      libata: kill ATA_LFLAG_SKIP_D2H_BSY · 8cebf274
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Some controllers can't reliably record the initial D2H FIS after SATA
      link is brought online for whatever reason.  Advanced controllers
      which don't have traditional TF register based interface often have
      this problem as they don't really have the TF registers to update
      while the controller and link are being initialized.
      
      SKIP_D2H_BSY works around the problem by skipping the wait for device
      readiness before issuing SRST, so for such controllers libata issues
      SRST blindly and hopes for the best.
      
      Now that libata defaults to hardreset, this workaround is no longer
      necessary.  For controllers which have support for hardreset, SRST is
      never issued by itself.  It is only issued as follow-up SRST for
      device classification and PMP initialization, so there's no need to
      wait for it from prereset.

      libata: prefer hardreset · cf480626
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      When both soft and hard resets are available, libata preferred
      softreset till now.  The logic behind it was to be softer to devices;
      however, this doesn't really help much.  Rationales for the change:
      
      * BIOS may freeze lock certain things during boot and softreset can't
        unlock those.  This by itself is okay but during operation PHY event
        or other error conditions can trigger hardreset and the device may
        end up with different configuration.
      
        For example, after a hardreset, previously unlockable HPA can be
        unlocked resulting in different device size and thus revalidation
        failure.  Similar condition can occur during or after resume.
      
      * Certain ATAPI devices require hardreset to recover after certain
        error conditions.  On PATA, this is done by issuing the DEVICE RESET
        command.  On SATA, COMRESET has equivalent effect.  The problem is
        that DEVICE RESET needs its own execution protocol.
      
        For SFF controllers with bare TF access, it can be easily
        implemented but more advanced controllers (e.g. ahci and sata_sil24)
        require specialized implementations.  Simply using hardreset solves
        the problem nicely.
      
      * COMRESET initialization sequence is the norm in SATA land and many
        SATA devices don't work properly if only SRST is used.  For example,
        some PMPs behave this way and libata works around by always issuing
        hardreset if the host supports PMP.
      
        Like the above example, libata has developed a number of mechanisms
        aiming to promote softreset to hardreset if softreset is not going
        to work.  This approach is time consuming and error prone.
      
        Also, note that, dependingon how you read the specs, it could be
        argued that PMP fan-out ports require COMRESET to start operation.
        In fact, all the PMPs on the market except one don't work properly
        if COMRESET is not issued to fan-out ports after PMP reset.
      
      * COMRESET is an integral part of SATA connection and any working
        device should be able to handle COMRESET properly.  After all, it's
        the way to signal hardreset during reboot.  This is the most used
        and recommended (at least by the ahci spec) method of resetting
        devices.
      
      So, this patch makes libata prefer hardreset over softreset by making
      the following changes.
      
      * Rename ATA_EH_RESET_MASK to ATA_EH_RESET and use it whereever
        ATA_EH_{SOFT|HARD}RESET used to be used.  ATA_EH_{SOFT|HARD}RESET is
        now only used to tell prereset whether soft or hard reset will be
        issued.
      
      * Strip out now unneeded promote-to-hardreset logics from
        ata_eh_reset(), ata_std_prereset(), sata_pmp_std_prereset() and
        other places.

      libata: eliminate the home grown dma padding in favour of · dde20207
      James Bottomley 提交于
      that provided by the block layer
      
      ATA requires that all DMA transfers begin and end on word boundaries.
      Because of this, a large amount of machinery grew up in ide to adjust
      scatterlists on this basis.  However, as of 2.5, the block layer has a
      dma_alignment variable which ensures both the beginning and length of a
      DMA transfer are aligned on the dma_alignment boundary.  Although the
      block layer does adjust the beginning of the transfer to ensure this
      happens, it doesn't actually adjust the length, it merely makes sure
      that space is allocated for transfers beyond the declared length.  The
      upshot of this is that scatterlists may be padded to any size between
      the actual length and the length adjusted to the dma_alignment safely
      knowing that memory is allocated in this region.
      
      Right at the moment, SCSI takes the default dma_aligment which is on a
      512 byte boundary.  Note that this aligment only applies to transfers
      coming in from user space.  However, since all kernel allocations are
      automatically aligned on a minimum of 32 byte boundaries, it is safe to
      adjust them in this manner as well.
      
      tj: * Adjusting sg after padding is done in block layer.  Make libata
            set queue alignment correctly for ATAPI devices and drop broken
            sg mangling from ata_sg_setup().

      sata_sil24: freeze on non-dev errors reported via CERR · c2e14f11
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      CERR reports errors detected during executing a command.  This doesn't
      mean the error is tied to the command and can be recovered by just
      issuing it again.  Many of the errors are fatal port-wide connditions
      including HSM violation, host bus error and ATA bus error and require
      freezing and port reset.
      
      The freezing part wasn't implemented previously.  This used to be okay
      because port resets were scheduled anyway and EH eventually resets and
      recovers the port.  With PMP support added, this is no longer true.
      The error condition and recover actions are attributed to the fan-out
      port and the host port condition isn't properly recovered leading to
      EH failures.
      
      This patch makes CERR errors which require resets to freeze the port.
      This will force host port reset and proper recovery.

      libata: use ata_exec_internal() for PMP register access · b06ce3e5
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      PMP registers used to be accessed with dedicated accessors ->pmp_read
      and ->pmp_write.  During reset, those callbacks are called with the
      port frozen so they should be able to run without depending on
      interrupt delivery.  To achieve this, they were implemented polling.
      
      However, as resetting the host port makes the PMP to isolate fan-out
      ports until SError.X is cleared, resetting fan-out ports while port is
      frozen doesn't buy much additional safety.
      
      This patch updates libata PMP support such that PMP registers are
      accessed using regular ata_exec_internal() mechanism and kills
      ->pmp_read/write() callbacks.  The following changes are made.
      
      * PMP access helpers - sata_pmp_read_init_tf(), sata_pmp_read_val(),
        sata_pmp_write_init_tf() are folded into sata_pmp_read/write() which
        are now standalone PMP register access functions.
      
      * sata_pmp_read/write() returns err_mask instead of rc.  This is
        consistent with other functions which issue internal commands and
        allows more detailed error reporting.
      
      * ahci interrupt handler is modified to ignore BAD_PMP and
        spurious/illegal completion IRQs while reset is in progress.  These
        conditions are expected during reset.

      libata-pmp-prep: implement ops->qc_defer() · 31cc23b3
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Controllers which support PMP have various restrictions on which
      combinations of commands are allowed to what number of devices
      concurrently.  This patch implements ops->qc_defer() which determines
      whether a qc can be issued at the moment or should be deferred.
      
      If the function returns ATA_DEFER_LINK, the qc will be deferred until
      a qc completes on the link.  If ATA_DEFER_PORT, until a qc completes
      on any link.  The defer conditions are advisory and in general
      ATA_DEFER_LINK can be considered as lower priority deferring than
      ATA_DEFER_PORT.
      
      ops->qc_defer() replaces fixed ata_scmd_need_defer().  For standard
      NCQ/non-NCQ exclusion, ata_std_qc_defer() is implemented.  ahci and
      sata_sil24 are converted to use ata_std_qc_defer().
      
      ops->qc_defer() is heavier than the original mechanism because full qc
      is prepped before determining to defer it, but various information is
      needed to determine defer conditinos and fully translating a qc is the
      only way to supply such information in generic manner.
      
      IMHO, this shouldn't cause any noticeable performance issues as
      
      * for most cases deferring occurs rarely (except for NCQ-aware
        cmd-switching PMP)
      * translation itself isn't that expensive
      * once deferred the command won't be repeated until another command
        completes which usually is a very long time cpu-wise.

      * host->irq/irq2 are there just for reporting and hacky.

      helper to ease reporting of a PCI BAR or an offsetted address into it.
      
      LLD pushes whatever description it wants using the above two
      functions.  The accumulated description is printed on host
      registration after "[S/P]ATA max MAX_XFERMODE ".
      
      SFF init helpers and ata_host_activate() automatically add
      descriptions for addresses and irq respectively, so only LLDs which
      isn't standard SFF need to add custom descriptions.  In many cases,
      such controllers need to report different things anyway.

      libata-link: introduce ata_link · 9af5c9c9
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Introduce ata_link.  It abstracts PHY and sits between ata_port and
      ata_device.  This new level of abstraction is necessary to support
      SATA Port Multiplier, which basically adds a bunch of links (PHYs) to
      a ATA host port.  Fields related to command execution, spd_limit and
      EH are per-link and thus moved to ata_link.
      
      This patch only defines the host link.  Multiple link handling will be
      added later.  Also, a lot of ap->link derefences are added but many of
      them will be removed as each part is converted to deal directly with
      ata_link instead of ata_port.
      
      This patch introduces no behavior change.

      sata_sil24: fix IRQ clearing race when PCIX_IRQ_WOC is used · 228f47b9
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      When PCIX_IRQ_WOC is used, sil24 has an inherent race condition
      between clearing IRQ pending and reading IRQ status.  If IRQ pending
      is cleared after reading IRQ status, there's possibility of lost IRQ.
      If IRQ pending is cleared before reading IRQ status, spurious IRQs
      will occur.
      
      sata_sil24 till now cleared IRQ pending after reading IRQ status thus
      losing IRQs on machines where PCIX_IRQ_WOC was used.  Reverse the
      order and ignore spurious IRQs if PCIX_IRQ_WOC.

      libata-acpi: add ATA_FLAG_ACPI_SATA port flag · 3cadbcc0
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Whether a controller needs IDE or SATA ACPI hierarchy is determined by
      the programming interface of the controller not by whether the
      controller is SATA or PATA, or it supports slave device or not.  This
      patch adds ATA_FLAG_ACPI_SATA port flags which tells libata-acpi that
      the port needs SATA ACPI nodes, and sets the flag for ahci and
      sata_sil24.

      libata: reimplement suspend/resume support using sdev->manage_start_stop · 9666f400
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Reimplement suspend/resume support using sdev->manage_start_stop.
      
      * Device suspend/resume is now SCSI layer's responsibility and the
        code is simplified a lot.
      
      * DPM is dropped.  This also simplifies code a lot.  Suspend/resume
        status is port-wide now.
      
      * ata_scsi_device_suspend/resume() and ata_dev_ready() removed.
      
      * Resume now has to wait for disk to spin up before proceeding.  I
        couldn't find easy way out as libata is in EH waiting for the
        disk to be ready and sd is waiting for EH to complete to issue
        START_STOP.
      
      * sdev->manage_start_stop is set to 1 in ata_scsi_slave_config().
        This fixes spindown on shutdown and suspend-to-disk.

      libata: add deadline support to prereset and reset methods · d4b2bab4
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Add @deadline to prereset and reset methods and make them honor it.
      ata_wait_ready() which directly takes @deadline is implemented to be
      used as the wait function.  This patch is in preparation for EH timing
      improvements.
      
      * ata_wait_ready() never does busy sleep.  It's only used from EH and
        no wait in EH is that urgent.  This function also prints 'be
        patient' message automatically after 5 secs of waiting if more than
        3 secs is remaining till deadline.
      
      * ata_bus_post_reset() now fails with error code if any of its wait
        fails.  This is important because earlier reset tries will have
        shorter timeout than the spec requires.  If a device fails to
        respond before the short timeout, reset should be retried with
        longer timeout rather than silently ignoring the device.
      
        There are three behavior differences.
      
        1. Timeout is applied to both devices at once, not separately.  This
           is more consistent with what the spec says.
      
        2. When a device passes devchk but fails to become ready before
           deadline.  Previouly, post_reset would just succeed and let
           device classification remove the device.  New code fails the
           reset thus causing reset retry.  After a few times, EH will give
           up disabling the port.
      
        3. When slave device passes devchk but fails to become accessible
           (TF-wise) after reset.  Original code disables dev1 after 30s
           timeout and continues as if the device doesn't exist, while the
           patched code fails reset.  When this happens, new code fails
           reset on whole port rather than proceeding with only the primary
           device.
      
        If the failing device is suffering transient problems, new code
        retries reset which is a better behavior.  If the failing device is
        actually broken, the net effect is identical to it, but not to the
        other device sharing the channel.  In the previous code, reset would
        have succeeded after 30s thus detecting the working one.  In the new
        code, reset fails and whole port gets disabled.  IMO, it's a
        pathological case anyway (broken device sharing bus with working
        one) and doesn't really matter.
      
      * ata_bus_softreset() is changed to return error code from
        ata_bus_post_reset().  It used to return 0 unconditionally.
      
      * Spin up waiting is to be removed and not converted to honor
        deadline.
      
      * To be on the safe side, deadline is set to 40s for the time being.

      libata: convert the remaining SATA drivers to new init model · 4447d351
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Convert ahci, sata_sil, sata_sil24, sata_svw, sata_qstor, sata_mv,
      sata_sx4, sata_vsc and sata_inic162x to new init model.
      
      Now that host and ap are available during intialization, functions are
      converted to take either host or ap instead of low level parameters
      which were inevitable for functions shared between init and other
      paths.  This simplifies code quite a bit.
      
      * init_one()'s now follow more consistent init order
      
      * ahci_setup_port() and ahci_host_init() collapsed into
        ahci_init_one() for init order consistency
      
      * sata_vsc uses port_info instead of setting fields manually
      
      * in sata_svw, k2_board_info converted to port_info (info is now in
        port flags).  port number is honored now.
      
      Tested on ICH7/8 AHCI, jmb360, sil3112, 3114, 3124 and 3132.
