It's really not a separate logical API and I was thinking of folding it into ata_bus_softreset() or ata_std_softreset() after old EH is gone. Also it's a bit ugly to call ap->ops->* from a ap->ops callback. I think the correct solution here is to write a separate ->softreset method. Hmmm... I guess what's failing is the nsect==1 && lbal==1 test, right? Jeff, do we really need that test? dev0 doesn't clear BSY till PDIAG- is asserted from dev1 anyway. Maybe just limit the waiting there to a few secs? -- tejun - 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
