    libata: fix attach error handling · 842faa6c
    Tejun Heo 提交于
    New device attach path in ata_eh_revalidate_and_attach() is divided
    into two separate loops because ATA requires IDENTIFY to be issued to
    slave first while the user expects to see device probe messages from
    the master device.  new_mask is used to track which devices are the
    new ones between the first loop and the second.
    
    This usually works well but if an error occurs during configuration
    stage, ata_dev_revalidate_and_attach() returns with error code and
    forgets new_mask.  On the retry run, dev->class is set and new_mask
    for the device is clear, so the device just gets revalidated and thus
    ends up skipping post-configuration procedure including scheduling of
    SCSI_HOTPLUG for the device.  When this occurs, ATA part of probing
    works fine but SCSI probing usually doesn't happen and makes the
    device unreachable.
    
    The behavior has been around for a very long time but it has been
    uncovered with the recent addition of 1_5_GBPS horkage which uses
    -EAGAIN return value from ata_dev_configure() to restart the probing
    sequence after forcing cable speed.
    
    This can be fixed by making sure dev->class is permanently set only
    after all configurations are successfully complete.  Fix it.
