The relevant bits in the ctl register are HOB, SRST and nIEN. - HOB is only used by ata_tf_read(). - For SRST, soft reset is not the duty of tf_load. - For nIEN, explicit irq_on()/irq_off and freeze()/thaw() are provided. Remove the implicit nIEN handling from ata_tf_load() since EH/HSM now calls irq_on/irq_off explicitly. vsc_intr_mask_update() also removed since now unused. Signed-off-by: Albert Lee <albertcc@xxxxxxxxxx> --- The bitmasks used by vsc_intr_mask_update() are different to the bit masks in vsc_irq_on() and vsc_irq_off(). I don't know which one is more correct. Maybe we need more test and see if vsc_irq_on()/vsc_irq_off() works for turning irq on/off for polling pio. diff -Nrup 05_rename_thaw_lldd/drivers/ata/libata-sff.c 06_tf_load_cleanup/drivers/ata/libata-sff.c --- 05_rename_thaw_lldd/drivers/ata/libata-sff.c 2007-07-07 10:49:04.000000000 +0800 +++ 06_tf_load_cleanup/drivers/ata/libata-sff.c 2007-07-07 10:50:10.000000000 +0800 @@ -143,11 +143,13 @@ void ata_tf_load(struct ata_port *ap, co struct ata_ioports *ioaddr = &ap->ioaddr; unsigned int is_addr = tf->flags & ATA_TFLAG_ISADDR; - if (tf->ctl != ap->last_ctl) { - iowrite8(tf->ctl, ioaddr->ctl_addr); - ap->last_ctl = tf->ctl; - ata_wait_idle(ap); - } + /* + * The relevant bits in the ctl register are HOB, SRST and nIEN. + * HOB is only used by ata_tf_read(). + * For SRST, soft reset is not the duty of tf_load. + * For nIEN, explicit ->irq_on() and ->irq_off are provided. + * That's why tf->ctl is ignored here. + */ if (is_addr && (tf->flags & ATA_TFLAG_LBA48)) { iowrite8(tf->hob_feature, ioaddr->feature_addr); diff -Nrup 05_rename_thaw_lldd/drivers/ata/pata_scc.c 06_tf_load_cleanup/drivers/ata/pata_scc.c --- 05_rename_thaw_lldd/drivers/ata/pata_scc.c 2007-07-07 10:49:30.000000000 +0800 +++ 06_tf_load_cleanup/drivers/ata/pata_scc.c 2007-07-07 10:50:10.000000000 +0800 @@ -271,12 +271,6 @@ static void scc_tf_load (struct ata_port struct ata_ioports *ioaddr = &ap->ioaddr; unsigned int is_addr = tf->flags & ATA_TFLAG_ISADDR; - if (tf->ctl != ap->last_ctl) { - out_be32(ioaddr->ctl_addr, tf->ctl); - ap->last_ctl = tf->ctl; - ata_wait_idle(ap); - } - if (is_addr && (tf->flags & ATA_TFLAG_LBA48)) { out_be32(ioaddr->feature_addr, tf->hob_feature); out_be32(ioaddr->nsect_addr, tf->hob_nsect); diff -Nrup 05_rename_thaw_lldd/drivers/ata/sata_svw.c 06_tf_load_cleanup/drivers/ata/sata_svw.c --- 05_rename_thaw_lldd/drivers/ata/sata_svw.c 2007-07-07 10:49:30.000000000 +0800 +++ 06_tf_load_cleanup/drivers/ata/sata_svw.c 2007-07-07 10:50:10.000000000 +0800 @@ -125,11 +125,6 @@ static void k2_sata_tf_load(struct ata_p struct ata_ioports *ioaddr = &ap->ioaddr; unsigned int is_addr = tf->flags & ATA_TFLAG_ISADDR; - if (tf->ctl != ap->last_ctl) { - writeb(tf->ctl, ioaddr->ctl_addr); - ap->last_ctl = tf->ctl; - ata_wait_idle(ap); - } if (is_addr && (tf->flags & ATA_TFLAG_LBA48)) { writew(tf->feature | (((u16)tf->hob_feature) << 8), ioaddr->feature_addr); diff -Nrup 05_rename_thaw_lldd/drivers/ata/sata_vsc.c 06_tf_load_cleanup/drivers/ata/sata_vsc.c --- 05_rename_thaw_lldd/drivers/ata/sata_vsc.c 2007-07-07 10:49:30.000000000 +0800 +++ 06_tf_load_cleanup/drivers/ata/sata_vsc.c 2007-07-07 10:50:10.000000000 +0800 @@ -137,36 +137,19 @@ static void vsc_irq_on(struct ata_port * } -static void vsc_intr_mask_update(struct ata_port *ap, u8 ctl) -{ - void __iomem *mask_addr; - u8 mask; - - mask_addr = ap->host->iomap[VSC_MMIO_BAR] + - VSC_SATA_INT_MASK_OFFSET + ap->port_no; - mask = readb(mask_addr); - if (ctl & ATA_NIEN) - mask |= 0x80; - else - mask &= 0x7F; - writeb(mask, mask_addr); -} - - static void vsc_sata_tf_load(struct ata_port *ap, const struct ata_taskfile *tf) { struct ata_ioports *ioaddr = &ap->ioaddr; unsigned int is_addr = tf->flags & ATA_TFLAG_ISADDR; /* - * The only thing the ctl register is used for is SRST. - * That is not enabled or disabled via tf_load. - * However, if ATA_NIEN is changed, then we need to change the interrupt register. + * The relevant bits in the ctl register are HOB, SRST and nIEN. + * HOB is only used by ata_tf_read(). + * For SRST, soft reset is not the duty of tf_load. + * For nIEN, explicit ->irq_on() and ->irq_off are provided. + * That's why tf->ctl is ignored here. */ - if ((tf->ctl & ATA_NIEN) != (ap->last_ctl & ATA_NIEN)) { - ap->last_ctl = tf->ctl; - vsc_intr_mask_update(ap, tf->ctl & ATA_NIEN); - } + if (is_addr && (tf->flags & ATA_TFLAG_LBA48)) { writew(tf->feature | (((u16)tf->hob_feature) << 8), ioaddr->feature_addr); - 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
