This patch adds AHCI support for the VIA VT8251 chipset. The patch does so by: 1) Adding the PCI device ID. 2) Adding a workaround in ahci_probe_reset() for a VIA hardware bug. Signed-off-by: Bastiaan Jacques <b.jacques@xxxxxxxxx> --- The patch is based upon the patch[1] provided by VIA. With the softreset and probing work that has been merged, this patch has become much simpler. I am happy to report that without the workaround in ahci_probe_reset(), the chipset works quite well; both my SATA drives are recognised. However, softreset does not work (but hardreset does), and ata_std_probeinit delays, for my primary SATA drive/port, due to the "busy" bug. A Command List Override will unbusy the drive/port. Since the CLO sequence also appears in ahci_softreset(), I have moved that code into a new ahci_clo() function. This patch is against 2.6.17-rc1 (and -mm2). This patch has only been tested by yours truly. Whilst I am waiting for feedback from other people, I am sending this patch to solicit comments. NOTE: My email client cuts off some lines (of context) in my patch because they are longer than 78 characters. Therefore, I am making the patch available from my web server [2], as well.
