ATA devices in SLEEP mode don't respond to any commands. SRST is necessary to wake it up. Till now, when a command is issued to a device in SLEEP mode, the command times out, which makes EH reset the device and retry the command after that, causing a long delay. This patch makes libata track SLEEP state and issue SRST automatically if a command is about to be issued to a device in SLEEP. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Bruce Allen <ballen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Andrew Paprocki <andrew@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- This patch is against #upstream + relocate-and-fix-post-command-processing patch (http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ide/24001) The infinite loop with the previous patch wasn't caused by bug in sleep state tracking. It was happening because post-command processing was being performed for commands which are being retried from EH, so what happened was. 1. device is flagged SLEEPING 2. SLEEP is issued, as device is sleeping, EH is rescheduled against the qc for SLEEP. 3. EH kicks in and wakes up the device and clears SLEEPING. 4. EH finishes up failed qc which triggers post-command processing and sets SLEEPING. 5. SCSI command is retried, go back to #2. relocate-and-fix-post-command-processing patch fixes the original bug in post-command processing and this patch doesn't cause infinite loop anymore. drivers/ata/libata-core.c | 12 ++++++++++++ drivers/ata/libata-eh.c | 4 +++- include/linux/ata.h | 1 + include/linux/libata.h | 1 + 4 files changed, 17 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) Index: work/include/linux/ata.h =================================================================== --- work.orig/include/linux/ata.h +++ work/include/linux/ata.h @@ -180,6 +180,7 @@ enum { ATA_CMD_VERIFY_EXT = 0x42, ATA_CMD_STANDBYNOW1 = 0xE0, ATA_CMD_IDLEIMMEDIATE = 0xE1, + ATA_CMD_SLEEP = 0xE6, ATA_CMD_INIT_DEV_PARAMS = 0x91, ATA_CMD_READ_NATIVE_MAX = 0xF8, ATA_CMD_READ_NATIVE_MAX_EXT = 0x27, Index: work/include/linux/libata.h =================================================================== --- work.orig/include/linux/libata.h +++ work/include/linux/libata.h @@ -138,6 +138,7 @@ enum { ATA_DFLAG_PIO = (1 << 12), /* device limited to PIO mode */ ATA_DFLAG_NCQ_OFF = (1 << 13), /* device limited to non-NCQ mode */ ATA_DFLAG_SPUNDOWN = (1 << 14), /* XXX: for spindown_compat */ + ATA_DFLAG_SLEEPING = (1 << 15), /* device is sleeping */ ATA_DFLAG_INIT_MASK = (1 << 16) - 1, ATA_DFLAG_DETACH = (1 << 16), Index: work/drivers/ata/libata-core.c =================================================================== --- work.orig/drivers/ata/libata-core.c +++ work/drivers/ata/libata-core.c @@ -5630,6 +5630,10 @@ void ata_qc_complete(struct ata_queued_c ehi->dev_action[dev->devno] |= ATA_EH_REVALIDATE; ata_port_schedule_eh(ap); break; + + case ATA_CMD_SLEEP: + dev->flags |= ATA_DFLAG_SLEEPING; + break; } __ata_qc_complete(qc); @@ -5769,6 +5773,14 @@ void ata_qc_issue(struct ata_queued_cmd qc->flags &= ~ATA_QCFLAG_DMAMAP; } + /* if device is sleeping, schedule softreset and abort the link */ + if (unlikely(qc->dev->flags & ATA_DFLAG_SLEEPING)) { + link->eh_info.action |= ATA_EH_SOFTRESET; + ata_ehi_push_desc(&link->eh_info, "waking up from sleep"); + ata_link_abort(link); + return; + } + ap->ops->qc_prep(qc); qc->err_mask |= ap->ops->qc_issue(qc); Index: work/drivers/ata/libata-eh.c =================================================================== --- work.orig/drivers/ata/libata-eh.c +++ work/drivers/ata/libata-eh.c @@ -2208,9 +2208,11 @@ int ata_eh_reset(struct ata_link *link, ata_link_for_each_dev(dev, link) { /* After the reset, the device state is PIO 0 * and the controller state is undefined. - * Record the mode. + * Reset also wakes up drives from sleeping + * mode. */ dev->pio_mode = XFER_PIO_0; + dev->flags &= ~ATA_DFLAG_SLEEPING; if (ata_link_offline(link)) continue; - 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
