From f740d1689d91415cfc749d17138a11ed03b7d38b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Robert Hancock Date: Tue, 23 Jan 2007 20:09:02 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] sata_nv: don't rely on NV_INT_DEV indication with ADMA Several people reported issues with certain drive commands timing out on sata_nv controllers running in ADMA mode. The commands in question were non-DMA-mapped commands, usually FLUSH CACHE or FLUSH CACHE EXT. From experimentation it appears that the NV_INT_DEV indication isn't always set when a legitimate command completion interrupt is received on a legacy-mode command, at least not on these controllers in ADMA mode. When a command is pending on the port, force the flag on always in the irq_stat value before calling nv_host_intr so that the drive busy state is always checked by ata_host_intr. This also fixes some questionable code in nv_host_intr which called ata_check_status when a command was pending and ata_host_intr returned "unhandled". If the device interrupted at just the wrong time this could cause interrupts to be lost. Signed-off-by: Robert Hancock Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik --- Reading git-format-patch failed
