[PATCH] libata-hp-prep: add prereset() method and implement ata_std_prereset() With hotplug, every reset might be a probing reset and thus something similar to probe_init() is needed. prereset() method is called before a series of resets to a port and is the counterpart of postreset(). prereset() can tell EH to use different type of reset or skip reset by modifying ehc->i.action. This patch also implements ata_std_prereset(). Most controllers should be able to use this function directly or with some wrapping. After hotplug, different controllers need different actions to resume the PHY and detect the newly attached device. Controllers can be categorized as follows. * Controllers which can wait for the first D2H FIS after hotplug. Note that if the waiting is implemented by polling TF status, there needs to be a way to set BSY on PHY status change. It can be implemented by hardware or with the help of the driver. * Controllers which can wait for the first D2H FIS after sending COMRESET. These controllers need to issue COMRESET to wait for the first FIS. Note that the received D2H FIS could be the first D2H FIS after POR (power-on-reset) or D2H FIS in response to the COMRESET. Some controllers use COMRESET as TF status synchronization point and clear TF automatically (sata_sil). * Controllers which cannot wait for the first D2H FIS reliably. Blindly issuing SRST to spinning-up device often results in command issue failure or timeout, causing extended delay. For these controllers, ata_std_prereset() explicitly waits ATA_SPINUP_WAIT (currently 8s) to give newly attached device time to spin up, then issues reset. Note that failing to getting ready in ATA_SPINUP_WAIT is not critical. libata will retry. So, the timeout needs to be long enough to spin up most devices. LLDDs can tell ata_std_prereset() which of above action is needed with ATA_FLAG_HRST_TO_RESUME and ATA_FLAG_SKIP_D2H_BSY flags. These flags are PHY-specific property and will be moved to ata_link later. While at it, this patch unifies function typedef's such that they all have named arguments.

libata: add deadline support to prereset and reset methods 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: put some intelligence into EH speed down sequence The current EH speed down code is more of a proof that the EH framework is capable of adjusting transfer speed in response to error. This patch puts some intelligence into EH speed down sequence. The rules are.. * If there have been more than three timeout, HSM violation or unclassified DEV errors for known supported commands during last 10 mins, NCQ is turned off. * If there have been more than three timeout or HSM violation for known supported command, transfer mode is slowed down. If DMA is active, it is first slowered by one grade (e.g. UDMA133->100). If that doesn't help, it's slowered to 40c limit (UDMA33). If PIO is active, it's slowered by one grade first. If that doesn't help, PIO0 is forced. Note that this rule does not change transfer mode. DMA is never degraded into PIO by this rule. * If there have been more than ten ATA bus, timeout, HSM violation or unclassified device errors for known supported commands && speeding down DMA mode didn't help, the device is forced into PIO mode. Note that this rule is considered only for PATA devices and is pretty difficult to trigger. One error can only trigger one rule at a time. After a rule is triggered, error history is cleared such that the next speed down happens only after some number of errors are accumulated. This makes sense because now speed down is done in bigger stride. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers 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.

libata: clean up SFF init mess The intention of using port_mask in SFF init helpers was to eventually support exoctic configurations such as combination of legacy and native port on the same controller. This never became actually necessary and the related code always has been subtly broken one way or the other. Now that new init model is in place, there is no reason to make common helpers capable of handling all corner cases. Exotic cases can simply dealt within LLDs as necessary. This patch removes port_mask handling in SFF init helpers. SFF init helpers don't take n_ports argument and interpret it into port_mask anymore. All information is carried via port_info. n_ports argument is dropped and always two ports are allocated. LLD can tell SFF to skip certain port by marking it dummy. Note that SFF code has been treating unuvailable ports this way for a long time until recent breakage fix from Linus and is consistent with how other drivers handle with unavailable ports. This fixes 1-port legacy host handling still broken after the recent native mode fix and simplifies SFF init logic. The following changes are made... * ata_pci_init_native_host() and ata_init_legacy_host() both now try to initialized whatever they can and mark failed ports dummy. They return 0 if any port is successfully initialized. * ata_pci_prepare_native_host() and ata_pci_init_one() now doesn't take n_ports argument. All info should be specified via port_info array. Always two ports are allocated. * ata_pci_init_bmdma() exported to be used by LLDs in exotic cases. * port_info handling in all LLDs are standardized - all port_info arrays are const stack variable named ppi. Unless the second port is different from the first, its port_info is specified as NULL (tells libata that it's identical to the last non-NULL port_info). * pata_hpt37x/hpt3x2n: don't modify static variable directly. Make an on-stack copy instead as ata_piix does. * pata_uli: It has 4 ports instead of 2. Don't use ata_pci_prepare_native_host(). Allocate the host explicitly and use init helpers. It's simple enough. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

libata: eliminate the home grown dma padding in favour of 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(). * Use request->raw_data_len for ATAPI transfer chunk size. * Killed qc->raw_nbytes. * Separated out killing qc->n_iter.
