CompactFlash cards in a passive PCMCIA adapter don't seem to like the ATA_CMD_SET_FEATURES command, which causes libata device probing to fail. Since PCMCIA only allows PIO mode 0 anyway, there is no point in ever setting a higher speed. Adding the dummy function seems to do the right thing. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> --- This bug was reported earlier in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7711 by wkl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx I have not been able to find out _why_ all my CF cards reject the SETFEATURES_XFER command, but I have verified that the same happens when trying to use hdparm with ide_cs. Note that none of my cards are CF-4.0 compliant, so they also don't do UDMA modes. The highest mode claimed to be supported by one of my cards is PIO-4, but I can't set it into any of the modes it likes. diff --git a/drivers/ata/pata_pcmcia.c b/drivers/ata/pata_pcmcia.c index 9ed7f58..642753c 100644 --- a/drivers/ata/pata_pcmcia.c +++ b/drivers/ata/pata_pcmcia.c @@ -44,6 +44,30 @@ #define DRV_NAME "pata_pcmcia" #define DRV_VERSION "0.2.11" +/** + * legacy_set_mode - mode setting + * @ap: IDE interface + * + * Use a non standard set_mode function.
