Hello, all. This is the fifth take of hotplug polling patchset. This take doesn't contain any real change than rebasing over the current upstream[U]. PMP patchset will be posted soon on top of this patchset and I wanted to avoid confusion by posting patchsets in order. As the name implies, this patchset implements hotplug by polling. hp-poll is used to * Monitor ports EH gave up. When EH gives up on a port, it freezes the port to protect the rest of the system from it. The user used to have to issue manual scan to retry the port. hp-poll can monitor such port and retry it when hotplug event is detected. This is also used by PMP support. * Support hotplug on controllers which can report hotplug conditions but cannot raise interrupt. Changes from the last take[L] are. * updated to the current upstream This patchset is also available in the following git tree. http://htj.dyndns.org/git/?p=libata-tj.git;a=shortlog;h=hp-poll git://htj.dyndns.org/libata-tj hp-poll Thanks. -- tejun [U] da54f5fe54c7d75e2db7d17961fb36a8c28a8501 [L] http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/13418 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
