      ide: remove broken/dangerous HDIO_[UNREGISTER,SCAN]_HWIF ioctls (take 3) · 93de00fd
      Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz 提交于
      hdparm explicitely marks HDIO_[UNREGISTER,SCAN]_HWIF ioctls as DANGEROUS
      and given the number of bugs we can assume that there are no real users:
      
      * DMA has no chance of working because DMA resources are released by
        ide_unregister() and they are never allocated again.
      
      * Since ide_init_hwif_ports() is used for ->io_ports[] setup the ioctls
        don't work for almost all hosts with "non-standard" (== non ISA-like)
        layout of IDE taskfile registers (there is a lot of such host drivers).
      
      * ide_port_init_devices() is not called when probing IDE devices so:
        - drive->autotune is never set and IDE host/devices are not programmed
          for the correct PIO/DMA transfer modes (=> possible data corruption)
        - host specific I/O 32-bit and IRQ unmasking settings are not applied
          (=> possible data corruption)
        - host specific ->port_init_devs method is not called (=> no luck with
          ht6560b, qd65xx and opti621 host drivers)
      
      * ->rw_disk method is not preserved (=> no HPT3xxN chipsets support).
      
      * ->serialized flag is not preserved (=> possible data corruption when
         using icside, aec62xx (ATP850UF chipset), cmd640, cs5530, hpt366
         (HPT3xxN chipsets), rz1000, sc1200, dtc2278 and ht6560b host drivers).
      
      * ->ack_intr method is not preserved (=> needed by ide-cris, buddha,
        gayle and macide host drivers).
      
      * ->sata_scr[] and sata_misc[] is cleared by ide_unregister() and it
        isn't initialized again (SiI3112 support needs them).
      
      * To issue an ioctl() there need to be at least one IDE device present
        in the system.
      
      * ->cable_detect method is not preserved + it is not called when probing
        IDE devices so cable detection is broken (however since DMA support is
        also broken it doesn't really matter ;-).
      
      * Some objects which may have already been freed in ide_unregister()
        are restored by ide_hwif_restore() (i.e. ->hwgroup).
      
      * ide_register_hw() may unregister unrelated IDE ports if free ide_hwifs[]
        slot cannot be found.
      
      * When IDE host drivers are modular unregistered port may be re-used by
        different host driver that owned it first causing subtle bugs.
      
      Since we now have a proper warm-plug support remove these ioctls,
      then remove no longer needed:
      - ide_register_hw() and ide_hwif_restore() functions
      - 'init_default' and 'restore' arguments of ide_unregister()
      - zeroeing of hwif->{dma,extra}_* fields in ide_unregister()
      
      As an added bonus IDE core code size shrinks by ~3kB (x86-32).
      
      v2:
      * fix ide_unregister() arguments in cleanup_module() (Andrew Morton).
      
      v3:
      * fix ide_unregister() arguments in palm_bk3710.c.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
