. This is important because earlier reset tries will have
shorter timeout than the spec requires. If a device fails to
respond before the short timeout, reset should be retried with
longer timeout rather than silently ignoring the device.
There are three behavior differences.
1. Timeout is applied to both devices at once, not separately. This
is more consistent with what the spec says.
2. When a device passes devchk but fails to become ready before
deadline. Previouly, post_reset would just succeed and let
device classification remove the device. New code fails the
reset thus causing reset retry. After a few times, EH will give
up disabling the port.
3. When slave device passes devchk but fails to become accessible
(TF-wise) after reset. Original code disables dev1 after 30s
timeout and continues as if the device doesn't exist, while the
patched code fails reset. When this happens, new code fails
reset on whole port rather than proceeding with only the primary
device.
If the failing device is suffering transient problems, new code
retries reset which is a better behavior. If the failing device is
actually broken, the net effect is identical to it, but not to the
other device sharing the channel. In the previous code, reset would
have succeeded after 30s thus detecting the working one. In the new
code, reset fails and whole port gets disabled. IMO, it's a
pathological case anyway (broken device sharing bus with working
one) and doesn't really matter.
* ata_bus_softreset() is changed to return error code from
ata_bus_post_reset(). It used to return 0 unconditionally.
* Spin up waiting is to be removed and not converted to honor
deadline.
* To be on the safe side, deadline is set to 40s for the time being.

(S)ATA drives can be configured for "power-up in standby",
a mode whereby a specific "spin up now!" command is required
before the first media access.
Currently, a drive with this feature enabled can not be used at all
with libata, and once in this mode, the drive becomes a doorstop.
The older drivers/ide subsystem at least enumerates the drive,
so that it can be woken up after the fact from a userspace HDIO_*
command, but not libata.
This patch adds support to libata for the "power-up in standby"
mode where a "spin up now!" command (SET_FEATURES) is needed.
With this, libata will recognize such drives, spin them up,
and then re-IDENTIFY them if necessary to get a full/complete
set of drive features data.
Drives in this state are determined by looking for
special values in id[2], as documented in the current ATA specs.

->post_internal_cmd is simplified EH for internal commands. Its
primary mission is to stop the controller such that no rogue memory
access or other activities occur after the internal command is
released. It may provide error diagnostics by setting qc->err_mask
but this hasn't been a requirement.
To ignore SETXFER failure for CFA devices, libata needs to know
whether a command was failed by the device or for any other reason.
ie. internal command needs to get AC_ERR_DEV right.
This patch makes the following changes to AC_ERR_DEV handling and
->post_internal_cmd semantics to accomodate this need and simplify
callback implementation.
1. As long as the correct bits in the result TF registers are set,
there is no need to set AC_ERR_DEV explicitly. libata EH core
takes care of that for both normal and internal commands.
2. The only requirement for ->post_internal_cmd() is to put the
controller into quiescent state. It needs not to set any err_mask.
3. ata_exec_internal_sg() performs minimal error analysis such that
AC_ERR_DEV is automatically set as long as result_tf is filled
correctly.

2.6.21-rc has horrible problems with libata and PATA cable types (and
thus speeds). This occurs because Tejun fixed a pile of other bugs and
we now do cable detect enforcement for drive side detection properly.
Unfortunately we don't do the process around cable detection right. Tejun
identified the problem and pointed to the right Annex in the spec, this patch
implements the rest of the needed changes.
We add a ->cable_detect() method called after the identify
sequence which allows a host to do host side detection at this point
should it wish, or to modify the results of the drive side identify.
This separate ->cable_detect method also cleans up a lot of code because
many drivers have their own error_handler methods which really just set
the cable type.
If there is no ->cable_detect method the cable type is left alone so a
driver setting it earlier (eg because it has the SATA flags set or
because it uses the old error_handler approach) will still do the right
thing (or at least the same thing) as before.
This patch simply adds the cable_detect method and helpers it doesn't use
them but other follow up patches will (ie Adrian please don't submit

Current 2.6.21 libata does the following:
void ata_tf_read(struct ata_port *ap, struct ata_taskfile *tf)
{
struct ata_ioports *ioaddr = &ap->ioaddr;
tf->command = ata_check_status(ap);
...
if (tf->flags & ATA_TFLAG_LBA48) {
iowrite8(tf->ctl | ATA_HOB, ioaddr->ctl_addr);
tf->hob_feature = ioread8(ioaddr->error_addr);
...
}
}
...
static void fill_result_tf(struct ata_queued_cmd *qc)
{
struct ata_port *ap = qc->ap;
ap->ops->tf_read(ap, &qc->result_tf);
qc->result_tf.flags = qc->tf.flags;
}
Based on this, those last two statements fill_result_tf()
appear to me to be in the wrong order, in that the tf->flags
are uninitialized at the point where tf_read() is invoked.
So for lba48 commands, tf_read() won't be reading back the
full lba48 register contents..
Correct?
This patch corrects fill_result_tf() so that the flags
get copied to result_tf before they are used by tf_read().

Recently I got my hands on nVidia's MCP61 PM-AM board, and
it contains IDE chip configured by BIOS with only primary
channel enabled. This confuses code which probes for
device DMA capabilities - it gets 0x60 (happy duplex
device) from primary channel BMDMA, but 0xFF (nobody here)
from secondary channel BMDMA. Due to this code then believes
that chip is simplex. I do not address this problem in
my patch, as I'm not sure how to handle this. Probably
ata_pci_init_one should have bitmap of enabled/possible
interfaces instead of their count, but it looks like
quite intrusive change, and maybe we do not care - for device
with only one channel simplex and regular DMA engines are
same.
But making device simplex pointed out that support for
DMA on simplex devices is currently broken - ata_dev_xfermask
tests whether device is simplex and if it is whether DMA
engine was assigned to this port. If not then it strips
out DMA bits from device. Problem is that code which assigns
DMA engine to port in ata_set_mode first detect device
mode and assigns DMA engine to channel only if some DMA
capable device was found.
And as xfermask stripped out DMA bits, host->simplex_claimed
is always NULL with current implementation.
By allowing DMA either if simplex_claimed is NULL or if it
points to current port DMA can be finally used - it gets
assigned to first port which contains any DMA capable
device.

2.6.21-rc has horrible problems with libata and PATA cable types (and
thus speeds). This occurs because Tejun fixed a pile of other bugs and
we now do cable detect enforcement for drive side detection properly.
Unfortunately we don't do the process around cable detection right. Tejun
identified the problem and pointed to the right Annex in the spec, this patch
implements the needed changes.
The basic requirement is that we have to identify the slave before the
master.
The patch switches the identify order so that we can do the drive side
detection correctly.

is always part of the host_set we don't even need a refcount.
Knowing the owner also means we can reassign simplex DMA channels in

ata_port has two different id fields - id and port_no. id is
system-wide 1-based unique id for the port while port_no is 0-based
host-wide port number. The former is primarily used to identify the
ATA port to the user in printk messages while the latter is used in
various places in libata core and LLDs to index the port inside the
host.
The two fields feel quite similar and sometimes ap->id is used in
place of ap->port_no, which is very difficult to spot. This patch
renames ap->id to ap->print_id to reduce the possibility of such bugs.
Some printk messages are adjusted such that id string (ata%u[.%u])
isn't printed twice and/or to use ata_*_printk() instead of hardcoded
id format.

libata switched to IRQ-driven IDENTIFY when IRQ-driven PIO was

ATA_FLAG_DETECT_POLLING was added recently to selectively use polling
IDENTIFY on problemetic drivers but many controllers and devices are
affected by this problem and trying to adding ATA_FLAG_DETECT_POLLING
for each such case is diffcult and not very rewarding.
This patch makes libata always use polling IDENTIFY. This is
consistent with libata's original behavior and drivers/ide's behavior.
