Sorry Aaron, but I have left Microsoft Open Source team for a while. Due to policy limitations, I can't touch Linux kernel source now. Hi Hashir, could you help find current owner of our HDD driver to verify this fix? This is a ata-acpi module bug I reported last year. Our daily BVT in linux-next tree should be able to handle this verification Thanks, Fuzhou -----Original Message----- From: Aaron Lu [mailto:aaron.lu@xxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, May 30, 2012 1:43 PM To: Lin Ming; Fuzhou Chen Cc: Alan Cox; Jeff Garzik; David Woodhouse; Holger Macht; Matthew Garrett; linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; linux-scsi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; linux-ide@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx; linux-acpi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [PATCH v4 0/13] SATA ZPODD support On Tue, May 29, 2012 at 08:32:49PM +0800, Lin Ming wrote: > On Mon, May 28, 2012 at 5:54 PM, Alan Cox <alan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > >> Have you fixed the fact that Matthews patches broke things like > >> pata_acpi last time ?

Here is the patch, apply on top of the ZPODD patch set. Hi Fuzhou, Can you please give it a test? Thanks. I tested on my system with a ATI IDE controller and it could work with pata_acpi module. diff --git a/drivers/ata/libata-acpi.c b/drivers/ata/libata-acpi.c index 6de8f32..c53266a 100644 --- a/drivers/ata/libata-acpi.c +++ b/drivers/ata/libata-acpi.c @@ -59,7 +59,18 @@ acpi_handle ata_ap_acpi_handle(struct ata_port *ap) { if (ap->flags & ATA_FLAG_ACPI_SATA) return NULL; - return DEVICE_ACPI_HANDLE(&ap->scsi_host->shost_gendev); + + /* + * If acpi bind operation has already happened, we can get the handle + * for the port by checking the corresponding scsi_host device's + * firmware node, otherwise we will need to find out the handle from + * its parent's acpi node. + */ + if (ap->scsi_host) + return DEVICE_ACPI_HANDLE(&ap->scsi_host->shost_gendev); + else + return acpi_get_child(DEVICE_ACPI_HANDLE(ap->host->dev), + ap->port_no); } EXPORT_SYMBOL(ata_ap_acpi_handle); -Aaron > > Thanks for the info. > Lin Ming > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" > in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo > info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html > -- 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
