2009-02-25[libata] pata_legacy: for VLB 32bit PIO don't try tricks with slopAlan Cox
These devices are generally used with ATA anyway and it seems that some ATAPI will need us to issue the right number of words. Therefore as we can't switch mid burst on VLB devices we should only use 32bit I/O for suitable block sizes.

2009-02-25[libata] pata_amd: program FIFOAlan Cox
With 32bit PIO we can use the posted write buffers, but only for 32bit I/O cycles. This means we must disable the FIFO for ATAPI where a final 16bit cycle may occur. Rework the FIFO logic so that we disable the FIFO then selectively re-enable it when we set the timings on AMD devices. Also fix a case where we scribbled on PCI config 0x41 of Nvidia chips when we shouldn't.

2009-02-25sata_mv: fix SoC interrupt breakageMark Lord
For some reason, sata_mv doesn't clear interrupt status during init when it's running on an SoC host adapter. If the bootloader has touched the SATA controller before starting Linux, Linux can end up enabling the SATA interrupt with events pending, which will cause the interrupt to be marked as spurious and then be disabled, which then breaks all further accesses to the controller. This patch makes the SoC path clear interrupt status on init like in the non-SoC case.

2009-02-25pata_it821x: resume from hibernation fails with RAID volumeOndrej Zary
Hibernation didn't work for me since I started to use IT8212 controller. I did some debugging (booting with no_console_suspend init=/bin/sh). Found that resume fails (2.6.28) with "serial number mismatch 'some garbage' != 'some other garbage'" and "revalidation failed" messages. That's because the controller firmware fills different serial number in the IDENTIFY every boot. The patch below fixes the resume simply clearing the serial number. The proper fix would be probably to fill in the serial number of the RAID volume instead. I assume that there must be something like that stored on the drives but I don't know where. Fix resume on pata_it821x RAID volume by clearing the serial number in IDENTIFY data, which is otherwise different on each boot.

2009-02-16libata-sff: fix 32-bit PIO ATAPI regressionSergei Shtylyov
Commit 871af1210f13966ab911ed2166e4ab2ce775b99d (libata: Add 32bit PIO support) has caused all kinds of errors on the ATAPI devices, so it has been empirically proven that one shouldn't try to read/write an extra data word when a device is not expecting it already. "Don't do it then"; however, still use a chance to do 32-bit read/write one last time when there are exactly 3 trailing bytes. Oh, and stop pointlessly swapping the bytes to and fro on big-endian machines by using io*_rep() accessors which shouldn't byte-swap. This patch should fix the kernel.org bug #12609.

2009-02-02libata: implement HORKAGE_1_5_GBPS and apply it to WD My BookTejun Heo
3Gbps is often much more prone to transmission failures. It's usually okay to let EH handle speed down after transmission failures but some WD My Book drives completely shutdown after certain transmission failures and after it only power cycling can revive them. Combined with the fact that external drives often end up with cable assembly which is longer than usual and more likely to have intervening gender, this makes these drives very likely to shutdown under certain configurations virtually rendering them unusable. This patch implements HOARKGE_1_5_GBPS and applies it to WD My Book such that 1.5Gbps is forced once the device is identified. Please take a look at the following bz for related reports. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9913 Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
2009-02-02libata: add no penalty retry request for EH device handling routinesTejun Heo
Let -EAGAIN from EH device handling routines trigger EH retry without consuming its tries count. This will be used to implement link SPD horkage which requires hardreset to adjust SPD without affecting other EH decisions. As it bypasses the forward progress guarantee provided by the tries count, the requester is responsible for ensuring forward progress.

2009-02-02libata: improve probe failure handlingTejun Heo
When link is flaky at high speed, it isn't uncommon for a device to repeatedly fail probing sequence early after successfully negotiating high link speed. This often leads to consecutive hotplug events without successful probing. This patch improves libata EH such that it remembers probing trials and if there have been more than two unsuccessful trials in the past 60 seconds, slows down link speed to 1.5Gbps. As link speed negotiation is the duty of the PHY layer proper, the goal of this fallback mechanism is to provide the last resort when everything else fails, which unfortunately happens not too infrequently, so no fancy 6->3->1.5 speeding down or highest successful transmission speed seen kind of logics (yet).

2009-02-02libata: clear dev->ering in smarter wayTejun Heo
dev->ering used to be cleared together with the rest of ata_device in ata_dev_init() which is called whenever a probing event occurs. dev->ering is about to be used to track probing failures so it needs to remain persistent over multiple porbing events. This patch achieves this by doing the following. * Instead of CLEAR_OFFSET, define CLEAR_BEGIN and CLEAR_END and only clear between BEGIN and END. ering is moved after END. The split of persistent area is to allow hotter items remain at the head. * ering is explicitly cleared on ata_dev_disable() and when device attach succeeds. So, ering is persistent throug a device's life time (unless explicitly cleared of course) and also through periods inbetween disablement of an attached device and successful detection of the next one.

2009-01-27SATA PIIX: Blacklist system that spins off disks during ACPI power offRafael J. Wysocki
Some notebooks from HP have the problem that their BIOSes attempt to spin down hard drives before entering ACPI system states S4 and S5. This leads to a yo-yo effect during system power-off shutdown and the last phase of hibernation when the disk is first spun down by the kernel and then almost immediately turned on and off by the BIOS. This, in turn, may result in shortening the disk's life times. To prevent this from happening we can blacklist the affected systems using DMI information.

2009-01-26sata_mv: Properly initialize main irq maskThomas Reitmayr
I noticed that during initialization sata_mv.c assumes that the main interrupt mask has its default value of 0. The function mv_platform_probe(..) initializes a shadow irq mask with 0 assuming that's the value of the controller's register. Now mv_set_main_irq_mask(..) only writes the controller's register if the new value differs from the "shadowed" value. This is fatal when trying to disable all interrupts in mv_init_host(..), i.e. the following function call does not write anything to the main irq mask register: mv_set_main_irq_mask(host, ~0, 0); The effect I see on my machine (QNAP TS-109 II) with booting via kexec (with Linux as a 2nd-stage boot loader) is that if the sata_mv module was still loaded when performing kexec, then the new kernel's sata_mv module starts up with interrupts enabled. This results in an unhandled IRQ and breaks the boot process. The unhandled interrupt itself might also be fixed by Lennert's patch proposed at http://markmail.org/message/kwvzxstnlsa3s26w which I did not try yet. However I still propose to additionally initialize the shadow variable with the current contents of the main irq mask register to get both in sync and allow proper disabling the main irq mask. This fixes the unhandled irq on my machine. Signed-off-by: Thomas Reitmayr <treitmayr@devbase.at> Signed-off-by: Mark Lord <mlord@pobox.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>
