[PATCH] sata_promise: new EH conversion, take 2
This patch converts sata_promise to use new-style libata error handling on Promise SATA chips, for both SATA and PATA ports. * ATA_FLAG_SRST is no longer set * ->phy_reset is no longer set as it is unused when ->error_handler is present, and pdc_sata_phy_reset() has been removed * pdc_freeze() masks interrupts and halts DMA via PDC_CTLSTAT * pdc_thaw() clears interrupt status in PDC_INT_SEQMASK and then unmasks interrupts in PDC_CTLSTAT * pdc_error_handler() reinitialises the port if it isn't frozen, and then invokes ata_do_eh() with standard {s,}ata reset methods * pdc_post_internal_cmd() resets the port in case of errors * the PATA-only 20619 chip continues to use old-style EH: not by necessity but simply because I don't have documentation for it or any way to test it Since the previous version pdc_error_handler() has been rewritten and it now mostly matches ahci and sata_sil24. In case anyone wonders: the call to pdc_reset_port() isn't a heavy-duty reset, it's a light-weight reset to quickly put a port into a sane state. The discussion about the PCI flushes in pdc_freeze() and pdc_thaw() seemed to end with a consensus that the flushes are OK and not obviously redundant, so I decided to keep them for now. This patch was prepared against 2.6.19-git7, but it also applies to 2.6.19 + libata #upstream, with or without the revised sata_promise cleanup patch I recently submitted. This patch does conflict with the #promise-sata-pata patch: this patch removes pdc_sata_phy_reset() while #promise-sata-pata modifies it. The correct patch resolution is to remove the function. Tested on 2037x and 2057x chips, with PATA patches on top and disks on both SATA and PATA ports. Signed-off-by: Mikael Pettersson <mikpe@it.uu.se> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
