[PATCH] libata: skip old error history when counting probe trials

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

 



Commit d902747 introduced ATA_EFLAG_OLD_ER to mark entries in the
error ring as cleared.

But ata_count_probe_trials_cb() didn't check this flag and it still
counts the old error history. So wrong probe trials count is returned
and it causes problem, for example, SATA link speed is slowed down from
3.0Gbps to 1.5Gbps.

Fix it by checking ATA_EFLAG_OLD_ER in ata_count_probe_trials_cb().
