Thanks to its age, ATA is very susceptible to IRQ delivery problems in
both directions - lost and spurious interrupts. In traditional PATA,
the IRQ line is ultimately out of the controller and driver's control.
Even relatively new SATA isn't free from these issues. Many
controllers still emulate the traditional IDE interface which doesn't
have reliable way to indicate interrupt pending state and there also
is an issue regarding the interpretation of nIEN on both sides of the
cable.
Most of these problems can be worked around by using the new IRQ
expecting mechanism without adding noticeable overhead. In ATA,
almost all operations are initiated by the host and the controller
signals progress or completion using IRQ. IRQ expecting can easily be
added in libata core and applied to all libata drivers.
