ata_qc_complete() contains special handling for certain commands. For
example, it schedules EH for device revalidation after certain
configurations are changed. These shouldn't be applied to EH
commands but they were.
In most cases, it doesn't cause an actual problem because EH doesn't
issue any command which would trigger special handling; however, ACPI
can issue such commands via _GTF which can cause weird interactions.
Restructure ata_qc_complete() such that EH commands are always passed
on to __ata_qc_complete().
stable: Please apply to -stable only after 2.6.38 is released.

In libata, the non-EH code paths should always take and release
ap->lock explicitly when accessing hardware or shared data structures.
However, once EH is active, it's assumed that the port is owned by EH
and EH methods don't explicitly take ap->lock unless race from irq
handler or other code paths are expected. However, libata EH didn't
guarantee exclusion among EHs for ports of the same host. IOW,
multiple EHs may execute in parallel on multiple ports of the same
controller.
In many cases, especially in SATA, the ports are completely
independent of each other and this doesn't cause problems; however,
there are cases where different ports share the same resource, which
lead to obscure timing related bugs such as the one fixed by commit
213373cf (ata_piix: fix locking around SIDPR access).
This patch implements exclusion among EHs of the same host. When EH
begins, it acquires per-host EH ownership by calling ata_eh_acquire().
When EH finishes, the ownership is released by calling
ata_eh_release(). EH ownership is also released whenever the EH
thread goes to sleep from ata_msleep() or explicitly and reacquired
after waking up.
This ensures that while EH is actively accessing the hardware, it has
exclusive access to it while allowing EHs to interleave and progress
in parallel as they hit waiting stages, which dominate the time spent
in EH. This achieves cross-port EH exclusion without pervasive and
fragile changes while still allowing parallel EH for the most part.
This was first reported by yuanding02@gmail.com more than three years
ago in the following bugzilla. :-)

The current LPM implementation has the following issues.
* Operation order isn't well thought-out. e.g. HIPM should be
configured after IPM in SControl is properly configured. Not the
other way around.
* Suspend/resume paths call ata_lpm_enable/disable() which must only
be called from EH context directly. Also, ata_lpm_enable/disable()
were called whether LPM was in use or not.
* Implementation is per-port when it should be per-link. As a result,
it can't be used for controllers with slave links or PMP.
* LPM state isn't managed consistently. After a link reset for
whatever reason including suspend/resume the actual LPM state would
be reset leaving ap->lpm_policy inconsistent.
* Generic/driver-specific logic boundary isn't clear. Currently,
libahci has to mangle stuff which libata EH proper should be
handling. This makes the implementation unnecessarily complex and
fragile.
* Tied to ALPM. Doesn't consider DIPM only cases and doesn't check
whether the device allows HIPM.
* Error handling isn't implemented.
Given the extent of mismatch with the rest of libata, I don't think
trying to fix it piecewise makes much sense. This patch reimplements
LPM support.
* The new implementation is per-link. The target policy is still
port-wide (ap->target_lpm_policy) but all the mechanisms and states
are per-link and integrate well with the rest of link abstraction
and can work with slave and PMP links.
* Core EH has proper control of LPM state. LPM state is reconfigured
when and only when reconfiguration is necessary. It makes sure that
LPM state is reset when probing for new device on the link.
Controller agnostic logic is now implemented in libata EH proper and
driver implementation only has to deal with controller specifics.
* Proper error handling. LPM config failure is attributed to the
device on the link and LPM is disabled for the link if it fails
repeatedly.
* ops->enable/disable_pm() are replaced with single ops->set_lpm()
which takes @policy and @hints. This simplifies driver specific
implementation.

Link power management related symbols are in confusing state w/ mixed
usages of lpm, ipm and pm. This patch cleans up lpm related symbols
and sysfs show/store functions as follows.
* lpm states - NOT_AVAILABLE, MIN_POWER, MAX_PERFORMANCE and
MEDIUM_POWER are renamed to ATA_LPM_UNKNOWN and
ATA_LPM_{MIN|MAX|MED}_POWER.
* Pre/postfixes are unified to lpm.
* sysfs show/store functions for link_power_management_policy were
curiously named get/put and unnecessarily complex. Renamed to
show/store and simplified.

Currently, sata_fsl, mv and nv call ata_qc_complete() multiple times
from their interrupt handlers to indicate completion of NCQ commands.
This limits the visibility the libata core layer has into how commands
are being executed and completed, which is necessary to support IRQ
expecting in generic way. libata already has an interface to complete
multiple commands at once - ata_qc_complete_multiple() which ahci and
sata_sil24 already use.
This patch updates the three drivers to use ata_qc_complete_multiple()
too and updates comments on ata_qc_complete[_multiple]() regarding
their usages with NCQ completions. This change not only provides
better visibility into command execution to the core layer but also
simplifies low level drivers.
* sata_fsl: It already builds done_mask. Conversion is straight
forward.
* sata_mv: mv_process_crpb_response() no longer checks for illegal
completions, it just returns whether the tag is completed or not.
mv_process_crpb_entries() builds done_mask from it and passes it to
ata_qc_complete_multiple() which will check for illegal completions.
* sata_nv adma: Similar to sata_mv. nv_adma_check_cpb() now just
returns the tag status and nv_adma_interrupt() builds done_mask from
it and passes it to ata_qc_complete_multiple().
* sata_nv swncq: It already builds done_mask. Drop unnecessary
illegal transition checks and call ata_qc_complete_multiple().
In the long run, it might be a good idea to make ata_qc_complete()
whine if called when multiple NCQ commands are in flight.

libata has two concurrency related limitations.
a. ata_wq which is used for polling PIO has single thread per CPU. If
there are multiple devices doing polling PIO on the same CPU, they
can't be executed simultaneously.
b. ata_aux_wq which is used for SCSI probing has single thread. In
cases where SCSI probing is stalled for extended period of time
which is possible for ATAPI devices, this will stall all probing.
#a is solved by increasing maximum concurrency of ata_wq. Please note
that polling PIO might be used under allocation path and thus needs to
be served by a separate wq with a rescuer.
#b is solved by using the default wq instead and achieving exclusion
via per-port mutex.

Implement ata_scsi_unlock_native_capacity() which will be called
through SCSI layer when block layer notices that partitions on a
device extend beyond the end of the device. It requests EH to unlock
HPA, waits for completion and returns the current device capacity.
This allows libata to unlock HPA on demand instead of having to decide
whether to unlock upfront. Unlocking on demand is safer than
unlocking by upfront because some BIOSes write private data to the
area beyond HPA limit. This was suggested by Ben Hutchings.

There are ATAPI devices which raise AN when hit by commands issued by
open(). This leads to infinite loop of AN -> MEDIA_CHANGE uevent ->
udev open() to check media -> AN.
Both ACS and SerialATA standards don't define in which case ATAPI
devices are supposed to raise or not raise AN. They both list media
insertion event as a possible use case for ATAPI ANs but there is no
clear description of what constitutes such events. As such, it seems
a bit too naive to export ANs directly to userland as MEDIA_CHANGE
events without further verification (which should behave similarly to
windows as it apparently is the only thing that some hardware vendors
are testing against).
This patch adds libata.atapi_an module parameter and disables ATAPI AN
by default for now.

port_task is tightly bound to the standard SFF PIO HSM implementation.
Using it for any other purpose would be error-prone and there's no
such user and if some drivers need such feature, it would be much
better off using its own. Move it inside CONFIG_ATA_SFF and rename it
to sff_pio_task.
The only function which is exposed to the core layer is
ata_sff_flush_pio_task() which is renamed from ata_port_flush_task()
and now also takes care of resetting hsm_task_state to HSM_ST_IDLE,
which is possible as it's now specific to PIO HSM.

When BMDMA initialization failed or BMDMA was not available for
whatever reason, bmdma_addr was left at zero and used as an indication
that BMDMA shouldn't be used. This leads to the following problems.
p1. For BMDMA drivers which don't use traditional BMDMA register,
ata_bmdma_mode_filter() incorrectly inhibits DMA modes. Those
drivers either have to inherit from ata_sff_port_ops or clear
->mode_filter explicitly.
p2. non-BMDMA drivers call into BMDMA PRD table allocation. It
doesn't actually allocate PRD table if bmdma_addr is not
initialized but is still confusing.
p3. For BMDMA drivers which don't use traditional BMDMA register, some
methods might not be invoked as expected (e.g. bmdma_stop from
ata_sff_post_internal_cmd()).
p4. SFF drivers w/ custom DMA interface implement noop BMDMA ops
worrying libata core might call into one of them.
These problems are caused by the muddy line between SFF and BMDMA and
the assumption that all BMDMA controllers initialize bmdma_addr.
This patch fixes p1 and p2 by removing the bmdma_addr assumption and
moving prd allocation to BMDMA port start. Later patches will fix the
remaining issues.
This patch improves BMDMA initialization such that
* When BMDMA register initialization fails, falls back to PIO instead
of failing. ata_pci_bmdma_init() never fails now.
* When ata_pci_bmdma_init() falls back to PIO, it clears
ap->mwdma_mask and udma_mask instead of depending on
ata_bmdma_mode_filter(). This makes ata_bmdma_mode_filter()
unnecessary thus resolving p1.
* ata_port_start() which actually is BMDMA specific is moved to
ata_bmdma_port_start(). ata_port_start() and ata_sff_port_start()
are killed.
* ata_sff_port_start32() is moved and renamed to
ata_bmdma_port_start32().
Drivers which no longer call into PRD table allocation are...
pdc_adma, sata_inic162x, sata_qstor, sata_sx4, pata_cmd640 and all
drivers which inherit from ata_sff_port_ops.
pata_icside sets ->port_start to ATA_OP_NULL as it doesn't need PRD
but is a BMDMA controller and doesn't have custom port_start like
other such controllers.
Note that with the previous patch which makes all and only BMDMA
drivers inherit from ata_bmdma_port_ops, this change doesn't break
drivers which need PRD table.

ATA_FLAG_DISABLED is only used by drivers which don't use
->error_handler framework and is largely broken. Its only meaningful
function is to make irq handlers skip processing if the flag is set,
which is largely useless and even harmful as it makes those ports more
likely to cause IRQ storms.
Kill ATA_FLAG_DISABLED and makes the callers disable attached devices
instead. ata_port_probe() and ata_port_disable() which manipulate the
flag are also killed.
This simplifies condition check in IRQ handlers. While updating IRQ
handlers, remove ap NULL check as libata guarantees consecutive port
allocation (unoccupied ports are initialized with dummies) and
long-obsolete ATA_QCFLAG_ACTIVE check (checked by ata_qc_from_tag()).

There are some SATA devices which take relatively long to get out of
0xff status after reset. In libata, this timeout is determined by
ATA_TMOUT_FF_WAIT. Quantum GoVault is the worst requring about 2s for
reliable detection. However, because 2s 0xff timeout can introduce
rather long spurious delay during boot, libata has been compromising
at the next longest timeout of 800ms for HHD424020F7SV00 iVDR drive.
Now that parallel scan is in place for common drivers, libata can
afford 2s 0xff timeout. Use 2s 0xff timeout if parallel scan is
enabled.
Please note that the chance of spurious wait is pretty slim w/ working
SCR access so this will only affect SATA controllers w/o SCR access
which isn't too common these days.
Please read the following thread for more information on the GoVault
drive.

Some BIOSes don't configure HPA during boot but do so while resuming.
This causes harddrives to shrink during resume making libata detach

size equals native size.

per-device and update ata_dev_revalidate() such that it sets
ATA_DFLAG_UNLOCK_HPA and fails with -EIO when the above condition is

Crucial said,
Thank you for contacting us. We know that with our M225 line of SSDs
you sometimes need to disable NCQ (native command queuing) to avoid
just the type of errors you're seeing. Our recommendation for the
M225 is to add libata.force=noncq to your Linux kernel boot options,
under the kernel ATA library option.
I have sent your feedback to the engineers working on the C300, and
asked them to please pass it on to the firmware team. I have been
notified that they are in the process of testing and finalizing a
new firmware version, that you can expect to see released around the
end of April. We’ll keep you posted as to when it will be available
for download.
So, turn off NCQ on the drive w/ the current firmware revision.

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Interestingly, when SIDPR is used in ata_piix, writes to DET in
SControl sometimes get ignored leading to detection failure. Update
sata_link_resume() such that it reads back SControl after clearing DET
and retry if it's not clear.

In each case, if the NULL test on qc is needed, then the derefernce
should be after the NULL test.
A simplified version of the semantic match that detects this problem is as
follows (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/):
// <smpl>
@match exists@
expression x, E;
identifier fld;
@@
* x->fld
... when != \(x = E\|&x\)
* x == NULL
// </smpl>

When an internal command fails, it should be failed directly without
invoking EH. In the original implemetation, this was accomplished by
letting internal command bypass failure handling in ata_qc_complete().
However, later changes added post-successful-completion handling to
that code path and the success path is no longer adequate as internal
command failure path. One of the visible problems is that internal
command failure due to timeout or other freeze conditions would
spuriously trigger WARN_ON_ONCE() in the success path.
This patch updates failure path such that internal command failure
handling is contained there.

Commit 54c38444fad6a99b4b19512f8f0055d69115e69e makes libata abort qcs
after the port is frozen. This is necessary to guarantee that TF
registers are accessed after the DMA engine is shutdown after an
error. However, this triggers WARN_ON_ONCE() check in
ata_qc_complete() spuriously. Move WARN_ON_ONCE() downwards such that
failing commands while frozen doesn't trigger it.

ata_tf_read_block() has off-by-one error when converting CHS address
to LBA. The bug isn't very visible because ata_tf_read_block() is
used only when generating sense data for a failed RW command and CHS
addressing isn't used too often these days.
This problem was spotted by Atsushi Nemoto.

OCZ Vertex SSD can't do HPA and not in a usual way. It reports HPA,
allows unlocking but then fails all IOs which fall in the unlocked
area. Quirk it so that HPA unlocking is not used for the device.

On certain configurations, HPA isn't or can't be unlocked during
probing but it somehow ends up unlocked afterwards. In the following
thread, the problem can be reliably reproduced after resuming from
STR. The BIOS turns on HPA during boot but forgets to do it during
resume.
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/858310
This patch updates libata revalidation such that it considers native
n_sectors. If the device size has increased to match native
n_sectors, it's assumed that HPA has been unlocked involuntarily and
the device is recognized as the same one. This should be fairly safe
while nicely working around the problem.

Before issuing reset, libata configures xfermode to PIO0 which makes
some drivers turn on IORDY which may cause the controller to lock up
if the port is not occupied. IORDY isn't necessary at this point
anyway. Make ata_pio_need_iordy() return zero if it's being called
for reset.
This fixes bko#11703. Reported and tracked down by Daniel Gnoutcheff
and Constantine Gavrilov.
