Historically word 48 in the identify data was used to mean 32bit I/O
was supported for VLB IDE etc. ATA8 reassigns this word to the Trusted
Computing Group, where it is used for TCG features. This means that
an ATA8 TCG drive is going to trigger 32bit I/O on some systems which
will be funny.
Anyway we need to sort this out ready for ATA8 so:
- Reorder the ata.h header a bit so the ata_version function occurs early
in it
- Make dword_io check the ATA version
- Add an ATA8 version checking TCG presence test
While we are at it the current drafts have a flaw where it may not be
possible to disable TCG features at boot (and opt out of the trusted
model) as TCG intends because it relies on presence of a different
optional feature (DCS). Handle this in software by refusing the TCG
commands if libata.allow_tpm is not set. (We must make it possible
as some environments such as proprietary VDR devices will doubtless
want to use it to lock up content)
Finally as with CPRM print a warning so that the user knows they may
not be able to full access and use the device.

Additionally, libata drivers can define a function

This power management policy will be activated after all

->pmp_read/write() can be called while the port is frozen, so they
must be implemented by polling. This patch supplies several helpers
to ease ->pmp_read/write() implementation.
Also, irq_handler and error_handler must be PMP aware. Most of PMP

In most cases, when EH is scheduled, all in-flight commands are
aborted causing EH to kick in immediately. However, in some cases
(especially with PMP), it's unclear which commands are affected by the
error condition and although aborting all in-flight commands work, it
isn't optimal and may cause unnecessary disruption. On the other
hand, waiting for in-flight commands to drain themselves can take up
to 30seconds.
This patch implements EH fast drain to handle such situations. It
gives in-flight commands some time to finish up but doesn't wait for
too long. After EH is scheduled, fast drain timer is started and if
no other completion occurs in ATA_EH_FASTDRAIN_INTERVAL all in-flight
commands are aborted. If any completion occurred in the interval, the
port is given another interval to finish up itself.
Currently ATA_EH_FASTDRAIN_INTERVAL is 3 secs which should be enough
for finishing up most commands.

SCSI scan may fail due to memory allocation failure even if EH is not

This patch moves SCSI scan failure detetion logic from
ata_scsi_hotplug() to ata_scsi_scan_host() and implement synchronous
scan behavior. The synchronous path sleeps briefly and repeats SCSI
scan if some devices aren't attached properly. It contains robust
retry loop to minimize the chance of device misdetection during boot

This patch reimplements ACPI invocation such that, instead of
exporting ACPI details to the rest of libata, ACPI event handlers -
ata_acpi_on_resume() and ata_acpi_on_devcfg() - are used. These two
functions are responsible for determining whether specific ACPI method
is used and when.
On resume, _GTF is scheduled by setting ATA_DFLAG_ACPI_PENDING device
flag. This is done this way to avoid performing the action on wrong
device device (device swapping while suspended).
On every ata_dev_configure(), ata_acpi_on_devcfg() is called, which
performs _SDD and _GTF. _GTF is performed only after resuming and, if
SATA, hardreset as the ACPI spec specifies. As _GTF may contain
arbitrary commands, IDENTIFY page is re-read after _GTF taskfiles are
executed.
If one of ACPI methods fails, ata_acpi_on_devcfg() retries on the
first failure. If it fails again on the second try, ACPI is disabled
on the device. Note that successful configuration clears ACPI failed
status.
With all feature checks moved to the above two functions,
do_drive_set_taskfiles() is trivial and thus collapsed into
ata_acpi_exec_tfs(), which is now static and converted to return the
number of executed taskfiles to be used by ata_acpi_on_resume(). As
failures are handled properly, ata_acpi_push_id() now returns -errno
on errors instead of unconditional zero.

Now that libata uses sd->manage_start_stop, libata spins down disk on
shutdown. In an attempt to compensate libata's previous shortcoming,
some distros sync and spin down disks attached via libata in their
shutdown(8). Some disks spin back up just to spin down again on
STANDBYNOW1 if the command is issued when the disk is spun down, so
this double spinning down causes problem.
This patch implements module parameter libata.spindown_compat which,
when set to one (default value), prevents libata from spinning down
disks on shutdown thus avoiding double spinning down. Note that
libata spins down disks for suspend to mem and disk, so with
libata.spindown_compat set to one, disks should be properly spun down
in all cases without modifying shutdown(8).
shutdown(8) should be fixed eventually. Some drive do spin up on
SYNCHRONZE_CACHE even when their cache is clean. Those disks
currently spin up briefly when sd tries to shutdown the device and
then the machine powers off immediately, which can't be good for the
head. We can't skip SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE during shudown as it can be
dangerous data integrity-wise.
So, this spindown_compat parameter is already scheduled for removal by
the end of the next year and here's what shutdown(8) should do.
* Check whether /sys/modules/libata/parameters/spindown_compat
exists. If it does, write 0 to it.
* For each libata harddisk {
* Check whether /sys/class/scsi_disk/h:c:i:l/manage_start_stop
exists. Iff it doesn't, synchronize cache and spin the disk
down as before.
}
The above procedure will make shutdown(8) work properly with kernels
before this change, ones with this workaround and later ones without
it.
To accelerate shutdown(8) updates, if the compat mode is in use, this
patch prints BIG FAT warning for five seconds during shutdown (the
optimal interval to annoy the user just the right amount discovered by
hours of tireless usability testing).

On some controllers (ICHs in piix mode), there is *NO* reliable way to
determine device presence other than issuing IDENTIFY and see how the
transaction proceeds by watching the TF status register.
libata acted this way before irq-pio and phantom devices caused very
little problem but now that IDENTIFY is performed using IRQ drive PIO,
such phantom devices now result in multiple 30sec timeouts during
boot.
This patch implements ATA_FLAG_DETECT_POLLING. If a LLD sets this
flag, libata core issues the initial IDENTIFY in polling mode and if
the initial data transfer fails w/ HSM violation, the port is
considered to be empty thus replicating the old libata and IDE

Pass the work_struct pointer to the work function rather than context data.
The work function can use container_of() to work out the data.
For the cases where the container of the work_struct may go away the moment the
pending bit is cleared, it is made possible to defer the release of the
structure by deferring the clearing of the pending bit.
To make this work, an extra flag is introduced into the management side of the
work_struct. This governs auto-release of the structure upon execution.
Ordinarily, the work queue executor would release the work_struct for further
scheduling or deallocation by clearing the pending bit prior to jumping to the
work function. This means that, unless the driver makes some guarantee itself
that the work_struct won't go away, the work function may not access anything
else in the work_struct or its container lest they be deallocated.. This is a
problem if the auxiliary data is taken away (as done by the last patch).
However, if the pending bit is *not* cleared before jumping to the work
function, then the work function *may* access the work_struct and its container
with no problems. But then the work function must itself release the
work_struct by calling work_release().
In most cases, automatic release is fine, so this is the default. Special
initiators exist for the non-auto-release case (ending in _NAR).
