Hi, Good work, I'm also working on ZPODD for AMD platforms, some comments below.

It provides a way to power off unused CDROM. I don't see anywhere in the sata 3.1 spec mentioned how to power off the cdrom, the only relevant content is the newly defined device attention pin, which is used to notify the host that this powered off device needs attention. Or do I miss something? > > CDROM is powered off by executing ACPI power resource's _OFF method. > AMD has a different implementation to power off the CDROM, I'll need to prepare another patch based on yours. > When CDROM is powered off(D3Cold state), inserting disk will trigger a > wakeup event(GPE).

If it does not support that, once it is powered off, it can't be power up back. So I don't think device_run_wake is enough to set the zpodd flag, unless your firmware has done the check and created the acpi table according to the result. Is it the case?
