This patch implements ATA_FLAG_SETXFER_POLLING and use in pata_via.
If this flag is set, transfer mode setting performed by polling not by
interrupt. This should help those controllers which raise interrupt
before the command is actually complete on SETXFER.
Rationale for this approach.
* uses existing facility and relatively simple
* no busy sleep in the interrupt handler
* updating drivers is easy
While at it, kill now unused flag ATA_FLAG_SRST in pata_via.

libata didn't initialize result_tf.flags which indicates transfer type
(RW/FUA) and address type (CHS/LBA/LBA48). ata_gen_fixed_sense()
assumed result_tf.flags equals command tf.flags and failed to report
the first failed block to SCSI layer because zero tf flags indicates
CHS and bad block reporting for CHS is not implemented.
Implement fill_result_tf() which sets result_tf.flags to command
tf.flags and use it to fill result_tf.

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
behavior.

Many drives support LBA48 even when its capacity is smaller than
1<<28, as LBA48 is required for many functionalities. FLUSH_EXT is
mandatory for drives w/ LBA48 support.
Interestingly, at least one of such drives (ST960812A) has problems
dealing with FLUSH_EXT. It eventually completes the command but takes
around 7 seconds to finish in many cases thus drastically slowing down
IO transactions. This seems to be a firmware bug which sneaked into
production probably because no other ATA driver including linux IDE
issues FLUSH_EXT to drives which report support for LBA48 & FLUSH_EXT
but is smaller than 1<<28 blocks.
This patch adds ATA_DFLAG_FLUSH_EXT which is set iff the drive
supports LBA48 & FLUSH_EXT and is larger than LBA28 limit. Both cache
flush paths are updated to issue FLUSH_EXT only when the flag is set.
Note that the changed behavior is more inline with the rest of libata.
libata prefers shorter commands whenever possible.

libata EH used to perform ata_set_mode() iff the EH session performed
reset as indicated by ATA_EHI_DID_RESET. This is incorrect because
->dev_config() called by revalidation is allowed to modify transfer
mode which ata_set_mode() should take care of. This patch implements
the following two flags.
* ATA_EHI_SETMODE: set during EH to schedule ata_set_mode(). Both new
device attachment and revalidation set this flag.
* ATA_EHI_POST_SETMODE: set while the device is revalidated after
ata_set_mode(). Post-setmode revalidation is different from initial
configuaration and EH revalidation in that ->dev_config() is not
allowed tune transfer mode. LLD can use this flag to determine
whether it's allowed to tune transfer mode. Note that POST_SETMODE
->dev_config() is guaranteed to be preceded by non-POST_SETMODE
->dev_config().

Implement ehi flag ATA_EHI_PRINTINFO. This flag is set when device
configuration needs to print out device info. This used to be handled

This patch replaces @print_info w/ ATA_EHI_PRINTINFO and make sata_sil

libata waits for !BSY even when the status register reports 0xff.
This causes long boot delays when D8 isn't pulled down properly. This
patch does the followings.
* don't wait if status register is 0xff in all wait functions
* make ata_busy_sleep() return 0 on success and -errno on failure.
-ENODEV is returned on 0xff status and -EBUSY on other failures.
* make ata_bus_softreset() succeed on 0xff status. 0xff status is not
reset failure. It indicates no device. This removes unnecessary
retries on such ports. Note that the code change assumes unoccupied
port reporting 0xff status does not produce valid device signature.

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).

Separate delayable work items from non-delayable work items be splitting them
into a separate structure (delayed_work), which incorporates a work_struct and
the timer_list removed from work_struct.
The work_struct struct is huge, and this limits it's usefulness. On a 64-bit
architecture it's nearly 100 bytes in size. This reduces that by half for the
non-delayable type of event.

When building a monolithic kernel, the load order of drivers does not
work for SAS libata users, resulting in a kernel oops.
Convert libata to use subsys_initcall instead of module_init, which
ensures that libata gets loaded before any LLDD.
This is the same thing that scsi core does to solve the problem. The
load order problem was observed on ipr SAS adapters and should exist for
other SAS users as well.

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.

Our ATA probe code checks that a device is not reporting a diagnostic
failure during start up. Unfortunately at least one device seems to like
doing this - the Gigabyte iRAM.
This is only done for the master right now (which is fine for the iRAM
as it is SATA), as with PATA some combinations of ATAPI device seem to
fool the check into seeing a drive that isn't there if it is applied to

Non-uniform ports handling got broken while updating libata to handle
those in the same host. Only separate irq for the non-uniform
secondary port was implemented while all other fields (host flags,
transfer mode...) of the secondary port simply shared those of the
first.
For ata_piix combined mode, which ATM is the only user of non-uniform
ports, this causes the secondary port assume the wrong type. This can
cause PATA port to use SATA ops, which results in bogus check on PCS
and detection failure.
This patch adds ata_probe_ent->pinfo2 which points to optional
port_info for the secondary port. For the time being, this seems to
be the simplest solution. This workaround will be removed together
with ata_probe_ent itself after init model is updated to allow more
flexibility.

The biggest change is that ata_host_set is renamed to ata_host.
* ata_host_set => ata_host
* ata_probe_ent->host_flags => ata_probe_ent->port_flags
* ata_probe_ent->host_set_flags => ata_probe_ent->_host_flags
* ata_host_stats => ata_port_stats
* ata_port->host => ata_port->scsi_host
* ata_port->host_set => ata_port->host
* ata_port_info->host_flags => ata_port_info->flags
* ata_(.*)host_set(.*)\(\) => ata_\1host\2()
The leading underscore in ata_probe_ent->_host_flags is to avoid
reusing ->host_flags for different purpose. Currently, the only user
of the field is libata-bmdma.c and probe_ent itself is scheduled to be
removed.
ata_port->host is reused for different purpose but this field is used
inside libata core proper and of different type.
