[PATCH 4/6] libata: consider errors not associated with commands for speed down

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



libata EH used to ignore errors not associated with commands when
determining whether speed down is necessary or not.  This leads to the
following problems.

* Errors not associated with commands can occur indefinitely without
  libata EH taking corrective actions.

* Upstream link errors don't trigger speed down when PMP is attached
  to it and commands issued to downstream device trigger errors on the
  upstream link.

This patch makes ata_eh_link_autopsy() consider errors not associated
with command for speed down.
