All bmdma-style drivers must implement this hook. This is the low-level
operation that actually copies the data bytes during a PIO data
transfer.
Typically the driver
will choose one of ata_pio_data_xfer_noirq(), ata_pio_data_xfer(), or
ata_mmio_data_xfer().

<para>
The very first step in the probe phase. Actions vary depending
on the bus type, typically. After waking up the device and probing
for device presence (PATA and SATA), typically a soft reset
(SRST) will be performed. Drivers typically use the helper
functions ata_bus_reset() or sata_phy_reset() for this hook.
Many SATA drivers use sata_phy_reset() or call it from within
their own phy_reset() functions.

</programlisting>
<para>
ata_port_freeze() is called when HSM violations or some other
condition disrupts normal operation of the port. A frozen port
is not allowed to perform any operation until the port is
thawed, which usually follows a successful reset.
</para>
<para>
The optional ->freeze() callback can be used for freezing the port
hardware-wise (e.g. mask interrupt and stop DMA engine). If a
port cannot be frozen hardware-wise, the interrupt handler
must ack and clear interrupts unconditionally while the port
is frozen.
</para>
<para>
The optional ->thaw() callback is called to perform the opposite of ->freeze():
prepare the port for normal operation once again. Unmask interrupts,
start DMA engine, etc.
</para>
<programlisting>
void (*error_handler) (struct ata_port *ap);
</programlisting>
<para>
->error_handler() is a driver's hook into probe, hotplug, and recovery
and other exceptional conditions. The primary responsibility of an
implementation is to call ata_do_eh() or ata_bmdma_drive_eh() with a set
of EH hooks as arguments:
</para>
<para>
'prereset' hook (may be NULL) is called during an EH reset, before any other actions
are taken.
</para>
<para>
'postreset' hook (may be NULL) is called after the EH reset is performed. Based on
existing conditions, severity of the problem, and hardware capabilities,
</para>
<para>
Either 'softreset' (may be NULL) or 'hardreset' (may be NULL) will be
called to perform the low-level EH reset.
</para>
<programlisting>
void (*post_internal_cmd) (struct ata_queued_cmd *qc);
</programlisting>
<para>
This is a high level error handling function, called from the
error handling thread, when a command times out. Most newer
hardware will implement its own error handling code here. IDE BMDMA
drivers may use the helper function ata_eng_timeout().
Perform any hardware-specific actions necessary to finish processing
after executing a probe-time or EH-time command via ata_exec_internal().
