Re: new ata_port_operations for .pmp_{read,write} ?
Mark Lord wrote:
An alternative to all this, might be to expose the "select_pmp()"

..
I wonder if this might be more viable than first thought.
Say the LLD, be it ata_piix or sata_mv or sata_svw, were to provide
an option ata_operations method for "select_pmp_port(pmp)",
which the core could invoke prior to any direct manipulation
of the shadow registers.
It would really only be needed in perhaps three or four places total
(eg. sata_pmp_read/write, and before writes to the ata "ctl" register).
This could be a reasonably tidy way for the core to keep the LLD
abreast of its intent when accessing things.
I really would like to keep the LLD code small, and have good solid
core routines for non-hardware specific functionality. All of this stuff
I'm beginning to do with sata_mv would be trivial if I wanted to bloat
the LLD, but really.. only a tiny bit of it need be custom to sata_mv.
The existing SFF reset/probe/pmp stuff is just about exactly what
sata_mv needs.. and I feel a strong desire to not clone/duplicate
that hard-won functionality.
Much of it I can see being shared with other half-and-half chipset drivers
as we add PMP functionality to those.
Maybe that's just the embedded side me showing through?
It is tricky to define the right interfaces, though, as each chipset
does throw its own unique curve balls at us.
I may prototype this select_pmp_port() concept in sata_mv(),
and see how it works out (or not).

I would definitely like to move away from the model where non-SFF drivers have to emulate SFF in any way. Re-reviewing the code, I don't see a lot of TF accesses outside of SFF-specific code, so we are already in pretty good shape. I think the picture gets more complicated with sata_mv and similar drivers (soon sata_svw, too), because they use the SFF code but only for certain TF protocols. The emulation question is not as clear, with those drivers.

Yeah, this is an interesting problem. There are basically multiple sets of TF registers and the SFF way of assuming single set doesn't really work well and I don't really think adding ->pmp_read/write is the correct long term solution to the problem. We need to confine direct TF register accesses to SFF layer only as controllers which don't implement SFF interface may or may not emulate TF registers and even when they do, it sometimes can't really match the SFF behavior. For command execution, TF write is already performed by qc_prep and issue and TF read back should be performed by LLD if RESULT_TF is set. For EH, the reset methods should be responsible whether or how the TF registers are accessed. Mark, for your case, I think the correct thing to do is to factor out the necessary bare-bone part from SFF implementation and use it with necessary PMP register setup once the necessary change is made to the core layer. The controller is NOT a SFF one and I don't think stretching SFF implementation to fit mv's PMP-aware emulation of it is a good idea. Maybe we can fit libata to it but it's likely we'll need to modify it again to fit different emulation from different vendor. > Is this scenario going to be possible: somebody calls sata_pmp_read() > as part of, say, hotplug polling, and after that operation completes > we then have code that calls ata_check_status() prior to the next > tf_load / command issue ? If so, they'll see the wrong cached shadow > status register. I think what should happen is that any of TF registers isn't accessed behind LLD's back. Then, you don't have nothing to worry about. If the controller emulates some of SFF interface, you can always properly wrap SFF helpers with necessary setup and teardown added. > Mmm.. an amazing amount of complexity there for something that > ought to be very simple. I wish things are a bit clearer now. I think the problem here is that we're assuming SFF TF access on controllers which aren't really SFF.

Tejun, On a related note, I'm now looking into PMP error handling in the driver. The obvious thing I see that I want to fix, is that after a media error on any PMP attached drive, I get this: ata20.00: failed to read SCR 1 (Emask=0x40) ata20.01: failed to read SCR 1 (Emask=0x40) ata20.02: failed to read SCR 1 (Emask=0x40) ata20.03: failed to read SCR 1 (Emask=0x40) ata20.04: failed to read SCR 1 (Emask=0x40) Okay, so those are from sata_pmp_read(), which cannot even issue it's commands because the port was frozen by the EH. Is this expected? I'm not entirely clear what to do in the EH for this driver. The chipset docs say that after just about any kind of error software must do a hard reset of the channel to make it usable again.

So that's using the old IDE drivers. And the network and USB are sharing IRQ#11 with each other. If you are going to be using newer kernels like this (2.6.23+), then you might consider shifting those drives over to libata drivers. This involves a little bit of work -- building a kernel with libata and "ata_piix" built-in instead of the old IDE drivers, and then rearranging /etc/fstab to match the new device names (eg. /dev/sda instead of /dev/hda). But at this point libata is working much better than the old IDE stuff, and it really is worth moving things over if you can.

I kept the calculation as it was before but the '- 3'
is not needed. So it could be fixed and the case N:
should then be updated.
[Thanks to Sergei to not this]
Another note: The warnings were seen with a
make CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y build so they most likely
does not show up duing a typical build due to the inlining performed
by gcc.

ata_ram driver
I've ported the scsi_ram driver [1] to libata. It could use a lot more
work -- there's a lot of stuff in the identify page that I haven't
filled in, and there's a lot of commands it doesn't even try to execute.
For example, when you unload the driver, you get the mildly disturbing
messages:
sd 12:0:0:0: [sdb] Stopping disk
sd 12:0:0:0: [sdb] START_STOP FAILED
sd 12:0:0:0: [sdb] Result: hostbyte=DID_BAD_TARGET
driverbyte=DRIVER_OK,SUGGEST_OK
However, it's still useful at the current stage of development, so I
thought it was worth posting to get some feedback.

Only build tested but looks obviously correct.
I saw this doing a sparc64 build - dunno whit it did not
surface when I sweeped over an x86 64 bit allyesconfig.

I've missed the front part of this thread, but from the above message it sounds like somebody is trying to do hotplug on ICH4/5/6/.. Correct? I have previously worked on ICH5 hotplug for a client. The pieces that were needed there were: 1) Emulate SCR_STATUS reads by reading ICH5 PCS. If it indicates drive presence, return 0x113 for SCR_STATUS, otherwise return zero. 2) PCS seems to work fine for detecting *inserted* drives, but does not find *removed* drives very well. To get it to see unplug events, We had to first clear the port bit in the PCS, wait a usec, then write 0x0003 back into PCS. Then poll PCS for drive present, typically 5-6usec, sometimes longer. If not present, we're done. Otherwise wait for drive !BUSY (~60msec). Ugly as all can be, but it worked. 3) It is critical to ensure that the ATA "ctl" register is never written to when no drive is attached. This means bracketing the SRST sequence to first do a PCS detection before permitting the SRST. If "ctl" is accessed with no drive attached, the machine locks up hard.

Re: [PATCH] libata: automatically use DMADIR if drive/bridge requires it
Mark Lord wrote: Albert Lee wrote: Tejun Heo wrote: Back in 2.6.17-rc2, a libata module parameter was added for atapi_dmadir. That's nice, but most SATA devices which need it will tell us about it in their IDENTIFY PACKET response, as bit-15 of word-62 of the returned data (as per ATA7, ATA8 specifications).

Re: new ata_port_operations for .pmp_{read,write} ?
Mark Lord wrote:
Tejun,
Here's a first cut at this for discussion.
You may prefer different names for the invoking functions
inside libata-pmp.c, rather than simply pmp_read() and pmp_write(),
but I've been up too long and couldn't think of a better name.
An alternative to all this, might be to expose the "select_pmp()"
function shown in the sample code, and have libata-pmp.c call that,
instead of having the new new .pmp_{read,write} functions.
What do you think?
* * *
SATA host controllers which are not purely FIS-based require setup
of a special register to select the active pmp for taskfile accesses.
This can be done in the low-level driver for regular command issue
on a link. But commands directed at a port-multiplier cause problems,
because they leave the original link pmp de-selected afterwards.
To fix this in a sane fashion, without tons of code duplication
from libata into the low-level driver, it is necessary to be able
to wrap the sata_pmp_read() and sata_pmp_write() functions.
This patch provides two new struct ata_port_operations methods for this,
and modifies the code in libata-pmp to use them if provided.
...
Note that, while this does work for sata_mv, I'm still thinking about it.
I'm not totally clear yet (more reading to do) as to how/when
the ATA shadow/taskfile registers get updated to reflect those

It would seem that with other parts of libata-sff directly reading

Mmm.. an amazing amount of complexity there for something that
ought to be very simple.
More reading to do, but comments from Tejun/others are welcomed.
Thanks.
