| * sata_promise: fix 20619 new EH merge errorMikael Pettersson2007-02-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When I merged my 20619 new EH conversion with #libata-upstream I had to manually resolve a conflict, and inadvertently lost pdc_pata_ops' ->post_internal_cmd binding.

| * sata_vsc: refactor vsc_sata_interrupt and hook up error handlingDan Williams2007-02-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Separate sata_vsc interrupt handling into a normal (per-port) path and an error path with the addition of vsc_port_intr and vsc_error_intr respectively. The error path handles interrupt based hotplug events which requires the definition of vsc_freeze and vsc_thaw. Note: vsc_port_intr has a workaround for unexpected interrupts that occur during polled commands. This fixes a regression between 2.6.19 and 2.6.20. Changes in take2: * removed definition of invalid fis bit * let standard ata-error-handling handle the serror register * clear all unhandled interrupts * revert changes to vsc_intr_mask_update (vsc_thaw enables all interrupts) * use unlikely() for the pci-abort and not-our-interrupt cases in vsc_sata_interrupt Changes in take3: * Unify the "add" + "hook-up" patches into this single patch [htejun@gmail.com: clean up comments and suggestions] Cc: Jeremy Higdon <jeremy@sgi.com> Signed-off-by: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
| * sata_sil: ignore and clear spurious IRQs while executing commands by pollingTejun Heo2007-02-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sata_sil used to trigger HSM error if IRQ occurs during polling command. This didn't matter because polling wasn't used in sata_sil. However, as of 2.6.20, all IDENTIFYs are performed by polling and device detection sometimes fails due to spurious IRQ. This patch makes sata_sil ignore and clear spurious IRQ while executing commands by polling. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

| * sata_nv: complain on spurious completion notifiersRobert Hancock2007-02-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recently Tejun wrote a patch to ahci.c to make it raise a HSM violation if the drive attempted to complete a tag that wasn't outstanding. We could run into the same problem with sata_nv ADMA. This adds code to raise a HSM violation error if the controller gives us a notifier tag that isn't outstanding, since the drive may be issuing spurious completions.

| * sata_nv: kill old private BMDMA helper functionsRobert Hancock2007-02-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sata_nv implemented its own copies of the BMDMA helper functions for ADMA, since the ADMA BMDMA status registers are PIO while the other registers are MMIO, and this was the only way to handle this previously. Now that we have iomap support, the standard routines should just work, so use them. The only thing we need to override as far as ADMA and BMDMA is the post_internal_cmd callback, where we should only call ata_post_internal_cmd if we are in port-register mode.

| * ahci: consider SDB FIS containing spurious NCQ completions HSM violation ↵Tejun Heo2007-02-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (regenerated) 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. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

| * libata: s/ap->id/ap->print_id/gTejun Heo2007-02-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ata_port has two different id fields - id and port_no. id is system-wide 1-based unique id for the port while port_no is 0-based host-wide port number. The former is primarily used to identify the ATA port to the user in printk messages while the latter is used in various places in libata core and LLDs to index the port inside the host. The two fields feel quite similar and sometimes ap->id is used in place of ap->port_no, which is very difficult to spot. This patch renames ap->id to ap->print_id to reduce the possibility of such bugs. Some printk messages are adjusted such that id string (ata%u[.%u]) isn't printed twice and/or to use ata_*_printk() instead of hardcoded id format.

| * sata_nv: Use notifier for completion checksRobert Hancock2007-02-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The hardware provides us a notifier register that indicates what command tags have completed. Use this to determine which CPBs to check, rather than blindly checking all active CPBs. This should provide a minor performance win, since if the controller has touched some of these incomplete CPBs, accessing them will likely result in a cache miss.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I was trying to use HDIO_DRIVE_TASK for something today, and discovered that the libata implementation does not copy over the upper four LBA bits from args[6]. This is serious, as any tools using this ioctl would have their commands applied to the wrong sectors on the drive, possibly resulting in disk corruption. Ideally, newer apps should use SG_IO/ATA_16 directly, avoiding this bug. But with libata poised to displace drivers/ide, better compatibility here is a must. This patch fixes libata to use the upper four LBA bits passed in from the ioctl. The original drivers/ide implementation copies over all bits except for the master/slave select bit. With this patch, libata will copy only the four high-order LBA bits, just in case there are assumptions elsewhere in libata (?).

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>

In short, when cpufreq code thinks it confined itself to needed cpu by means of set_cpus_allowed() to execute rdmsr, some "virtual cpu" feature can migrate process to anywhere. This triggers bugons and does wrong things in general. This got fixed by introducing rdmsr_on_cpu and wrmsr_on_cpu executing rdmsr and wrmsr on given physical cpu by means of smp_call_function_single().
