Modern laptops with hotswap bays still tend to utilise a PATA interface on a SATA bridge, generally with the host controller in some legacy emulation mode rather than AHCI. This means that the existing hotplug code in libata is unable to work. The ACPI specification states that these devices can send notifications when hotswapped, which avoids the need to obtain notification from the controller. This patch uses the existing libata-acpi code and simply registers a notification in order to trigger a rescan whenever the firmware signals an event. Signed-off-by: Matthew Garrett <mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- This makes two changes to the previous patch: 1) It implements the locking suggested by Tejun 2) It sends a uevent on the device kobject. I've implemented this because grabbing the notification handler means that the bay driver can no longer do it, so it's necessary to generate compatible events. If the event type is 3, it indicates that the user has merely requested an eject - the drive hasn't gone at this point. Sending the notification allows userspace to attempt to unmount the filesystems before sending a command to initiate the eject. I'm not especially happy about the chain used to get the scsi device kobject. Is there a cleaner way to do that? Other than that, I've now tested this on multiple systems (a 965-based Thinkpad, a 915-era Dell and even an HP with no SATA whatsoever) without any obvious breakage. diff --git a/drivers/ata/libata-acpi.c b/drivers/ata/libata-acpi.c index c059f78..68bb7fa 100644 --- a/drivers/ata/libata-acpi.c +++ b/drivers/ata/libata-acpi.c @@ -14,6 +14,7 @@ #include <linux/acpi.h> #include <linux/libata.h> #include <linux/pci.h> +#include <scsi/scsi_device.h> #include "libata.h" #include <acpi/acpi_bus.h> @@ -66,6 +67,41 @@ static void ata_acpi_associate_ide_port(struct ata_port *ap) } } +static void ata_acpi_notify(acpi_handle handle, u32 event, void *data) +{ + struct ata_port *ap = data; + struct ata_eh_info *ehi = &ap->eh_info; + char event_string[12]; + char *envp[] = { event_string, NULL }; + struct kobject *kobj = NULL; + int i; + + if (ap->acpi_handle && handle == ap->acpi_handle) + kobj = &ap->dev->kobj; + else { + for (i = 0; i < ata_port_max_devices(ap); i++) { + struct ata_device *dev = &ap->device[i]; + if (dev->acpi_handle && handle == dev->acpi_handle) + kobj = &dev->sdev->sdev_gendev.kobj; + } + } + + if (event == 0 || event == 1) { + unsigned long flags; + spin_lock_irqsave(ap->lock, flags); + ata_ehi_clear_desc(ehi); + ata_ehi_push_desc(ehi, "ACPI event"); + ata_ehi_hotplugged(ehi); + ata_port_freeze(ap); + spin_unlock_irqrestore(ap->lock, flags); + } + + if (kobj) { + sprintf(event_string, "BAY_EVENT=%d\n", event); + kobject_uevent_env(kobj, KOBJ_CHANGE, envp); + } +} + /** * ata_acpi_associate - associate ATA host with ACPI objects * @host: target ATA host @@ -81,7 +117,7 @@ static void ata_acpi_associate_ide_port(struct ata_port *ap) */ void ata_acpi_associate(struct ata_host *host) { - int i; + int i, j; if (!is_pci_dev(host->dev) || libata_noacpi) return; @@ -97,6 +133,22 @@ void ata_acpi_associate(struct ata_host *host) ata_acpi_associate_sata_port(ap); else ata_acpi_associate_ide_port(ap); + + if (ap->acpi_handle) + acpi_install_notify_handler (ap->acpi_handle, + ACPI_SYSTEM_NOTIFY, + ata_acpi_notify, + ap); + + for (j = 0; j < ata_port_max_devices(ap); j++) { + struct ata_device *dev = &ap->device[j]; + + if (dev->acpi_handle) + acpi_install_notify_handler (dev->acpi_handle, + ACPI_SYSTEM_NOTIFY, + ata_acpi_notify, + ap); + } } } -- Matthew Garrett | mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
