Tejun Heo a51d644af6 libata: improve AC_ERR_DEV handling for ->post_internal_cmd
->post_internal_cmd is simplified EH for internal commands.  Its
primary mission is to stop the controller such that no rogue memory
access or other activities occur after the internal command is
released.  It may provide error diagnostics by setting qc->err_mask
but this hasn't been a requirement.

To ignore SETXFER failure for CFA devices, libata needs to know
whether a command was failed by the device or for any other reason.
ie. internal command needs to get AC_ERR_DEV right.

This patch makes the following changes to AC_ERR_DEV handling and
->post_internal_cmd semantics to accomodate this need and simplify
callback implementation.

1. As long as the correct bits in the result TF registers are set,
   there is no need to set AC_ERR_DEV explicitly.  libata EH core
   takes care of that for both normal and internal commands.

2. The only requirement for ->post_internal_cmd() is to put the
   controller into quiescent state.  It needs not to set any err_mask.

3. ata_exec_internal_sg() performs minimal error analysis such that
   AC_ERR_DEV is automatically set as long as result_tf is filled
   correctly.

Tejun Heo 17199b187b ahci: move port_map handling to ahci_save_initial_config()
Move cross checking between port_map and cap.n_ports into
ahci_save_initial_config().  After save_initial_config is done,
hpriv->port_map is always setup properly.

Tested on JMB363, ICH7 and ICH8 (with dummy ports).

Tejun Heo d447df140d ahci: implement ata_save/restore_initial_config()
There are several registers which describe how the controller is
configured.  These registers are sometimes implemented as r/w
registers which are configured by firmware and get cleared on
controller reset or after suspend/resume cycle.  ahci saved and
restored those values inside ahci_reset_controller() which is a bit
messy and doesn't work over suspend/resume cycle.

This patch implements ahci_save/restore_initial_config().  The save
function is called during driver initialization and saves cap and
port_map to hpriv.  The restore function is called after the
controller is reset to restore the initial values.

Sometimes the initial firmware values are inconsistent and need to be
fixed up.  This is handled by ahci_save_initial_config().  For this,
there are two versions of saved registers.  One to write back to the
hardware register, the other to use during driver operation.  This is
necessary to keep ahci's behavior unchanged (write back fixed up
port_map while keeping cap as-is).

This patch makes ahci save the register values once before the first
controller reset, not after it's been reset.  Also, the same stored
values are used written back after each reset, so the register values
are properly recovered after suspend/resume cycle.

Conke Hu 55a61604cd ahci.c: walkaround for SB600 SATA internal error issue
There is a HW issue in ATI SB600 SATA that PxSERR.E should not be
set on some conditions, for example, when there is no media in SATA
CD/DVD drive or media is not ready, AHCI controller fails to execute
ATAPI commands and reports PORT_IRQ_TF_ERR, but ATI SB600 SATA
controller sets PxSERR.E at the
same time, which is not necessary.
    This patch is just to ignore the INTERNAL ERROR in such case.
Without this patch, ahci error handler will report many errors as
below:

SDB FIS containing spurious NCQ completions is a clear protocol
violation.  Currently, only some Maxtors with early firmware revisions
are showing this problem.  Those firmwares have other NCQ related
problems including buggy NCQ error reporting and occasional lock up
after NCQ errors.

Consider spurious NCQ completions HSM violation and freeze the port
after it.  EH will turn off NCQ after this happens several times.
Eventually drives which show this behavior should be blacklisted for
NCQ.

Tim Schmielau cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

Tejun Heo 24dc5f33ea libata: update libata LLDs to use devres
Update libata LLDs to use devres.  Core layer is already converted to
support managed LLDs.  This patch simplifies initialization and fixes
many resource related bugs in init failure and detach path.  For
example, all converted drivers now handle ata_device_add() failure
gracefully without excessive resource rollback code.

As most resources are released automatically on driver detach, many
drivers don't need or can do with much simpler ->{port|host}_stop().
In general, stop callbacks are need iff port or host needs to be given
commands to shut it down.  Note that freezing is enough in many cases
and ports are automatically frozen before being detached.

Tejun Heo 07c53dac49 ahci: don't enter slumber on power down
Some ATA/ATAPI devices act weirdly after the link is put into slumber
mode.  Some hang completely requiring physical power removal while
others fail to wake up till the link is hardreset a couple of times.

The addition of slumber on power down was never driven by real need.
It just followed what ahci spec said literally.  The spec itself seems
faulty in that it doesn't consider devices (not controllers) which
don't support link powersaving mode.

Theory never matches reality when it comes to dark allys of cheap
ATA/ATAPI world.  It's just unrealistic to expect vendors to test
rarely used link powersaving feature rigorously.  This patch makes
ahci more friendly to the coldness of reality.

This shouldn't have any negative effect - when suspend operation
succeeds, we power off the whole machine; otherwise, we wake up
everything.  I can't see any reason to be so elaborate with powering
down the link in the first place.

Tejun Heo 8e16f94122 [PATCH] ahci: do not powerdown during initialization
ahci_init_controller() calls ahci_deinit_port() to make sure the
controller is stopped before initializing the controller.  In turn,
ahci_deinit_port() invokes ahci_power_down() to power down the port.
If the controller supports slumber mode, the link is put into it.

Unfortunately, some devices don't implement link powersaving mode
properly and show erratic behavior after link is put into slumber
mode.  For example, HL-DT-ST DVD-RAM GSA-H30N completely locks up on
slumber transition and can only be recovered with the *REAL* hard
reset - power removal and reapply.

Note that this makes the first probing reset different from all
others.  If the above dvd-ram is hotplugged after ahci is initialized,
no problem occurs because ahci is already fully initialized with phy
powered up.  So, this might also be the reason for other weird AHCI
initial probing abnormalities.

This patch moves power up/down out of port init/deinit and call them
only when needed.

Power down is now called only when suspending.  As system suspend
usually involves powering down 12v for storage devices, this shouldn't
cause problem even if the attached device doesn't support slumber
mode.  However, in partial power management and suspend failure cases,
devices might lock up after suspend attempt.  I thought about removing
transition to slumber mode altogether but ahci spec mandates it before
HBA D3 state transition.  Blacklisting such devices might be the
solution.

Tejun Heo 4166955335 [PATCH] ahci: ignore PORT_IRQ_IF_ERR on JMB controllers
JMicron AHCI controllers set PORT_IRQ_IF_ERR on device errors.  The
IRQ status bit indicates interface error or protocol mismatch and ahci
driver interprets it into AC_ERR_ATA_BUS.  So, whenever an ATAPI
device raises check condition, ahci interprets it as ATA bus error and
thus resets it which, in turn, raises check condition thus creating a
reset loop and rendering the device unuseable.

This patch makes JMB controllers ignore PORT_IRQ_IF_ERR when
interpreting error condition.

Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.

Jeff Garzik cca3974e48 libata: Grand renaming.
The biggest change is that ata_host_set is renamed to ata_host.

* ata_host_set			=> ata_host
* ata_probe_ent->host_flags	=> ata_probe_ent->port_flags
* ata_probe_ent->host_set_flags	=> ata_probe_ent->_host_flags
* ata_host_stats		=> ata_port_stats
* ata_port->host		=> ata_port->scsi_host
* ata_port->host_set		=> ata_port->host
* ata_port_info->host_flags	=> ata_port_info->flags
* ata_(.*)host_set(.*)\(\)	=> ata_\1host\2()

The leading underscore in ata_probe_ent->_host_flags is to avoid
reusing ->host_flags for different purpose.  Currently, the only user
of the field is libata-bmdma.c and probe_ent itself is scheduled to be
removed.

ata_port->host is reused for different purpose but this field is used
inside libata core proper and of different type.
