to have random qc->dma_dir.
This usually doesn't cause problem because LLDs usually check
qc->protocol first and look at qc->dma_dir iff the command needs data
transfer but this doesn't hold for all LLDs.
It might be worthwhile to rename qc->dma_dir to qc->data_dir as we use

HSM_ST_UNKNOWN is not used anywhere. Its value is zero and supposed
to serve sanity check purpose but HSM_ST_IDLE is used for that
purpose. This unused state causes confusion. After a port is
initialized but before the first command is executed, the idle hsm
state is UNKNOWN. However, once a command has completed, the idle hsm
state is IDLE. This defeats sanity check in ata_pio_task() for the

On some controllers (ICHs in piix mode), there is *NO* reliable way to
determine device presence other than issuing IDENTIFY and see how the
transaction proceeds by watching the TF status register.
libata acted this way before irq-pio and phantom devices caused very
little problem but now that IDENTIFY is performed using IRQ drive PIO,
such phantom devices now result in multiple 30sec timeouts during
boot.
This patch implements ATA_FLAG_DETECT_POLLING. If a LLD sets this
flag, libata core issues the initial IDENTIFY in polling mode and if
the initial data transfer fails w/ HSM violation, the port is
considered to be empty thus replicating the old libata and IDE
behavior.

Many drives support LBA48 even when its capacity is smaller than
1<<28, as LBA48 is required for many functionalities. FLUSH_EXT is
mandatory for drives w/ LBA48 support.
Interestingly, at least one of such drives (ST960812A) has problems
dealing with FLUSH_EXT. It eventually completes the command but takes
around 7 seconds to finish in many cases thus drastically slowing down
IO transactions. This seems to be a firmware bug which sneaked into
production probably because no other ATA driver including linux IDE
issues FLUSH_EXT to drives which report support for LBA48 & FLUSH_EXT
but is smaller than 1<<28 blocks.
This patch adds ATA_DFLAG_FLUSH_EXT which is set iff the drive
supports LBA48 & FLUSH_EXT and is larger than LBA28 limit. Both cache
flush paths are updated to issue FLUSH_EXT only when the flag is set.
Note that the changed behavior is more inline with the rest of libata.
libata prefers shorter commands whenever possible.

* ATA_EHI_POST_SETMODE: set while the device is revalidated after

Pass the work_struct pointer to the work function rather than context data.
The work function can use container_of() to work out the data.
For the cases where the container of the work_struct may go away the moment the
pending bit is cleared, it is made possible to defer the release of the
structure by deferring the clearing of the pending bit.
To make this work, an extra flag is introduced into the management side of the
work_struct. This governs auto-release of the structure upon execution.
Ordinarily, the work queue executor would release the work_struct for further
scheduling or deallocation by clearing the pending bit prior to jumping to the
work function. This means that, unless the driver makes some guarantee itself
that the work_struct won't go away, the work function may not access anything
else in the work_struct or its container lest they be deallocated.. This is a
problem if the auxiliary data is taken away (as done by the last patch).
However, if the pending bit is *not* cleared before jumping to the work
function, then the work function *may* access the work_struct and its container
with no problems. But then the work function must itself release the
work_struct by calling work_release().
In most cases, automatic release is fine, so this is the default. Special
initiators exist for the non-auto-release case (ending in _NAR).

Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.
The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.
Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.
This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
And put the old one back at the end:
set_irq_regs(old_regs);
Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
- update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
- profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
+ update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
+ profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
(*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
the input_dev struct.
(*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
pointer or not.
(*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
irq_handler_t.

Non-uniform ports handling got broken while updating libata to handle
those in the same host. Only separate irq for the non-uniform
secondary port was implemented while all other fields (host flags,
transfer mode...) of the secondary port simply shared those of the
first.
For ata_piix combined mode, which ATM is the only user of non-uniform
ports, this causes the secondary port assume the wrong type. This can
cause PATA port to use SATA ops, which results in bogus check on PCS
and detection failure.
This patch adds ata_probe_ent->pinfo2 which points to optional
port_info for the secondary port. For the time being, this seems to
be the simplest solution. This workaround will be removed together
with ata_probe_ent itself after init model is updated to allow more

This changes the performance profile (and potential bug profile)

Implement dummy port which can be requested by setting appropriate bit
in probe_ent->dummy_port_mask. The dummy port is used as placeholder
for stolen legacy port. This allows libata to guarantee that
index_of(ap) == ap->port_no == actual_device_port_no, and thus to
remove error-prone ap->hard_port_no.
As it's used only when one port of a legacy controller is reserved by
some other entity (e.g. IDE), the focus is on keeping the added *code*
complexity at minimum, so dummy port allocates all libata core
resources and acts as a normal port. It just has all dummy port_ops.

The following patch enhances libata to allow SAS device drivers
to utilize libata to talk to SATA devices. It introduces some
new APIs which allow libata to be used without allocating a

New APIs:
ata_sas_port_alloc - Allocate an ata_port
ata_sas_port_init - Initialize an ata_port (probe device, etc)
ata_sas_port_destroy - Free an ata_port allocated by ata_sas_port_alloc
ata_sas_slave_configure - configure scsi device
ata_sas_queuecmd - queue a scsi command, similar to ata_scsi_queuecomand
These new APIs can be used either directly by a SAS LLDD or could be used
by the SAS transport class.
Possible usage for a SAS LLDD would be:
scsi_scan_host
target_alloc
ata_sas_port_alloc
slave_alloc
ata_sas_port_init
slave_configure
ata_sas_slave_configure
Commands received by the LLDD for SATA devices would call ata_sas_queuecmd.

Reimplement controller-wide PM. ata_host_set_suspend/resume() are
defined to suspend and resume a host_set. While suspended, EHs for
all ports in the host_set are pegged using ATA_FLAG_SUSPENDED and
frozen.
Because SCSI device hotplug is done asynchronously against the rest of
libata EH and the same mutex is used when adding new device, suspend
cannot wait for hotplug to complete. So, if SCSI device hotplug is in
progress, suspend fails with -EBUSY.
In most cases, host_set resume is followed by device resume. As each
resume operation requires a reset, a single host_set-wide resume
operation may result in multiple resets. To avoid this, resume waits
upto 1 second giving PM to request resume for devices.

including hotplug. This patch reimplements ata_scsi_device_suspend()
and ata_scsi_device_resume() such that they request EH to perform the
respective operations. Both functions synchronize with hotplug such
that it doesn't operate on detached devices.
Suspend waits for completion but resume just issues request and
returns. This allows parallel wake up of devices and thus speeds up
system resume.
Due to sdev detach synchronization, it's not feasible to separate out
EH requesting from sdev handling; thus, ata_device_suspend/resume()
are removed and everything is implemented in the respective

Once a device is put to suspended mode, no EH operations other than
RESUME is allowed on the device. The device will stay suspended till
it gets resumed and thus reset and revalidated. To implement this, a
new device state helper - ata_dev_ready() - is implemented and used in
EH action implementations to make them operate only on attached &
running devices.
If all possible devices on a port are suspended, reset is skipped too.

Currently, the only per-dev EH action is REVALIDATE. EH used to
exploit ehi->dev to do selective revalidation on a ATA bus. However,
this is a bit hacky and makes it impossible to request selective
revalidation from outside of EH or add another per-dev EH action.
This patch adds per-dev EH action mask eh_info->dev_action[] and
update EH to use this field for REVALIDATE. Note that per-dev actions
can still be specified at port-level and it has the same effect of
specifying the action for all devices on the port.

For a legacy ATA controller, libata registers two separate host sets.
There was no connection between the two hosts making it impossible to
traverse all ports related to the controller. This patch adds
host_set->next which points to the second host_set and makes
ata_pci_remove_one() remove all associated host_sets.
* On device removal, all ports hanging off the device are properly
detached. Prior to this patch, ports on the first host_set weren't
detached casuing oops on driver unloading.
* On device removal, both host_sets are properly freed
This will also be used by new power management code to suspend and
resume all ports of a controller. host_set/port representation will
be improved to handle legacy controllers better and this host_set
linking will go away with it.

Implement ATA part of hotplug. To avoid probing broken devices over

are detached only if probing is requested for the device or the
associated port is offline. Also, to avoid infinite probing loop,
Each device is probed only once per EH run.
As SATA PHY status is fragile, devices are detached only after it has
used up its recovery chances unless explicitly requested by LLDD or
user (LLDD may request direct detach if, for example, it supports cold
presence detection).

With hotplug, every reset might be a probing reset and thus something
similar to probe_init() is needed. prereset() method is called before
a series of resets to a port and is the counterpart of postreset().
prereset() can tell EH to use different type of reset or skip reset by
modifying ehc->i.action.
This patch also implements ata_std_prereset(). Most controllers
should be able to use this function directly or with some wrapping.
After hotplug, different controllers need different actions to resume
the PHY and detect the newly attached device. Controllers can be
categorized as follows.
* Controllers which can wait for the first D2H FIS after hotplug.
Note that if the waiting is implemented by polling TF status, there
needs to be a way to set BSY on PHY status change. It can be
implemented by hardware or with the help of the driver.
* Controllers which can wait for the first D2H FIS after sending
COMRESET. These controllers need to issue COMRESET to wait for the
first FIS. Note that the received D2H FIS could be the first D2H
FIS after POR (power-on-reset) or D2H FIS in response to the
COMRESET. Some controllers use COMRESET as TF status
synchronization point and clear TF automatically (sata_sil).
* Controllers which cannot wait for the first D2H FIS reliably.
Blindly issuing SRST to spinning-up device often results in command
issue failure or timeout, causing extended delay. For these
controllers, ata_std_prereset() explicitly waits ATA_SPINUP_WAIT
(currently 8s) to give newly attached device time to spin up, then
issues reset. Note that failing to getting ready in ATA_SPINUP_WAIT
is not critical. libata will retry. So, the timeout needs to be
long enough to spin up most devices.
LLDDs can tell ata_std_prereset() which of above action is needed with
ATA_FLAG_HRST_TO_RESUME and ATA_FLAG_SKIP_D2H_BSY flags. These flags
are PHY-specific property and will be moved to ata_link later.
While at it, this patch unifies function typedef's such that they all
have named arguments.

With hotplug, PHY always needs to be debounced before a reset as any
reset might find new devices. Extract PHY waiting code from
sata_phy_resume() and extend it to include SStatus debouncing. Note
that sata_phy_debounce() is superset of what used to be done inside
sata_phy_resume().
Three default debounce timing parameters are defined to be used by
hot/boot plug. As resume failure during probing will be properly
handled as errors, timeout doesn't have to be long as before.
probeinit() uses the same timeout to retain the original behavior.

Add device persistent field dev->sdev and store the attached SCSI
device. With hotplug, libata needs to know the attached SCSI device
to offline and detach it, but scsi_device_lookup() cannot be used
because libata will reuse SCSI ID numbers - dead but not gone devices
(due to zombie opens, etc...) interfere with the lookup.
dev->sdev doesn't hold reference to the SCSI device. It's cleared
when the SCSI device goes away.

Lifetimes of some fields span over device plugging/unplugging. This
patch moves such persistent fields to the top of ata_device and

ap->eh_context
ata_eh_report() : report the failure to user
ata_eh_recover() : perform recovery actions described in ap->eh_context
ata_eh_finish() : finish failed qcs

struct ata_eh_info serves as the communication channel between
execution path and EH. Execution path describes detected error
condition in ap->eh_info and EH recovers the port using it. To avoid
missing error conditions detected during EH, EH makes its own copy of
eh_info and clears it on entry allowing error info to accumulate
during EH.
Most EH states including EH's copy of eh_info are stored in
ap->eh_context (struct ata_eh_context) which is owned by EH and thus
doesn't require any synchronization to access and alter. This
standardized context makes it easy to integrate various parts of EH
and extend EH to handle multiple links (for PM).

Update ata_scsi_error() for new EH. ata_scsi_error() is responsible
for claiming timed out qcs and invoking ->error_handler in safe and
synchronized manner. As the state of the controller is unknown if a
qc has timed out, the port is frozen in such cases.
Note that ata_scsi_timed_out() isn't used for new EH. This is because
a timed out qc cannot be claimed by EH without freezing the port and
freezing the port in ata_scsi_timed_out() results in unnecessary
abortion of other active qcs. ata_scsi_timed_out() can be removed
once all drivers are converted to new EH.
While at it, add 'TODO: kill' comments to old EH functions.
Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>
Freezing is performed atomic w.r.t. host_set->lock and once frozen
LLDD is not allowed to access the port or any qc on it. Also, libata
makes sure that no new qc gets issued to a frozen port.
A frozen port is thawed after a reset operation completes
successfully, so reset methods must do its job while the port is
frozen. During initialization all ports get frozen before requesting
IRQ, so reset methods are always invoked on a frozen port.
Optional ->freeze and ->thaw operations notify LLDD that the port is
being frozen and thawed, respectively. LLDD can disable/enable
hardware interrupt in these callbacks if the controller's IRQ mask can
be changed dynamically. If the controller doesn't allow such
operation, LLDD can check for frozen state in the interrupt handler
and ack/clear interrupts unconditionally while frozen.

ata_port_schedule_eh() directly schedules EH for @ap without
associated qc. Once EH scheduled, no further qc is allowed and EH
kicks in as soon as all currently active qc's are drained.
ata_port_abort() schedules all currently active commands for EH by
qc_completing them with ATA_QCFLAG_FAILED set. If ata_port_abort()
doesn't find any qc to abort, it directly schedule EH using
ata_port_schedule_eh().
These two functions provide ways to invoke EH for conditions which
aren't directly related to any specfic qc.
Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>
There are several ways a qc can get schedule for EH in new EH. This
patch implements one of them - completing a qc with ATA_QCFLAG_FAILED
set or with non-zero qc->err_mask. ALL such qc's are examined by EH.
New EH schedules a qc for EH from completion iff ->error_handler is
implemented, qc is marked as failed or qc->err_mask is non-zero and
the command is not an internal command (internal cmd is handled via
->post_internal_cmd). The EH scheduling itself is performed by asking
SCSI midlayer to schedule EH for the specified scmd.
For drivers implementing old-EH, nothing changes. As this change
makes ata_qc_complete() rather large, it's not inlined anymore and
__ata_qc_complete() is exported to other parts of libata for later
use.
Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>
New EH framework has clear distinction about who owns a qc. Every qc
starts owned by normal execution path - PIO, interrupt or whatever.
When an exception condition occurs which affects the qc, the qc gets
scheduled for EH. Note that some events (say, link lost and regained,
command timeout) may schedule qc's which are not directly related but
could have been affected for EH too. Scheduling for EH is atomic
w.r.t. ap->host_set->lock and once schedule for EH, normal execution
path is not allowed to access the qc in whatever way. (PIO
synchronization acts a bit different and will be dealt with later)
This patch make ata_qc_from_tag() check whether a qc is active and
owned by normal path before returning it. If conditions don't match,
NULL is returned and thus access to the qc is denied.
__ata_qc_from_tag() is the original ata_qc_from_tag() and is used by
libata core/EH layers to access inactive/failed qc's.
This change is applied only if the associated LLDD implements new EH
as indicated by non-NULL ->error_handler
Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com>
New EH may issue internal commands to recover from error while failed
qc's are still hanging around. To allow such usage, reserve tag
ATA_MAX_QUEUE-1 for internal command. This also makes it easy to tell
whether a qc is for internal command or not. ata_tag_internal() test
implements this test.
To avoid breaking existing drivers, ata_exec_internal() uses
ATA_TAG_INTERNAL only for drivers which implement ->error_handler.
For drivers using old EH, tag 0 is used. Note that this makes
ata_tag_internal() test valid only when ->error_handler is
implemented. This is okay as drivers on old EH should not and does
not have any reason to use ata_tag_internal().

Implement ata_{port|dev}_printk() which prefixes the message with
proper identification string. This change is necessary for later PM

This also helps unifying device id strings. Currently, there are two
forms in use (P is the port number D device number) - 'ataP(D):', and
'ataP: dev D '. These macros also make it harder to forget proper ID

Implement ata_scr_{valid|read|write|write_flush}() and
ata_port_{online|offline}(). These functions replace
scr_{read|write}() and sata_dev_present().
Major difference between between the new SCR functions and the old
ones is that the new ones have a way to signal error to the caller.
This makes handling SCR-available and SCR-unavailable cases in the
same path easier. Also, it eases later PM implementation where SCR
access can fail due to various reasons.
ata_port_{online|offline}() functions return 1 only when they are
affirmitive of the condition. e.g. if SCR is unaccessible or
presence cannot be determined for other reasons, these functions
return 0. So, ata_port_online() != !ata_port_offline(). This
distinction is useful in many exception handling cases.

ata_dev_revalidate() re-reads IDENTIFY PAGE of the given device and
makes sure it's the same device as the configured one. Once it's
verified that it's the same device, @dev is configured according to
newly read IDENTIFY PAGE. Note that revalidation currently doesn't
invoke transfer mode reconfiguration.
Criteria for 'same device'
* same class (of course)
* same model string
* same serial string
* if ATA, same n_sectors (to catch geometry parameter changes)

If a low level driver wants to control max_sectors, it had to adjust
ap->host->max_sectors and set ATA_DFLAG_LOCK_SECTORS to tell
ata_scsi_slave_config not to override the limit. This is not only
cumbersome but also incorrect for hosts which support more than one
devices per port.
This patch adds per-device ->max_sectors. If the field is unset
(zero), libata core layer will adjust ->max_sectors according to
default rules. If the field is set, libata honors the setting.

Implement ata_scsi_timed_out(), to be used as
scsi_host_template->eh_timed_out callback for all libata drivers.
Without this function, the following race exists.
If a qc completes after SCSI timer expires but before libata EH kicks
in, the qc gets completed but the scsicmd still gets passed to libata
EH resulting in ->eng_timeout invocation with NULL qc, which none is
handling properly.
This patch makes sure that scmd and qc share the same lifetime.

Most low level drivers share supported reset/classify actions and
sequence. This patch implements ata_drive_probe_reset() which helps
constructing ->probe_reset from three component operations -

Add new ->probe_reset operation to ata_port_operations obsoleting
->phy_reset. The main difference from ->phy_reset is that the new
operation is not allowed to manipulate libata internals directly.
It's not allowed to configure or disable the port or devices. It can
only succeed or fail and classify attached devices into passed
@classes.
This change gives more control to higher level and eases sharing reset
methods with EH.

qc used to be freed automatically on command completion. However, as
a qc can carry information about its completion status, it can be
useful to its owner/issuer after command completion. This patch makes
freeing qc responsibility of its owner. This simplifies

sensing less hackish.

This patch adds suspend patch to libata, and ata_piix in particular. For
most low level drivers, they should just need to add the 4 hooks to
work. As I can only test ata_piix, I didn't enable it for more
though.
Suspend support is the single most important feature on a notebook, and
most new notebooks have sata drives. It's quite embarrassing that we
_still_ do not support this. Right now, it's perfectly possible to
suspend the drive in mid-transfer.

Other hardware supports ATAPI, but the driver does something nasty such

This patch implements ata_exec_internal() function which performs
libata internal command execution. Previously, this was done by each
user by manually initializing a qc, issueing it, waiting for its
completion and handling errors. In addition to obvious code
factoring, using ata_exec_internal() fixes the following bugs.
* qc not freed on issue failure
* ap->qactive clearing could race with the next internal command
* race between timeout handling and irq
* ignoring error condition not represented in tf->status
Also, qc & hardware are not accessed anymore once it's completed,
making internal commands more conformant with general semantics.
ata_exec_internal() also makes it easy to issue internal commands from
multiple threads if that becomes necessary.
This patch only implements ata_exec_internal(). A following patch
will convert all users.

This will let me chop the code size of several drivers right down. In
many cases the actual private data is very useful and constant for a
given host controller so being able to just pass it at probe time would
be very useful indeed (eg with the via driver would could pass the udma
clocking and reduce the code size, or with the AMD one the UDMA
multiplier and the offset)

Use ata_pad_{alloc,free} in two drivers, to factor out common code.
Add ata_pad_{alloc,free} to two other drivers, which needed the padding
but had not been updated.
The second argument to ata_qc_complete() was being used for two
purposes: communicate the ATA Status register to the completion
function, and indicate an error. On legacy PCI IDE hardware, the latter
is often implicit in the former. On more modern hardware, the driver
often completely emulated a Status register value, passing ATA_ERR as an
indication that something went wrong.
Now that previous code changes have eliminated the need to use drv_stat
arg to communicate the ATA Status register value, we can convert it to a
mask of possible error classes.
This will lead to more flexible error handling in the future.
This is needed for full AMD and VIA drivers and possibly more. Functions
to turn actual clocking and cycle timings into register values. Also to
merge shared timings to compute an optimal timing set.

This redoes the n_ports logic I proposed before as a bitmask.
ata_pci_init_native_mode is now used with a mask allowing for mixed mode
stuff later on. ata_pci_init_legacy_port is called with port number and
does one port now not two. Instead it is called twice by the ata init
logic which cleans both of them up.
There are stil limits in the original code left over
- IRQ/port mapping for legacy mode should be arch specific values
- You can have one legacy mode IDE adapter per PCI root bridge on some systems
- Doesn't handle mixed mode devices yet (but is now a lot closer to it)

ATAPI is getting close to being ready. To increase exposure, we enable
the code in the upstream kernel, but default it to off (present
behavior). Users must pass atapi_enabled=1 as a module option (if
module) or on the kernel command line (if built in) to turn on
discovery of their ATAPI devices.

- where I have made major contributions, updated copyright dates
Interrupts from devices sharing the same IRQ could cause
ata_host_intr to finish commands being processed by atapi_packet_task
if the commands are using ATA_PROT_ATAPI_NODATA or ATA_PROT_ATAPI_DMA
protocol. This is because libata interrupt handler is unaware that
interrupts are not expected during that period. This patch adds
ATA_FLAG_NOINTR flag to tell the interrupt handler that we're not
expecting interrupts.
Note that once proper HSM is implemented for interrupt-driven PIO,
this should be merged into it and this flag will be removed.
ahci.c is a different kind of beast, so it's left alone.

They need this change to work correctly.

Jens Axboe pointed out that the iounmap() call in libata was occurring
too early, and some drivers (ahci, probably others) were using ioremap'd
memory after it had been unmapped.
The patch should address that problem by way of improving the libata
driver API:
* move ->host_stop() call after all ->port_stop() calls have occurred.
* create default helper function ata_host_stop(), and move iounmap()
call there.
* add ->host_stop_prewalk() hook, use it in sata_qstor.c (hi Mark).
sata_qstor appears to require the host-stop-before-port-stop ordering
that existed prior to applying the attached patch.
