2011-11-09[libata] Issue SRST to Sil3726 PMPGwendal Grignou
Reenable sending SRST to devices connected behind a Sil3726 PMP. This allow staggered spinups and handles drives that spins up slowly. While the drives spin up, the PMP will not accept SRST. Most controller reissues the reset until the drive is ready, while some [Sil3124] returns an error. In ata_eh_error, wait 10s before reset the ATA port and try again.

2011-07-23libata: leave port thawed after reset failureTejun Heo
libata EH intentionally left a port frozen if it failed ata_eh_reset(). The intention was avoiding continuous loop of resets when the controller or attached device is flaky and reporting spurious hotplug events. Once port enters this state, it can be recovered with manual rescan, which seemed reasonable. However, outside of my convoluted test setup, there have been very few reports justifying this choice while there have been more cases where the automatic freezing of the port after hotplug attempt of a faulty device caused confusion and led to unnecessary resets. This patch changes the behavior so that the port is thawed after reset failure. This change doesn't necessarily solve but makes it easier and more intuitive to work around hotplug related problems (ie. re-pluggin or power cycling the device) as reported in the followings. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34712 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1123265/focus=49548 Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reported-by: Reartes Guillermo <rtguille@gmail.com> Reported-by: Bruce Stenning <b.stenning@indigovision.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>

2011-06-07libata: fix unexpectedly frozen port after ata_eh_reset()Tejun Heo
To work around controllers which can't properly plug events while reset, ata_eh_reset() clears error states and ATA_PFLAG_EH_PENDING after reset but before RESET is marked done. As reset is the final recovery action and full verification of devices including onlineness and classfication match is done afterwards, this shouldn't lead to lost devices or missed hotplug events. Unfortunately, it forgot to thaw the port when clearing EH_PENDING, so if the condition happens after resetting an empty port, the port could be left frozen and EH will end without thawing it, making the port unresponsive to further hotplug events. Thaw if the port is frozen after clearing EH_PENDING. This problem is reported by Bruce Stenning in the following thread. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1123265 stable: I think we should weather this patch a bit longer in -rcX before sending it to -stable.

2011-03-02libata: separate error handler into usable componentsJames Bottomley
Right at the moment, the libata error handler is incredibly monolithic. This makes it impossible to use from composite drivers like libsas and ipr which have to handle error themselves in the first instance. The essence of the change is to split the monolithic error handler into two components: one which handles a queue of ata commands for processing and the other which handles the back end of readying a port. This allows the upper error handler fine grained control in calling libsas functions (and making sure they only get called for ATA commands whose lower errors have been fixed up).

2011-03-02libata: fix eh lockingJames Bottomley
The SCSI host eh_cmd_q should be protected by the host lock (not the port lock). This probably doesn't matter that much at the moment, since we try to serialise the add and eh pieces, but it might matter in future for more convenient error handling. Plus this switches libata to the standard eh pattern where you lock, remove from the cmd queue to a local list and unlock and then operate on the local list.

2011-03-02libata: fix hotplug for drivers which don't implement LPMTejun Heo
ata_eh_analyze_serror() suppresses hotplug notifications if LPM is being used because LPM generates spurious hotplug events. It compared whether link->lpm_policy was different from ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER to determine whether LPM is enabled; however, this is incorrect as for drivers which don't implement LPM, lpm_policy is always ATA_LPM_UNKNOWN. This disabled hotplug detection for all drivers which don't implement LPM. Fix it by comparing whether lpm_policy is greater than ATA_LPM_MAX_POWER.

2010-12-24libata: issue DIPM enable commands with LPM state updatedTejun Heo
Low level drivers may behave differently depending on the current link->lpm_policy. During ata_eh_set_lpm(), DIPM enable commands are issued after the successful completion of ap->ops->set_lpm(), which means that the controller is already in the target state. This causes DIPM enable commands to be processed with mismatching controller power state and link->lpm_policy value. In ahci, link->lpm_policy is used to ignore certain PHY events if LPM is enabled; however, as DIPM commands are issued with stale link->lpm_policy, they sometimes end up triggering these conditions and get aborted leading to LPM configuration failure. Fix it by updating link->lpm_policy before issuing DIPM enable commands.

2010-10-22libata: implement cross-port EH exclusionTejun Heo
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.

2010-10-22libata: reimplement link power managementTejun Heo
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. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

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.

2010-05-19libata-sff: separate out BMDMA EHTejun Heo
Some of error handling logic in ata_sff_error_handler() and all of ata_sff_post_internal_cmd() are for BMDMA. Create ata_bmdma_error_handler() and ata_bmdma_post_internal_cmd() and move BMDMA part into those. While at it, change DMA protocol check to ata_is_dma(), fix post_internal_cmd to call ap->ops->bmdma_stop instead of directly calling ata_bmdma_stop() and open code hardreset selection so that ata_std_error_handler() doesn't have to know about sff hardreset. As these two functions are BMDMA specific, there's no reason to check for bmdma_addr before calling bmdma methods if the protocol of the failed command is DMA. sata_mv and pata_mpc52xx now don't need to set .post_internal_cmd to ATA_OP_NULL and pata_icside and sata_qstor don't need to set it to their bmdma_stop routines. ata_sff_post_internal_cmd() becomes noop and is removed.

libata currently doesn't retry if a command fails with AC_ERR_INVALID assuming that retrying won't get it any further even if retried. However, a failure may be classified as invalid through hardware glitch (incorrect reading of the error register or firmware bug) and there isn't whole lot to gain by not retrying as actually invalid commands will be failed immediately. Also, commands serving FS IOs are extremely unlikely to be invalid. Retry FS IOs even if it's marked invalid.

2009-12-03libata: retry failed FLUSH if device didn't fail itTejun Heo
If ATA device failed FLUSH, it means that the device failed to write out some amount of data and the error needs to be reported to upper layers. As retries can't recover the lost data, FLUSH failures need to be reported immediately in general. However, if FLUSH fails due to transmission errors, the FLUSH needs to be retried; otherwise, filesystems may switch to RO mode and/or raid array may drop a drive for a random transmission glitch. This condition can be rather easily reproduced on certain ahci controllers which go through a PHY event after powersave mode switch + ext4 combination. Powersave mode switch is often closely followed by flush from the filesystem failing the FLUSH with ATA bus error which makes the filesystem code believe that data is lost and drop to RO mode. This was reported in the following bugzilla bug. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14543 This patch makes libata EH retry FLUSH if it wasn't failed by the device.

Commit 842faa6c1a1d6faddf3377948e5cf214812c6c90 fixed error handling during attach by not committing detected device class to dev->class while attaching a new device. However, this change missed the PMP class check in the configuration loop causing a new PMP device to go through ata_dev_configure() as if it were an ATA or ATAPI device. As PMP device doesn't have a regular IDENTIFY data, this makes ata_dev_configure() tries to configure a PMP device using an invalid data. For the most part, it wasn't too harmful and went unnoticed but this ends up clearing dev->flags which may have ATA_DFLAG_AN set by sata_pmp_attach(). This means that SATA_PMP_FEAT_NOTIFY ends up being disabled on PMPs and on PMPs which honor the flag breaks hotplug support. This problem was discovered and reported by Ethan Hsiao.

2009-10-07libata: fix incorrect link online check during probeTejun Heo
While trying to work around spurious detection retries for non-existent devices on slave links, commit 816ab89782ac139a8b65147cca990822bb7e8675 incorrectly added link offline check logic before ata_eh_thaw() was called. This means that if an occupied link goes down briefly at the time that offline check was performed, device class will be cleared to ATA_DEV_NONE and libata wouldn't retry thus failing detection of the device. The offline check should be done after the port is thawed together with online check so that such link glitches can be detected by the interrupt handler and handled properly.

2009-09-01libata: add command name parsing for error outputRobert Hancock
This patch improve libata's output for error/notification messages to allow easier comprehension and debugging: When ATAPI commands issued through the SCSI layer fail, use SCSI functions to print the CDB in human-readable form instead of just dumping out the CDB in hex. Print out the name of the failed command (as defined by the ATA specification) in error handling output along with the raw register contents. When reporting status of ACPI taskfile commands executed on resume, also output the names of the commands being executed (or not) in readable form. Since the extra data for printing command names increases kernel size slightly, a config option has been added to allow disabling command name output (as well as some of the error register parsing) for those highly sensitive to kernel text size.

Resets are done with port frozen but some controllers still issue interrupts during reset and they may end up recording error conditions in ehi leading to unnecessary EH retrials. This patch makes ata_eh_reset() clear ehi on reset completion. As reset is the most severe recovery action, there's nothing to lose by clearing ehi on its completion.

2009-05-11libata: fix attach error handlingTejun Heo
New device attach path in ata_eh_revalidate_and_attach() is divided into two separate loops because ATA requires IDENTIFY to be issued to slave first while the user expects to see device probe messages from the master device. new_mask is used to track which devices are the new ones between the first loop and the second. This usually works well but if an error occurs during configuration stage, ata_dev_revalidate_and_attach() returns with error code and forgets new_mask. On the retry run, dev->class is set and new_mask for the device is clear, so the device just gets revalidated and thus ends up skipping post-configuration procedure including scheduling of SCSI_HOTPLUG for the device. When this occurs, ATA part of probing works fine but SCSI probing usually doesn't happen and makes the device unreachable. The behavior has been around for a very long time but it has been uncovered with the recent addition of 1_5_GBPS horkage which uses -EAGAIN return value from ata_dev_configure() to restart the probing sequence after forcing cable speed. This can be fixed by making sure dev->class is permanently set only after all configurations are successfully complete. Fix it.

2009-03-05libata: make sure port is thawed when skipping resetsTejun Heo
When SCR access is available and the link is offline, softreset is skipped as it only wastes time and some controllers don't respond very well. However, the skip path forgot to thaw the port, which not only blocks further event notification from the port but also causes repeated EH invocations on the same event on drivers which rely on ->thaw() to clear events if the IRQ is shared with another device or port. This problem has always been there but is uncovered by recent sata_nv nf2/3 change which dropped hardreset support while maintaining SCR access. nf2/3 doesn't clear hotplug event mask from the interrupt handler but relies on ->thaw() to clear them. When the hardreset was there, the reset action was never skipped and the port was always thawed but, with the hardreset gone, ->prereset() determines that there's no need for softreset and both ->softreset() and ->thaw() are skipped. This leads to stuck hotplug event in the IRQ status register triggering hotplug event whenever IRQ is delieverd on the same IRQ. As the controller shares the same IRQ for both ports, this happens on every IO if one port is occpupied and the other isn't. This patch fixes the problem by making sure that the port is thawed on reset-skip path. bko#11615 reports this problem.

2009-02-03libata: improve probe failure handlingTejun Heo
When link is flaky at high speed, it isn't uncommon for a device to repeatedly fail probing sequence early after successfully negotiating high link speed. This often leads to consecutive hotplug events without successful probing. This patch improves libata EH such that it remembers probing trials and if there have been more than two unsuccessful trials in the past 60 seconds, slows down link speed to 1.5Gbps. As link speed negotiation is the duty of the PHY layer proper, the goal of this fallback mechanism is to provide the last resort when everything else fails, which unfortunately happens not too infrequently, so no fancy 6->3->1.5 speeding down or highest successful transmission speed seen kind of logics (yet).

2009-02-03libata: clear dev->ering in smarter wayTejun Heo
dev->ering used to be cleared together with the rest of ata_device in ata_dev_init() which is called whenever a probing event occurs. dev->ering is about to be used to track probing failures so it needs to remain persistent over multiple porbing events. This patch achieves this by doing the following. * Instead of CLEAR_OFFSET, define CLEAR_BEGIN and CLEAR_END and only clear between BEGIN and END. ering is moved after END. The split of persistent area is to allow hotter items remain at the head. * ering is explicitly cleared on ata_dev_disable() and when device attach succeeds. So, ering is persistent throug a device's life time (unless explicitly cleared of course) and also through periods inbetween disablement of an attached device and successful detection of the next one.
