I'll do.
It also disables ATA_TFLAG_POLLING in libata-core, which prevented the
DVD drive
from being detected. It needs to be investigated what exactly is wrong
here.
tf.protocol = ATA_PROT_PIO;
- tf.flags |= ATA_TFLAG_POLLING; /* for polling presence detection */
+// tf.flags |= ATA_TFLAG_POLLING; /* for polling presence
detection */
I doubt that this could *ever* get accepted.
It was not meant to be accepted, but to work around the problem which
was introduced in 2.6.19. I have far too less knowledge of the SATA
layer to understand why this flag exactly causes the detection of the
DVD-Drive fail.
As said, this needs to be investigated, and fixed (in the driver, of
course, not in the subsystem).
Yeah, I've missed it in the patch description. :-<
+static unsigned int get_scr_cfg_addr(unsigned int port_no, unsigned
int sc_reg, int device)
+{
+ unsigned int addr = SIS_SCR_BASE + (4 * sc_reg);
+
Why we need device and port_no arguments here?
As there is only one device/port per PCI device, the arguments should
probably be removed from this function, right.
+ if (sc_reg == SCR_ERROR) /* doesn't exist in PCI cfg space */
+ return 0; /* assume no error */
Since SCR_ERROR == 1, this check seems broken.
Why?
Since get_scr_cfg_addr() will never return 1... oh wait, we're checking
another variable... :-<
Maybe worth merging to get_scr_cfg_addr() then, along with (sc_reg >
SCR_CONTROL) checks, to avoid duplicate code.
