2009-12-03ahci: let users know that Promise PDC42819 support is limited to SATA devicesMark Nelson
ahci can drive the Promise PDC42819, but obviously it can only use SATA disks connected to this controller. The controller can actually support SAS disks as well, but we only know how to use it in it's AHCI mode. Add a message to let users know that because ahci is driving their chip they can only use the SATA disks connected to this controller.

2009-12-03ahci: disable SNotification capability for ich8Shaohua Li
I obseved there is a sata_async_notification() for every ahci interrupt. But the async notification does nothing (this is hard disk drive and no pmp). This cause cpu wastes some time on sntf register access. It appears ICH AHCI doesn't support SNotification register, but the controller reports it does. After quirking it, the async notification disappears. PS. it appears all ICH don't support SNotification register from ICH manual, don't know if we need quirk all ICH. I don't have machines with all kinds of ICH. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shaohua.li@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

2009-10-06ahci: filter FPDMA non-zero offset enable for Aspire 3810TTejun Heo
Curiously, Aspire 3810T issues many SATA feature enable commands via _GTF, of which one is invalid and another is not supported by the drive. In the process, it also enables FPDMA non-zero offset. However, the feature also needs to be supported and enabled from the controller and it's wrong to enable it from _GTF unless the controller can do it by default. Currently, this ends up enabling FPDMA non-zero offset only on the drive side leading to NCQ command failures and eventual disabling of NCQ. This patch makes libata filter out FPDMA non-zero offset enable for the machine.

2009-10-06ahci: display all AHCI 1.3 HBA capability flags (v2)Robert Hancock
Update the AHCI driver to display all of the HBA capabilities defined in the AHCI 1.3 specification. Some of these are in a new CAP2 (HBA Capabilities Extended) register which is only defined on AHCI 1.2 or later. The spec says that undefined registers should always return 0 on read, but to be safe we assume a value of 0 unless the controller reports AHCI version 1.2 or later. The value can also be retrieved through sysfs as with the existing capability field. For example, on an Intel Ibex Peak (PCH) controller: ahci 0000:00:1f.2: flags: 64bit ncq sntf stag pm led clo pmp pio slum part ems sxs apst We don't do anything special with the new flags yet.

2009-09-17ahci: restore pci_intx() handlingTejun Heo
Commit a5bfc4714b3f01365aef89a92673f2ceb1ccf246 dropped explicit pci_intx() manipulation from ahci because it seemed unnecessary and ahci doesn't seem to be the right place to be tweaking it if it were. This was largely okay but there are exceptions. There was one on an embedded platform which was fixed via firmware and now bko#14124 reports it on a HP DL320. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14124 I still think this isn't something libata drivers should be caring about (the only ones which are calling pci_intx() explicitly are libata ones and one other driver) but for now reverting the change seems to be the right thing to do.

2009-09-08dmi: extend dmi_get_year() to dmi_get_date()Tejun Heo
There are cases where full date information is required instead of just the year. Add month and day parsing to dmi_get_year() and rename it to dmi_get_date(). As the original function only required '/' followed by any number of parseable characters at the end of the string, keep that behavior to avoid upsetting existing users. The new function takes dates of format [mm[/dd]]/yy[yy]. Year, month and date are checked to be in the ranges of [1-9999], [1-12] and [1-31] respectively and any invalid or out-of-range component is returned as zero. The dummy implementation is updated accordingly but the return value is updated to indicate field not found which is consistent with how other dummy functions behave.

2009-08-12ahci: add workaround for on-board 5723s on some gigabyte boardsTejun Heo
Some gigabytes have on-board SIMG5723s connected to JMB ahcis. These are used to implement hardware raid. Unfortunately some firmware revisions on these 5723s don't bring the link down when all the downstream ports are unoccupied while not responding to reset protocol which makes libata think that there's device attached to the port but is not responding and retry. This results in painfully wrong boot detection time for these ports when they're empty. This patch quirks those boards such that ahci gives up after the initial timeout. Combined with parallel probing, this gives quick enough probing and also is safe because SIMG5723 will respond to the first try if any of the downstream ports is occupied.

2009-06-10[libata] ahci: Restore SB600 SATA controller 64 bit DMAShane Huang
Community reported one SB600 SATA issue(BZ #9412), which led to 64 bit DMA disablement for all SB600 revisions by driver maintainers with commits c7a42156d99bcea7f8173ba7a6034bbaa2ecb77c and 4cde32fc4b32e96a99063af3183acdfd54c563f0. But the root cause is ASUS M2A-VM system BIOS bug in old revisions like 0901, while forcing into 32bit DMA happens to work as workaround. Now it's time to withdraw 4cde32fc4b32e96a99063af3183acdfd54c563f0 so as to restore the SB600 SATA 64bit DMA capability.

2009-04-06libata: ahci enclosure management bios workaroundDavid Milburn
During driver initialization ahci_start_port may not be able to turn LEDs off because the hardware may still be transmitting a message. And since the BIOS may not be setting the LEDs to off the drive LEDs may end up in a fault state.

There's no need to turn off intx explicitly on msi enable. This is automatically handled by pci. Drop it. This might be needed on machines if the BIOS turns intx off during boot. However, there's no evidence of such behavior for ahci and the only such case seems to be ICH5 PATA according to ata_piix.

Some notebooks from HP have the problem that their BIOSes attempt to spin down hard drives before entering ACPI system states S4 and S5. This leads to a yo-yo effect during system power-off shutdown and the last phase of hibernation when the disk is first spun down by the kernel and then almost immediately turned on and off by the BIOS.

2008-10-27ahci: Add support for Promise PDC42819Mark Nelson
Add an appropriate entry for the Promise PDC42819 controller. It has an AHCI mode and so far works correctly with board_ahci. This chip is found on Promise's FastTrak TX2650 (2 port) and TX4650 (4 port) software-based RAID cards (for which there is a binary driver, t3sas) and can be found on some motherboards, for example the MSI K9A2 Platinum, which calls the chip a Promise T3 controller. Although this controller also supports SAS devices, its default bootup mode is AHCI and the binary driver has to do some magic to get the chip into the appropriate mode to drive SAS disks. Seeing as no documentation is provided by Promise, adding this entry to the ahci driver allows the controller to be useful to people as a SATA controller (with no ill effects on the system if a SAS disk is connected - probing of the port just times out with "link online but device misclassified"), without having to resort to using the binary driver. Users who require SAS or the proprietary software raid can get this functionality using the binary driver.

2008-09-29libata: Implement disk shock protection supportElias Oltmanns
On user request (through sysfs), the IDLE IMMEDIATE command with UNLOAD FEATURE as specified in ATA-7 is issued to the device and processing of the request queue is stopped thereafter until the specified timeout expires or user space asks to resume normal operation. This is supposed to prevent the heads of a hard drive from accidentally crashing onto the platter when a heavy shock is anticipated (like a falling laptop expected to hit the floor). In fact, the whole port stops processing commands until the timeout has expired in order to avoid any resets due to failed commands on another device.

This means a lot of users can't use current kernels and in most distro cases can't even install. This has been going on since March 2008 for the 6121 Marvell, and late 2007 for the 6145!!! This was all pointed out at the time and repeatedly ignored. Bugs assigned to Jeff about this are ignored also. To quote Jeff in email > "Just switch the order of 'ahci' and 'pata_marvell' in > /etc/modprobe.conf, then use Fedora's tools regenerate the initrd. > See? It's not rocket science, and the current configuration can be > easily made to work for Fedora users." (Which isn't trivial, isn't end user, shouldn't be needed, and as it usually breaks at install time is in fact impossible) To quote Jeff in August 2007 > " mv-ahci-pata > Marvell 6121/6141 PATA support. Needs fixing in the 'PATA controller > command' area before it is usable, and can go upstream." Only he add the ids anyway later and caused regressions, adding a further id in March causing more regresions. The actual fix for the moment is very simple. If the user has included the pata_marvell driver let it drive the ports. If they've only selected for SATA support give them the AHCI driver which will run the port a fraction faster. Allow the user to control this decision via ahci.marvell_enable as a module parameter so that distributions can ship 'it works' defaults and smarter users (or config tools) can then flip it over it desired.

2008-08-22ahci: sis controllers actually can do PMPTejun Heo
SIS controllers were blacklisted for PMP as enabling it made device detection fail whether the device was PMP or not - the natural conclusion was the controller chokes on SRST w/ pmp==15. However, it turned out that the controller just didn't like issuing SRST after hardreset w/o clearing SError first. Interestingly, the SRST itself succeeds but the following commands fail. If SError is cleared between hardreset and SRST, which is the default behavior now, everything works fine and SIS controllers work with PMPs happily. Remove PMP blacklisting for SIS AHCIs.
