A user has several systems with a couple of models of flash disks with IDE
connectors. These disks work fine in 2.6.18-ish kernels but corrupt data on
new kernels.
The difference appears to be with the default I/O method used by the IDE
controller driver between the kernels. In the older kernels, the
configuration is very conservative and the driver stays in PIO mode. With
new kernels, the ata driver (pata_serverworks) attempts to use UDMA/66
which the drive claims to support. This mode, however, does not appear to
work in DMA mode. The drive does work correctly and no corruption is
seen if the kernel parameter "libata.force=5:pio0,6:pio0" is used to force
the driver to use PIO instead of DMA mode.
Blacklist these drives. Unfortunately the model name of the drive is very
generic, " 2GB ATA Flash Disk", but the revision is specific, "ADMA428M".

ap->print_id = ata_print_id++;
to
ap->print_id = atomic_inc_return(&ata_print_id);
As the latter behaves like ++ata_print_id, we must initialize
it to zero to start the numbering from one.

work has been queued.
Device ordering is maintained with scan order by still calling

Since we now scan the domain list when invoking libata-eh we need to be

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().

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

After late HPA unlock, libata kept using the original capacity
ignoring the new larger native capacity. Enlarging device on the fly
doesn't cause any harm. Use the larger native capacity instead. This
will enable on-demand HPA unlocking.
