Tejun Heo dd410ff129 [PATCH] ahci: clean up AHCI constants in preparation for NCQ
* Rename CMD_TBL_HDR to CMD_TBL_HDR_SZ as it's size not offset.

* Define MAX_CMDS and CMD_SZ and use them in calculation of other
  constants.

* Define CMD_TBL_AR_SZ as product of CMD_TBL_SZ and MAX_CMDS, and use
  it when calculating PRIV_DMA_SZ.

* CMD_SLOT_SZ is also dependent on MAX_CMDS but hasn't been changed
  because I didn't want to change the value used by the original code
  (32 commands).  Later NCQ change will bump MAX_CMDS to 32 anyway and
  the hard coded 32 can be changed to MAX_CMDS then.

* Reorder HOST_CAP_* flags.

Tejun Heo 3dc1d88193 [PATCH] libata-ncq: implement NCQ command translation and exclusion
This patch implements NCQ command translation and exclusion.  Note
that NCQ commands don't use ata_rwcmd_protocol() to choose ATA
command.  This is because, unlike non-NCQ RW commands, NCQ commands
can only be used for NCQ protocol and FUA handling is done with a flag
rather than separate command.

NCQ enabled device will have queue depth larger than one but no two
non-NCQ commands can be issued simultaneously, neither can a non-NCQ
command and NCQ commands.  This patch makes ata_scsi_translate()
return SCSI_MLQUEUE_DEVICE_BUSY if such exclusion is necessary.  SCSI
midlayer will retry the command later.

As SCSI midlayer always retries once a command completes, this doesn't
incur unnecessary delays and as most commands will be NCQ ones for NCQ
device, so the overhead should be negligible.

Initial implementation is from Jens Axboe and using
SCSI_MLQUEUE_DEVICE_BUSY for exclusion is suggested by Jeff Garzik.

Tejun Heo 88ce7550c3 [PATCH] sata_sil24: convert to new EH
Convert sata_sil24 to new EH.

* When port is frozen, IRQ for the port is masked.

* sil24_softreset() doesn't need to mangle with IRQ mask anymore.
  libata ensures that the port is frozen during reset.

* Only turn on interrupts which are handled by interrupt handler and
  EH.  As we don't handle SDB notify yet, turn it off. DEV_XCHG and
  UNK_FIS are handled by EH and thus turned on.

* sil24_softreset() usually fails to recover the port after DEV_XCHG.
  ATA_PORT_HARDRESET is used as recovery action for DEV_XCHG.

* sil24 may be invoked without any active command.  e.g. DEV_XCHG irq
  occuring while no qc in progress still triggers EH and will reset
  the port and revalidate attached device.

Tejun Heo 78cd52d02f [PATCH] ahci: convert to new EH
Convert AHCI to new EH.  Unfortunately, ICH7 AHCI reacts badly if IRQ
mask is diddled during operation.  So, freezing is implemented by
unconditionally clearing interrupt conditions while frozen.

* Interrupts are categorized according to required action.
  e.g. Connection status or unknown FIS error requires freezing the
  port while TF or HBUS_DATA don't.

* Only CONNECT (reflects SErr.X) interrupt is taken into account not
  PHYRDY (SErr.N), as CONNECT is better cue for starting EH.

* AHCI may be invoked without any active command.  e.g. CONNECT irq
  occuring while no qc in progress still triggers EH and will reset
  the port and revalidate attached device.

recover the failed port.

ata_eh_autopsy() : analyze SError/TF, determine the cause of failure
		   and required recovery actions and record it in

ata_eh_report()	 : report the failure to user
ata_eh_recover() : perform recovery actions described in ap->eh_context
ata_eh_finish()	 : finish failed qcs

calling ata_do_eh() or, if necessary, doing so inbetween each major
steps by calling each step explicitly.

Tejun Heo f3e81b19aa [PATCH] libata-eh: implement ata_eh_info and ata_eh_context
struct ata_eh_info serves as the communication channel between
execution path and EH.  Execution path describes detected error
condition in ap->eh_info and EH recovers the port using it.  To avoid
missing error conditions detected during EH, EH makes its own copy of
eh_info and clears it on entry allowing error info to accumulate
during EH.

Most EH states including EH's copy of eh_info are stored in
ap->eh_context (struct ata_eh_context) which is owned by EH and thus
doesn't require any synchronization to access and alter.  This
standardized context makes it easy to integrate various parts of EH
and extend EH to handle multiple links (for PM).

Update ata_exec_internal() such that it uses new EH framework.
->post_internal_cmd() is always invoked regardless of completion
status.  Also, when ata_exec_internal() detects a timeout condition
and new EH is in place, it freezes the port as timeout for normal
commands would do.

Note that ata_port_flush_task() is called regardless of
wait_for_completion status.  This is necessary as exceptions unrelated
to the qc can abort the qc, in which case PIO task could still be
running after the wait for completion returns.

Tejun Heo ad9e276244 [PATCH] libata-eh-fw: update ata_scsi_error() for new EH
Update ata_scsi_error() for new EH.  ata_scsi_error() is responsible
for claiming timed out qcs and invoking ->error_handler in safe and
synchronized manner.  As the state of the controller is unknown if a
qc has timed out, the port is frozen in such cases.

Note that ata_scsi_timed_out() isn't used for new EH.  This is because
a timed out qc cannot be claimed by EH without freezing the port and
freezing the port in ata_scsi_timed_out() results in unnecessary
abortion of other active qcs.  ata_scsi_timed_out() can be removed
once all drivers are converted to new EH.

While at it, add 'TODO: kill' comments to old EH functions.

Tejun Heo dafadcde8d [PATCH] libata-eh-fw: implement new EH scheduling from PIO
PIO executes without holding host_set lock, so it cannot be
synchronized using the same mechanism as interrupt driven execution.
port_task framework makes sure that EH is not entered until PIO task
is flushed, so PIO task can be sure the qc in progress won't go away
underneath it.  One thing it cannot be sure of is whether the qc has
already been scheduled for EH by another exception condition while
host_set lock was released.

This patch makes ata_poll_qc-complete() handle such conditions
properly and make it freeze the port if HSM violation is detected
during PIO execution.

Tejun Heo e318049949 [PATCH] libata-eh-fw: implement freeze/thaw
Freezing is performed atomic w.r.t. host_set->lock and once frozen
LLDD is not allowed to access the port or any qc on it.  Also, libata
makes sure that no new qc gets issued to a frozen port.

A frozen port is thawed after a reset operation completes
successfully, so reset methods must do its job while the port is
frozen.  During initialization all ports get frozen before requesting
IRQ, so reset methods are always invoked on a frozen port.

Optional ->freeze and ->thaw operations notify LLDD that the port is
being frozen and thawed, respectively.  LLDD can disable/enable
hardware interrupt in these callbacks if the controller's IRQ mask can
be changed dynamically.  If the controller doesn't allow such
operation, LLDD can check for frozen state in the interrupt handler
and ack/clear interrupts unconditionally while frozen.

Tejun Heo 7b70fc0398 [PATCH] libata-eh-fw: implement ata_port_schedule_eh() and ata_port_abort()
ata_port_schedule_eh() directly schedules EH for @ap without
associated qc.  Once EH scheduled, no further qc is allowed and EH
kicks in as soon as all currently active qc's are drained.

ata_port_abort() schedules all currently active commands for EH by
qc_completing them with ATA_QCFLAG_FAILED set.  If ata_port_abort()
doesn't find any qc to abort, it directly schedule EH using
ata_port_schedule_eh().

These two functions provide ways to invoke EH for conditions which
aren't directly related to any specfic qc.

Tejun Heo f686bcb807 [PATCH] libata-eh-fw: implement new EH scheduling via error completion
There are several ways a qc can get schedule for EH in new EH.  This
patch implements one of them - completing a qc with ATA_QCFLAG_FAILED
set or with non-zero qc->err_mask.  ALL such qc's are examined by EH.

New EH schedules a qc for EH from completion iff ->error_handler is
implemented, qc is marked as failed or qc->err_mask is non-zero and
the command is not an internal command (internal cmd is handled via
->post_internal_cmd).  The EH scheduling itself is performed by asking
SCSI midlayer to schedule EH for the specified scmd.

For drivers implementing old-EH, nothing changes.  As this change
makes ata_qc_complete() rather large, it's not inlined anymore and
__ata_qc_complete() is exported to other parts of libata for later
use.

Tejun Heo f69499f42c [PATCH] libata-eh-fw: update ata_qc_from_tag() to enforce normal/EH qc ownership
New EH framework has clear distinction about who owns a qc.  Every qc
starts owned by normal execution path - PIO, interrupt or whatever.
When an exception condition occurs which affects the qc, the qc gets
scheduled for EH.  Note that some events (say, link lost and regained,
command timeout) may schedule qc's which are not directly related but
could have been affected for EH too.  Scheduling for EH is atomic
w.r.t. ap->host_set->lock and once schedule for EH, normal execution
path is not allowed to access the qc in whatever way.  (PIO
synchronization acts a bit different and will be dealt with later)

This patch make ata_qc_from_tag() check whether a qc is active and
owned by normal path before returning it.  If conditions don't match,
NULL is returned and thus access to the qc is denied.
__ata_qc_from_tag() is the original ata_qc_from_tag() and is used by
libata core/EH layers to access inactive/failed qc's.

This change is applied only if the associated LLDD implements new EH
as indicated by non-NULL ->error_handler

Tejun Heo 2ab7db1ff1 [PATCH] libata-eh-fw: use special reserved tag and qc for internal commands
New EH may issue internal commands to recover from error while failed
qc's are still hanging around.  To allow such usage, reserve tag
ATA_MAX_QUEUE-1 for internal command.  This also makes it easy to tell
whether a qc is for internal command or not.  ata_tag_internal() test
implements this test.

To avoid breaking existing drivers, ata_exec_internal() uses
ATA_TAG_INTERNAL only for drivers which implement ->error_handler.
For drivers using old EH, tag 0 is used.  Note that this makes
ata_tag_internal() test valid only when ->error_handler is
implemented.  This is okay as drivers on old EH should not and does
not have any reason to use ata_tag_internal().

Implement ata_scr_{valid|read|write|write_flush}() and

This makes handling SCR-available and SCR-unavailable cases in the
same path easier.  Also, it eases later PM implementation where SCR
access can fail due to various reasons.

ata_port_{online|offline}() functions return 1 only when they are
affirmitive of the condition.  e.g.  if SCR is unaccessible or
presence cannot be determined for other reasons, these functions
return 0.  So, ata_port_online() != !ata_port_offline().  This

Tejun Heo ee7863bc68 [PATCH] SCSI: implement shost->host_eh_scheduled
libata needs to invoke EH without scmd.  This patch adds
shost->host_eh_scheduled to implement such behavior.

Currently the only user of this feature is libata and no general
interface is defined.  This patch simply adds handling for
host_eh_scheduled where needed and exports scsi_eh_wakeup() to
modules.  The rest is upto libata.  This is the result of the
following discussion.

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.scsi/23853/focus=9760

In short, SCSI host is not supposed to know about exceptions unrelated
to specific device or command.  Such exceptions should be handled by
transport layer proper.  However, the distinction is not essential to
ATA and libata is planning to depart from SCSI, so, for the time
being, libata will be using SCSI EH to handle such exceptions.
